Anecdotal: Solidago is another dazzling and diverse species with a wide range of applications. Its spirit is invoked to address spiritual pain and attrition of spiritual energy as they might relate to the losses of expression and enthusiasm for life. It is appropriate when these conditions have a tendency to create situations that lead to injury, distress or loss of productive rest. In hunter-gatherer societies it is particularly appropriate for children that are reluctant to speak or laugh. Solidago flowers have also been entreated to dispel paralyzing weakness and restore strength. It is revivifying and believed an excellent exorcismal against the spirit of illness. The same properties are rolled into dispelling undesired love medicine. Solidago can be woven into baskets that can be used in related rituals. When Solidago comes into bloom it is time to curtail hunting and come home to bring in the fall harvest. Solidago is a facilitator of challenging rebirths into new lives.
