Ginger root tea may help promote gastric emptying and support digestive enzymes, making is a helpful companion for people with cold, stagnant conditions, nausea, or sluggish gut motility.

Many practitioners consider ginger a magical catalyst and include it as a powerful accelerator for rituals, meditation, or creative pursuits. It has been used to activate the senses, encourage vitality, and kindle a person’s internal fire. The connection ginger has with the sign of Aries is reflected in its use for developing deeper passion and love, fostering a more robust financial situation, and grounding in confidence and courage.

Ginger was one of the first spices exported from Asia, as early as 406 BCE, and Chinese ships often brought potted ginger plants along to prevent scurvy during long voyages. This may help to explain part of its relationship with the Root Chakra, and why it is still used for spells, power objects, or rituals related to protection during travel. It has also been used by entrepreneurs and creatives trying to call on their self-confidence and charisma, and the ability to internally align so they can respond with clarity. Ginger Root invites you to trust your instincts, ignite your inner fire, and take bold, purposeful steps forward—especially when life calls for swift, decisive action.
