Hogwort has been known to leave a rash on your skin so use gloves when handling. It is toxic to ingest. You can however burn this herb as a substitute for the over harvested white sage and use it to clear negative energy. This herb can be used for determination and willpower and is great to bring about necessary change. This herb is wildcrafted by me and comes to you in a 2"x3" clear plastic bag that I fill up.
