La Agripalma,
dedicated to Florence Jauriqui Rodriguez 1944-2013. Gracias Señora para los libros. Thank you for the house and books you gifted me. https://open.substack.com/pub/wildherbways/p/motherwort-la-agripalma?utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web
La Agripalma cardiaca, is a traditional remedio of la península ibérica and brought to Turtle island by the heroic Conquistadores to our Nuevo España, the New Mexico. I thank the unique situation of herbal knowledge that is a huge mix, of European herbalism from Spain, going back through the Islamic tradition that preserved the ancient Greek. Immediately upon arriving the Spanish began translating the Aztec, Mayan and local herbal tradition of new world plants into a written tradition.
La Agripalma is for the benefit and blessing of the weaker sex, our women folk trusted with the sacred duty of preserving our race, birthing children. Yet not only for the retiring weaker sex who birth our children, make us sandwiches, clean and keep the home, doctor us and comfort menfolk with gifts of love, kisses and caresses la agripalma is for their men folk and children too. Agripalma is a wellbeing herb made for our specific biospirit. Agripalma is an herb for the proud latina, her family, her husband and whoever supports the adjacent sphere of wellbeing. Agripalma guards and nourishes many systems in the body and is an excellent component of nurturing formulas which we shall explore.
La agripalma comes from Acer from the Latin word acer, acris, meaning "prickly" and palma, meaning "palm”. Agripalma being the prickly hand also known as Mano de Santa Maria, the hand of most blessed holy mother Maria, mother of God and nuestra madre. Maria miraculously appeared to Santiago the apostle of Jesus at Zaragoza España in the year 40A.D. as the Lady de Pillar and like Guadalupe brought many gifts of flowers, along with this healing bitter herb, cardiaca. The Mother of God, who gave birth to our Saviour Jesuchristo, rules and guides the womb, the delicate insides of the feminine, of the beautiful Christian mothers of New Spain New Mexico as before, as today and always promoting the divine science of wellbeing. How good to celebrate the men of God known to themselves as the true tribes of Israel, divinely appointed to bring not only civilization and salvation in Señor JesuChristo to the New world but also brought with them the great herbal tradition of Los Remedios, along with the Holy Latin mass, the worship of Maria the angels and todos los santos, for the wellbeing of us as a people divinely appointed to continue the blessing of wellbeing for future generations. Even today the great men and women the children of Cortez and Pizarro, by the good will and generosity of the Terrazas family, being the grand children of those heroic Conquistadores who drove the islamic infidels from Iberia in the 800 year war in AD1492, and saving all Europa from slavery. We still celebrate the crowning of Maria La primera de Mayo, May day May 1st. We continue to pray the traditional Latin mass, the very same prayers said by Cortez and his journey to Nuevo España. Even though these men built the church at Santa Clara with their own hands they cannot today enter the church and practice openly the old latin mass in their own churches as part of the systematic erasure. But by the generosity of the Terrazas family of Santa Clara, we are able to celebrate the old mass like the first Christians did in the catacombs, in a funeral home, which is actually a good thing to be reminded of death, not only our own mortality but also the sacrifice of Jesus, the old Latin Tridentine mass of the Conquistadores, being banned by those occupying the previous catholic churches of the mining district today.
La agripalma, cola de león, Mano de Santa Maria, cardiaca, here it was found again in la mes de Julio in the year of our Lord A.D. 2025. Explained as it was by the traditional of oral herbalism, mano de ojo, by the work of a heroic teacher Michael Cottingham, through the grace of Nuestra Señora de los Remedios, who as queen rules all the hierbas, all the goings and comings in las montañas de sol, the rain, zig zag lightnings and dew that enliven the earth in a good way. La agripalma, is found within the old districts of mining, near the homesteads where the miners' wives lived. The women using the hierbas, like all good womanly mothers are instructors of children keepers of the ancient old tradition. All cultura comes from the female in the home without which the biospirit circle is broken via erasesure, which is precisely the goal of their feminism, and the diabolical disorientation that was prophesied at the Cova de Iria in 1917 by our Blessed Mother on the iberian peninsula.
