This listing is for one packet of 'Heart of the Moon' Loose Leaf Herbal Tisane, from The heART of Ritual.

This seasonal tisane was blended to soften the edges of a hard year – to quench the thirst of those who have been walking through fire, and to call you back to the hearth of your own heart. A motherly cup, both soothing and strengthening, it is made with rose, linden blossom, lemon balm, skullcap, vervain, mallow, haw berries, and slices of homegrown orange, pink grapefruit, and clementine.

The flavour is floral and gently sweet, with rose offering tenderness and uplift, linden a honeyed calm, and mallow a softening roundness. Lemon balm brings a bright citrus note that clears heaviness, while haw berries add a quiet depth from the hedgerow. Skullcap and vervain settle the nerves and steady the mind, weaving subtle grounding into the blend. The citrus slices add a vivid burst of brightness – tangy, sweet, and sunlit – carrying both delicious flavour and a symbolic thread of empowerment, connected to the sacral centre and the reclaiming of personal power.

Therapeutically, this is a tea for cooling and calming the system, easing tension, supporting the heart, and bringing gentle regulation to the nervous system. Each herb carries its own gift – rose for the emotional heart, haw berries for the physical heart, skullcap for restless thoughts, linden and lemon balm for soothing stress, vervain for clearing overwhelm, mallow for moistening dryness and restoring flow, citrus for vitality and resilience.

To sip Heart of the Moon is to take part in a quiet ritual – a pause where the body is nourished and the spirit reminded of its place in the wider pattern. It is an invitation to lay burdens down, to feel yourself held, and to remember that even in times of fire and hardship, there is a gentleness waiting to tend you – and a spark of strength ready to rise again from within.

  • Steep your tea blend in hot water for 10 minutes before drinking. The quantity of tea that you add to your pot depends on how strong you like your tea and the size of your teapot - in my case, I use 1-2 tablespoons of loose leaf tea in my teapot, which is 1.8L in size. I can then refill that teapot up to three times throughout the day, so receive alot of nourishing herbal goodness from those couple of spoons of dried tea.

THE FRAMEWORK FOR THIS COLLECTION

Our Winter/Earth Element Collection arrives into the season of Samhain – that threshold between the last new moon of the dying Celtic year in October, astronomical Samhain, and the first new moon of the year to come in November. It is here that endings and beginnings lie folded together – a dreamtime of moons that leads us into the deepest dark – asking us to walk slowly, to walk in Earth time. 

 

This is not the hurried clock-time of the everyday. It is slow time – deep time – recorded in bedrock and fault-line, in layers pressed through clay and shale. As the earth keeps her history in stone and strata, so we carry memory in bone. The land is our larger body – marrow and mountain, clay and skin, each carrying memory. To enter this season is to enter those depths, to map again the contour lines of the inner ground, to feel where the body holds fractures, pressure, weight-bearing, release. The work is slow. The work is old. Stone remembers, and so do we. Our bodies are cairns of remembrance.

Between Samhain and Solstice we are pilgrims moving through inner hollows and chambers of the soul. It is sanctuary time, a time of reverence and devotion, where prayer is not passive but visceral and embodied – where we kneel not before idols but within the tabernacle of our own being. The ember of light is entrusted to us here, and it must be guarded with care – fanned in trust, sheltered in hope, nourished with care, until it kindles to flame and warmth.

Samhain is also the season of surrender. To grieve what has passed in the twelve months gone. To honour ancestors, yes, but also to lay down the burdens of the year, the losses and thresholds crossed, the shocks and griefs that linger. As leaves return to soil, so sorrow returns to earth, darkening into humus that feeds what will come. In the body, this work is felt in the earth element – in the musculoskeletal frame, in the gut’s deep work of breaking down and letting go. To release is to create space, and to hold is to become heavy. The earth teaches us this balance, for she both receives and yields in the same breath.

 

This is the annual pilgrimage to the soul’s inner shrine – beyond one life, beyond one line of ancestry. It is the thread that connects us with stone and to soil, with grandmother and grandfather, with all who came before and all who will come after. In this time-out-of-time we reweave ourselves into that thread, into the north, into the slow, enduring rhythm of earth itself. And from that ground – from a living tapestry of blood and bone and surrender – the Solstice light is born again. A flame at the heart of winter.
