Osha Root (Ligusticum porteri)
Osha root (Ligusticum porteri) is the mountain medicine of the lungs—a fiery, aromatic root revered for its ability to protect and fortify. With a bold bitter and pungent taste, osha powerfully supports the respiratory, immune, and circulatory systems, making it a trusted ally when you're fighting off seasonal threats or need to open the breath and clear congestion. Ruled by Fire and guided by Mercury, the planet of communication and movement, osha gets things flowing—moving stuck mucus, stimulating blood flow, and activating the body’s natural defenses. Traditionally used by Indigenous healers of the Southwest, osha carries a deep respect as a protector herb, often burned or carried as well as taken internally. It's warming, drying, and invigorating—perfect for cold, damp conditions or for anyone needing a breath of clarity and strength when things feel heavy or congested.