La agripalma comes from the Mano de Santa Maria, cola de león Cardiaca, it being the lion’s tail Leonurus, Leo the lion, by way of Stella maris, the morning star, venus who by sacred mystery is also Mary the mother of God, the motherwort. Another name for agripalma is Cola de león, tail of Leo the lion. The lion is and was the most ancient heraldry symbol of España, of old and new spain. The lion tail herb refers to bravery of the heart. A steady heart, unflinching loyalty to one’s tribe, one’s family, blood and soil, folk first is the meaning of the virtue alluded to in this heart herb.
”Para nosotros, como pueblo, lo más importante es: donde estamos, abogando por la plenitud de nuestro ser, significa que yo, como nosotros, estoy ahora mismo, en el lugar correcto, en el momento correcto. Haciendo lo correcto de la manera correcta. Porque nuestro Padre Dios Yahvé ha planeado un bienestar bueno y hermoso en el nombre de nuestro Señor Jesucristo, por el poder del Espíritu Santo, por intercesión de Santa María, Madre de Dios y Madre nuestra, como nosotros, como pueblo. María, Reina del Cielo y de la Tierra, María Reina de las Hierbas Silvestres, que envías rocío celestial para que las hierbas silvestres crezcan perfectamente, poniendo la medicina vegetal en nuestras manos.
For us, as a people, the most important thing is: where we are, advocating for the fullness of our being, means that I, as a we and us, am right now, in the right place, at the right time. Doing the right thing in the right way. Because our Father God Yahweh has planned a good and beautiful well-being in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, by the power of the Holy Ghost, through the intercession of Holy Mary, Mother of God and our Mother, like us, as a people. Mary, Queen of Heaven and Earth, Mary Queen of Wild Herb Ways, who sends heavenly dew so that wild herb ways grow perfectly, placing plant medicine in our hand.” -Genius World Teacher Wild Herb Ways Paul Manski
Many times with herbs you will find as you study them under the genius world teacher wild herb ways, by the grace of the Holy Ghost, spiritu santo wind that powers ultimate courage, you will find this distance synchronicity of plant person and place. By this I mean take note of the TCM traditional Chinese Medicine concept of agripalma. Here I will be quoting from the magazine, China Today
2021-06-04 13:26:00Source: China Today Author：QIU XINNIAN
Most of the same talking points about La agripalma as a remedio from the paloma blanca tradition, from the Greeks and Romans 300BC, assorted books Culpeper 1650 England, Maude Grieves 1930, Matthew Wood 2008, TCM traditional Chinese Medicine, and the oral teachings of Michael Roland Shaw Moore 1941-2009 South west school of Botanical medicine, Michael Cottingham Voyage Botanica oral field Notes 2025, and the magical realism of genius world teacher wild herb ways are nearly identical. The reason for this identity is the personal encounter person plant place.
An ancient story about the Siberian lioness

Author：QIU XINNIAN*
“Siberian motherwort (Herba leonuri) is an annual or biennial shrubby herb, nearly a meter tall, with opposite, lance-shaped leaves and red, purple, or orange flowers. It is characterized by its mildly cold nature, a spicy and bitter taste, and is beneficial for the heart, liver, and bladder. This herb was included in the Chinese pharmacopoeia over 2,000 years ago to stimulate blood circulation, especially during the menstrual or postpartum period. Hence, its Chinese name, yimucao, literally translates as "herb beneficial to mothers." Its tender shoots are edible as vegetables, called longxucai in Chinese, which means "dragon's beard vegetable." There is an interesting story about the origin of these names.
Tradition says that Siberian lion's mane is a beneficial herb for mothers.
The search for a daughter
In Beijing, there is a huge, world-famous historical monument: the Temple of Heaven, built in 1420 during the Ming Dynasty. It covers an area of 273 hectares and was the sacred place where emperors dedicated offerings to heaven and prayed for good harvests. Before the temple was built, the land was barren. According to legend, a very poor peasant family lived there: a father, mother, and daughter. The father died of an illness, leaving the mother and 16-year-old daughter in even more miserable living conditions.
