Yarrow (Achillea millefolium), a member of the Astaraceae family, is a highly revered medicinal herb by both humans, companion plants and hover-flies alike. In the ‘wild’, yarrow can be found growing along roadsides, in ditches and geographical boundaries, signifying some of yarrow’s strongest virtues of protection and boundary-setting. Yarrow is also a great protector of its neighbours in the garden, by attracting beneficial insects to ward off pests and acting like a living mulch, protecting the soil and its inhabitants from weather exposure and degradation.
Achillea is derived from the Greek demigod, physician and warrior, Achilles. The legend tells of his mother, a sea nymph named Thetis, holding Achilles by the ankle and dipping him in yarrow tea as a baby, with the intention to protect him and provide him with immortality. During the Trojan war, Achilles was said to use yarrow to heal the battle wounds of his fellow army men, helping to stop bleeding and heal the vascular tissue (which is still a major method of use today). Unfortunately Achilles met his demise during this war by being struck through the ankle (Achilles heel) with an arrow, in the spot where his mother’s hand kept the yarrow tea from blessing his skin.
Yarrow’s flower essence is particularly helpful for empathic people with hypersensitivities - those who struggle to create and/or maintain a protective shield from surrounding, overwhelming or malicious energies and frequencies. Adding a few drops of yarrow’s essence to a body/aura spray can assist in reducing your susceptibility to energy leakage and absorption, helping to mend any damage caused to your energy field and establish strong personal boundaries.

The flower essence of Yarrow is made through solar infusion where the flower’s vibration is imprinted within the water’s energetic matrix. This 15mL bottle is technically a stock bottle, meaning you can further dilute the stock essence to make dosage bottles [read more on Flower Essences, including their method of action, how to use them & how to make up a dosage bottle]. Each stock bottle contains 7 drops of the original mother essence of Yarrow.
The virtues of Yarrow can be obtained through ingesting the essence, anointing talismans and candles, and adding a few drops to a room or body spray and floor wash.
