A note on this entry
Jupiter/Air, the herb of wisdom and purification; thujone makes it the one kitchen herb to treat with real caution. Avoid in pregnancy and epilepsy, do not take it internally, and do not confuse it with white sage (Salvia apiana), which is overharvested and culturally restricted.