The illness didn't come alone. The mother, due to the heavy family burden and longing for her husband, became ill, and her condition worsened every day. No doctor was able to help her. She was very worried about her daughter's future, and her daughter, understandably, was even more worried about her mother's health. The young woman then decided to climb North Mountain to look for some medicinal herbs for her mother. When she was a child, her father had told her that on that mountain there were many medicinal herbs that cured all kinds of illnesses, but that they were hidden in very high valleys, and to find them one had to climb a long way along dangerous paths, which made the task even more difficult. After the autumn harvest, the girl entrusted her mother's care to a neighbor, and with a bag of provisions, she left home for the north. One day she came to a narrow pass between two mountains and began to think about how to climb. At that moment, an old man with a white beard emerged from the gorge and, upon seeing her, asked with a smile: "My girl, why have you come alone to this high valley?" The young woman told him what had happened to her mother and that she was looking for medicinal herbs to cure her, so he asked if such herbs existed on the mountain.
The old man replied, “Yes, there are.” “Grandpa, how can I climb the mountain?” she asked. Pointing to the gorge, the old man explained, “Climb the mountain this way. You will turn left nine times, then right nine times. When you are thirsty, you will drink water from the spring. When you are hungry, you will eat pine nuts. When you see ‘heaven on earth,’ you will have the panacea in your hands.” The girl listened attentively to the old man’s words, as if they were a chant of verses, with her head bowed. She didn’t understand what he meant by “heaven on earth.” She wanted to ask him, but when she raised her head, she saw that the old man had already entered the valley.
The girl followed the old man's directions. She climbed and turned left and right so many times, unable to remember how many days had passed. She drank water from the spring and ate pine nuts. One day she reached the top of a mountain, where she saw a lake. She was amazed by the crystal-clear water. Suddenly, she heard two girls talking behind her. When she turned around, she saw two very beautiful girls: one dressed in a white skirt and the other in a yellow skirt embroidered with plum blossoms. The girl in the white skirt asked her, "Sister, why are you so surprised? Don't you know the 'little heaven on earth' of these mountains?"
Upon hearing that name, the young woman was overjoyed: “Sisters, do you have any healing herbs here? Please save my mother!”
The girl in the yellow skirt said, “Don’t worry. The old man with the white beard has already told us everything. Here is a bag of medicinal herbs. Take them home and cook them for your mother, who will soon be cured. There are also seeds in the bag, which you can plant in your land. If any woman suffers from the same illness as your mother, she will no longer have to worry.”
The girl thanked them both profusely and began to descend the mountain happily. After taking a few steps, she turned to look at them once more, but all she saw was a white parrot and a yellow deer with plum blossoms.
The young woman did her best to return home quickly and boil the herbs. The decoction was good for her mother, who was cured within a few days. The girl was very happy and sowed the seeds at the edge of her own land. The herbs grew year after year. In spring the seeds germinated, in summer the herbs grew lush, and in autumn they bore fruit.
Many patients used the herbs and were cured. They were all very happy, but there was no name for the herbs, so they gathered together and decided to call them yimucao, or "herb beneficial to mothers," because the girl had found them to cure her mother.
Many years later, Emperor Zhu Di of the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644) wanted to implore the God of Heaven to grant him a good harvest every year, so he ordered the construction of a grand temple. Thus, the Temple of Heaven was built in 1420. However, lion bushes continued to grow luxuriantly in the vacant lots between the buildings. The emperor was angered by the sight of so many wild weeds among the magnificent structures and ordered them to be removed.
However, a minister prostrated himself before the emperor and said, “Your Majesty, these herbs are not wild. They are called ‘dragon’s beard herbs.’ His Majesty is the dragon. If you remove these herbs, His Majesty will no longer have a beard.” The emperor then rescinded the order. From that moment on, the young shoot of the snowdrop was sometimes called “dragon’s beard herb.”
Main functions Siberian motherwort can strengthen the blood and resolve blood stasis. It is indicated for epimenorrhea, dysmenorrhea, amenorrhea, postpartum abdominal pain, and swelling and pain from external injuries. It is also used to stimulate urination and helps resolve edema.
