🌾 Bai Mao Gen – Purifier of Fire and Bloodlines
Known as Bai Mao Gen in Chinese Medicine, Cogon Grass Root (Rhizoma Imperatae) is a cooling herb traditionally used to clear heat, calm agitation, and release toxins from the body. Spiritually, it carries the energy of stillness after fire, peace after conflict, and is especially revered in rituals that soothe the blood, cool the mind, or assist with ancestral clearing.
Its gentle nature and affinity for the Blood and Lung channels make it ideal for rites where emotional or generational intensity needs to be softened and transmuted. Think of Bai Mao Gen as the cool rain after the fire — calming, rinsing, and restoring balance to your energetic field.
