I am so grateful for the herbal wisdom and care that Violet offers as it has helped me to (re)dis-cover medicine that supports healing as a whole self rather than in separate, problematized parts. When a dear friend told me about their wonderful experience with Violet I immediately scheduled a first meeting. In my intake, I felt safe and supported to talk through physical, emotional, and spiritual areas that I felt could use herbal care, and found that through just this conversation alone that I better understood my own experience and how these layers were connected. At that time I was approaching major life changes and was in a blocked state where I was having trouble processing/metabolizing both emotionally and physically, and Violet mixed a blend of plant medicines that could help me with increasing and regulating energetic/metabolic flow, while staying balanced. Violet brings so much heart and empathy into her work, and the medicine they custom-make for clients is indicative of how they truly listen and meet you where you are. I am grateful for how Violet generously shares knowledge of different herbal relatives and how they can bring extra energy and love into areas of our bodies and lives. She is also incredibly selfless when it comes to making sure that her apothecary is accessible to all people. The good intentions Violet puts into the medicine is without a doubt a necessary ingredient for the healing it brings.
“Violet Moon is one of the most generous herbalists I know. The care, time and attention that she devotes to both her clients and her plants is astounding. I have had the great honor to witness Violet’s growth as an herbalist over the years and think of her work with great respect and admiration. Her quick wit, sense of humor, attention to detail, and deep spiritual practice is a powerful combination. I have always appreciated the love and care she provides to the queer and trans community, as well as her commitment to anti-racism work in her city (Oakland). Violet is also a pleasure to garden with. Her squeals of delight when Greeting a plant bring great joy to my heart. Plants blossom under Violet’s loving care, and it’s evident that she has a special connection with them. I highly recommend working with Violet to anyone who is considering delving deeper into their healing work through plants. Her beautiful medicine pours out not only through her tinctures but also her brave and strong heart.”
“Violet is a talented and skilled healer. With her thoughtful and thorough consultation, she considered my physical and mental health concerns and goals in a truly holistic way. The medicines she provides are of incredible quality. I feel very lucky to have the the opportunity to work with her!”
“I have been seeing Violet as my herbalist for over a year and it has made such a huge difference in my life! She gave me herbs to help increase my gender euphoria as I am transitioning, herbs to help my lungs when the fire smoke is bad, and herbs to help my anxiety.
I really appreciate the care she takes to make me different blends that are right for my body and can help me navigate my anxiety in different circumstances. Having herbs I can take when having a panic attack has helped me so much.
She also gave me herbs to help my nausea. I used to feel sick every morning and the herbs that Violet gave me to help have been nothing short of miraculous. I cannot recommend her enough!”