According to recent discoveries, Siberian lion's manure contains essential oils, tannins, resins, choline, flavonoids, glycosides, leonurine, leonurinine, and small amounts of alkaloids such as stachydrine (betonycin and thuricin), which is why it is indicated for menopausal discomfort, accompanied by hot flashes, anxiety, restlessness, and difficulty breathing. It is equally effective against flatulence and gastrointestinal disorders. It is also used as a cardiac tonic along with valerian, hawthorn, and arnica. Another important function is its defense against external microorganisms. Modern science has confirmed that motherwort is an extremely important medicinal plant.

The above extended long quote is From “China Today” an online and print magazine. Article by by Qiu Xinnian
This is exactly what Culpeper the English euro herbalist writing in 1650 wrote, Culpepper wrote of Motherwort:
'Venus owns this herb and it is under Leo. There is no better herb to drive melancholy vapours from the heart, to strengthen it and make the mind cheerful, blithe and merry. May be kept in a syrup, or conserve, therefore the Latins call it cardiaca.... It cleansethe the chest of cold phlegm, oppressing it and killeth worms in the belly. It is of good use to warm and dry up the cold humours, to digest and disperse them that are settled in the veins, joints and sinews of the body and to help cramps and convulsions.' Venus in Culpeper is a codeword for Mary the mother of God which was a deplatformed concept under the protestant revolution.
And Gerard says:
'Divers commend it against infirmities of the heart. Moreover the same is commended for green wounds; it is also a remedy against certain diseases in cattell, as the cough and murreine, and for that cause divers husbandmen oftentimes much desire it.'
In Macer's Herbal we find 'Motherwort' mentioned as one of the herbs which were considered all-powerful against 'wykked sperytis.' The best way of giving it is in the form of a conserve, made from the young tops, says one writer. It may be given in decoctions, or a strong infusion, but is very unpleasant to take that way. The infusion is made from 1 OZ. of herb to a pint of boiling water, taken in wineglassful doses.
Lamiaceae, antiguamente Labiatae
Maude Grieve “A Modern Herbal” written published 1931. For Old World European herbs, Maude Grieve has hands down some of the best, readily accessible descriptions and understanding in book form, of the herbal usage of biospirit euro plants like La agripalma motherwort. Motherwort is a plant in the protoeuro tradition of european western herbalism which stretches back to our neanderthal heritage before the pole flip of 41,000. As such motherwort is in that strong niche of plants that facilitated and facilitates the process of us becoming a people becoming an us, a wellbeing way herb.
Wherever our people went in their bird song migrations they brought this plant. The name motherwort says a great deal about the herb. Mother for the woman, a lady who brought us here, the process of birthing, a birth process herb in the sense of midwifery, aiding assisting the mother in the birth process and later expelling after birth and lochia. Then an herb useful for feminine times and places, the hormonal shifts with becoming a wise woman elder, the movement from girl to woman, passing on the truth of us as a people, all of it. Wort refers to the old english wyrt and proto germanic, wurtiz used in Anglo Saxon, Danish, meaning herb or root. In general the term wort or wert, refers tp some kind of useful plant either medicinal or for eating, fibre, or all. Like St John’s wort, or collard greens old english cole-wort, and so motherwort, or mother’s plant, mom’s herb. Mom being Mary of Neandertal bogs stream glade and wood, green mother Mary mother of the deepist, most profound and important being of all, the us, the we, for we are a people and our well being is non-negotiable, our father-mother land, blood and soil inviolate.
Motherwort, or Leonurus cardiaca, is a perennial plant native to the cradle of civilization which is Europe. It contains flavonoids and phenolic acids and has been widely used traditionally for its beneficial properties central to biospirit therefor wellbeing.
These virtues inherent to the plant like the inherent irreducible qualities of us, as a we, led to the spread of la agripalma throughout Europe, the cradle of human civilization, as a medicinal plant. It is currently present throughout the euro continent and usually grows in lowland areas or at the foot of hills in rural areas, much like it does here in nuevo España, New new mexico. In España, specifically, it has been found growing wild in the northern part of the Iberian Peninsula. Frequently in España, it grows wild near monasteries, both inhabited and ruined, because the catholic monasteries had medicinal herb gardens where it wondered from cultivation and persevered through its agripalma biospirit to grow wild just as we do.
