A word about Common Tansy…this is an essential oil that commands respect.  It is to be used sparingly, with care, and with discretion, due to its high thujone content.  Thujone can be neurotoxic in high amounts. it has a long history of being treated with respect and caution in herbalism.  it has been used traditionally, and is still being used with knowledge and care due to the following benefits: 

Medicinal Benefits: Laboratory studies have found valuable anti-inflammatory and anti-microbial  properties. As in ancient times, today’s research is also evaluating its potential to repel insects, affect certain parasites, and inhibit larval development.  This mirrors its long folk use as a household insect deterrent and the plant was hung in barns and doorways. 

Spiritual/Emotional Benefits:  Tansy is known as a guardian plant, and as an essential oil, it helps one set firm boundaries. It is excellent for those who feel "spread too thin," helping them reclaim their personal space and time.  It is also a symbol of sovereignty. a drop on the sole of each foot can begin to restore and foster your emotional strength and self-love.

Historical Significance: In the Middle Ages, Tansy was a "strewing herb" placed on floors to repel pests.

Common Tansy essential oil is not advised for those pregnant or lactating, or children of all ages.
