Lady's Mantle (Alchemilla vulgaris), also known as Our Lady's Mantle, is a plant associated with Venus and closely connected with the history of alchemy. The droplets collected from its leaves were valued by alchemists, who regarded them as exceptionally pure and incorporated them into work on transmutation and the Philosopher's Stone.
In ritual preparations, lady's mantle naturally accompanies work involving alchemy, transmutation, transformation and changes of state. Its association with Venus also makes it suitable for workings dedicated to beauty, harmony and Venusian influences.
Its old name, Our Lady's Mantle , also reflects its association with the Virgin Mary and reinforces its feminine symbolism within European traditions. This dual history, between Christian symbolism and alchemical practice, makes it a particularly interesting herb for transformation work.
Selected and packaged ready for resale, lady's mantle is a distinctive choice for specialist shops seeking ritual herbs associated with alchemy, transmutation, transformation and Venusian workings.