Motherwort (Leonurus cardiaca)
Description
This plant can grow between one foot to 30 inches tall. It is in the mint family and has a square stem with deep grooving. The leaves are distinctly opposite. Towards the base they are deeply palmate in 5-9 lobes then higher they are playmate in thee lobes, superficiouly resembling a wormwood, artemisia. It has a green scent with no pronounced minty scent. If you grab the stem you will notice a pricklyness, not as much as a thistle but more prickle than usual mint family plant. The multilobed leaves are long-petiolated, hairy that are dark green on the upper surface and more grey green whitish underside. The flowers occur in axillary clusters, stacked one upon the other. The flowering, appears after equinox, towards the feast of San Juan Baptista about the time the yellow flowers of San Juan arrive. The flowers are hairy, pinkish-purple, and arranged in whorls along the entire stem like another mint marrubia which frequently is nearby.
There is a strong tendency in understanding medicinal herbal plants like agripalma and processes in the organs of biospirit and so on, to compare them to the familiar. So some one may say the body is like the ubiquitous american suv automobile, and the body’s fuel is fossil fuel, petrol, or a gasolina compared to glucose. Or in higher status persons within the dominant culture narrative the fuel of a prius being electric rechargeable variety. Or the brain is a computer, things familiar. So herbs become pills, pharmaceutical medicines. Hierba de San Juan, St John’s wort is prozac and so on. There is a tendency to operate a universalist checklist of problems or diagnosis and then apply the plant medicine substitute for an allopathic drug. The problem with this approach is that people are not replaceable parts in a machine and living plants are not pharmaceutical drugs. Plants are plants. People are people. Drugs manufactured in a laboratory are exactly that.
We can compare this to Sir Charles Spencer Chaplain’s 1936 Modern Times, caught in the giant spinning wheels of the samsara factory turning consciousness deeper into itself as delusional solipsism. Where the medium not only as McLuhan said, is the message, the medium becomes the experience. Of course this film created during a brief lull in the 30 years war 1914-1945 of european erasure made it funny humorous to look at everything and everyone, occurring as a humorous bash of sarcastic narcolepsy. Seeing the world through the lens of AI factory narrative story written by the global kabal that demands their war, and protection racket is the only game in town. Thankfully we as herbalists don’t do kabal hollywood programmed scripted entertainment anymore. We don’t do kabal entertainment story because it denies us as a people and diverts our duty to wellbeing energy to the global violence industry centered in the NGO’s corporate office headquarters in the middle east, with franchised offices in all the western nations. Play or pay, or play and pay which is their fiction. Or if you watch their Seinfeld-esque story, their snarky sarcastic story becomes your script, to wave the second feminist pad and tampon stars and stripe mantra, continuous war. We are peace pilgrims doing peace. We are a people and our wellbeing is nonnegotiable, wellness is the priority. Our uniform is our skin. We no longer live in that dominant culture villain narrative. It’s unfun, boring and unworkable to do paint by number, diagnosis problem solution herbalism. Herbs like agripalma work best for specific biospirit types. So for instance women that are on the thin side who tend to be stressed out and pushed around, to use a horse analogy, rode hard and put up wet.
I can imagine a prototypical second wave neurotic feminist like Simone de Beauvoir hating an herb called Motherwort. Simone de Beauvoir in “The Second Sex” writes an entire chapter of 50 plus pages deconstructing motherhood, “women feel their femininity as an absolute curse: they wish for or accept a daughter with the bitter pleasure of finding another victim; and at the same time they feel guilt at having brought her into the world; their remorse and the pity they feel for themselves through their daughter are manifested in endless anxieties; they will never take a step away from the child; they will sleep in the same bed for fifteen or twenty years; the little girl will be destroyed by the fire of this disquieting passion.” -Simone de Beauvoir The Second Sex 1949. The truth is most men love being fathers and most women love being mothers. Men love being men and women love being women despite 75 years of non-stop garbage antiwellbeing rhetoric. By the way motherwort or agripalma is guess what? If you guessed motherwort is a woman’s mothering herb, to help you be you as a woman and mother, you are correct.
