HOME REMEDIES: COMMON HOUSELEEK

 

St Hildegard writes:

"When God created man, a different type of earth was used to form him. Henceforth, all substances were subject to man, because they sensed that in him was life, and they endeavoured to aid him in him in all his efforts, and man's aim, in turn, was to help them."


COMMON HOUSELEEK (SEMPERVIVUM TECTORUM)

Common houseleek is warm and not beneficial for man, because it is greasy - it would cause lecherousness to the point that you go insane. For a remedy against MALE DYSFUNCTION you soak common houseleek in goat's milk that it is entirely saturated by the fluid. Then you cook the mixture, add a few eggs, and consume it. Take this daily for three to five days. This medicine does not help against infertility in women.

Against DEAFNESS take human milk of a woman who has given birth to a boy ten to twelve weeks prior, mix in the juice of common houseleek and regularly put three or four drops of the solution into the ears.

(From: St Hildegard of Bingen, Physica)
