Intro
I was commented towards the fact that i was polluting a thread, and yes that was true,
but most things i write seem not really interesting to others, so i thought it would be just a few lines in between,

From the Treat and Taste herbs blog:
"There are over thirty varieties of angelica but the one that is recognized for its medicinal qualities in Germany, Switzerland and Austria is archangelic. There are many stories surrounding its name but it certainly was used in pagan festivals, as there is a festival in parts of Germany when villagers go into towns carrying angelica stems and singing in a long-forgotten language words learned in childhood, but not understood even by the singers any more."
From the Journal of Nutrition, Pharmacology, Neurological Diseases:
"This herb [Angelica archangelica] blooms about May 8, (old calendar), St. Michael's feast day, and is so named in his honor. Even though this herb is named in honor of a Christian angel many Angelica Festivals are held in Livonia, East Prussia, and Pomerania, and celebrated in a pagan manner, with dance and chanting of ancient ditties in languages no longer understood."
From Rodale's encyclopedia:
“...chanting ancient songs whose words they do not understand. Is this a holy ritual gone pagan? Is it a tradition maintained since pre-Christian times? If they know the words to the songs, why don’t they know what they mean?”