As far as a constitutional type of woman that motherwort works best? She would be having PMS menstrual tension anxiety, rapid heartbeat due to high estrogen dominance. Usually pelvic tightness, breast nipple tenderness, agripalma would be a remedio to try. Throughout history this time in a woman’s cycle is a rest time, and a time to chill and wait. Not a time to plug in a tampon and go rush around creating chaos, and be all you can be or whatever nightmarish slogan is being pushed on women today. It’s a rest time. It is ok to rest. Wellbeing is a long term gradual goal that takes the whole lifetime, you need to master you as an us because we are a people.
Properties
One of its main virtues is that it is a biospirit herb, held close to the heart, hierba de corazon, an herb of the heart. It helps nourish and soothe the heart, helping to lower blood pressure. This virtue is precisely what gives it its name, tail of the lion.
It is also considered to have emmenagogue properties due to some of its alkaloid constituents, yet again perhaps not, leunucardin. Though has traditionally been recommended in cases of what might be called, pms, delayed menstruation. It is also considered a sudorific, or herbal diaphoretic constituent agent that causes sweating. Usually this means also some type of increase in urine output.
ESCOP and the European Medicines Agency (EMA) approve the traditional use of motherwort preparations for the relief of symptoms of nervous tension, including cardiac manifestations such as palpitations, after ruling out any underlying pathology. Furthermore, Commission Europa EMA accepts it for cardiac rhythm disturbances of nervous origin and as an adjuvant in hyperthyroidism.
---Cautions— First, of course with any condition consult a licensed health care provider first, especially more so in relation to post surgical procedure or while taking any prescription medicine. This blog is for educational purposes only and is in no way meant to treat or diagnose. I am purposely not adding the binomial herbal names because this is a folk first oral tradition thing, written to herbalists for herbalists who harvest their own medicinal herbs and have studied face to face in person with a teacher and understand intimately these herbs from personal experience.
—-Preparations Suggestion Dosages—As a fresh green plant extract aerial above ground portion in flower, 1:2 in 60% alcohol, or dried plant extract 1:5 in 40% alcohol ½ to 1 teaspoon tid. As a tea several teaspoons added to a cup 8oz boiling water, let steep to warm, add honey and drink.
Formulas: 1)As noted as a heart circulatory tonic with cardio insufficiency and venous pooling of fluid beginning to happen in lower extremities and hands, a traditional remedio formula would combine extracts or dried powdered herbs in 00 capsules, or a cardio tonic tea, of agripalma, con los del espino blanco y el meliloto. So a combination of motherwort, hawthorne and dried sweet clover. It using extracts it would be best to extract each herb separately then add extracts to water or some kind of neutral supportive tea as cleavers or red root.
2)For a relaxation response in terms of falling asleep and staying asleep. A useful formula would combine agripalma, hierba de San Juan, Valeriana if a paradoxical response is ruled out by prior usage of client, or substute flor de cervesa flor de lupolo, y o melisa. So for restful sleep from an agitated restless baseline, combine motherwort. Valeriana (if tolerated), St john’s wort, with hops and or lemon balm. Again, dried for tea or tincture in a tiny amount of water. The problem with herbal tea before bed is if it makes you pee, you will wake up defeating the whole sleep rest thing.
3)If there is some kind of high elevated blood preesure a good formula to try is Agripalma, espino blanco y hojas de olivo, or motherwort, hawthorne and olive leaves.
4) In relation to the heart and provide nourishment at the fundamental energy flow with the capillary beds on the cellular level to increase productive lymph flow combine agripalma, with la vid roja y la melisa. So here motherwort, wild Vitis arizonica leaf ie canyon grape leaves, red root and lemon balm. Due to the astringent nature of the formula you would want to try two weeks on one week off. Otherwise the astringent nature of the formula will encourage constipation and drying of tissue. La vid roja, as wild canyon grape leaves by themselves are a potent valuable cardio nourishment herb, and an excellent tonic food/slash/medicine combo is the fruit of devil’s claw in a lactose ferment with wild grape leaf at the top of the jar for crispness.
