American pokeweed isn’t a “danger plant” — it’s an old Indigenous medicine our elders used with precision and respect. 💜
Some plants are strong, and that’s the point.
Poison and medicine are the SAME SPIRIT in different doses.
Poke moves the blood, the lymph, the stuck emotions.
It paints, it purifies, it awakens. 🧬
**This is a small-dosage plant, guided by elders who understood its power, timing, and preparation**
Not for casual use — but for those who know how to listen, Poke is a teacher.
My elder teacher was the plant itself. First met in Georgia, and now in my backyard here in California.
I’ve watched it grow for six months, and now I honor its beauty, listen closely, and approach it with deep respect, to now share with you.
