“Aphrodisiac” is a highly problematic term,
predominantly because of the popular but mistaken
belief that they create "automatic interest" in
anyone/everyone who uses them... products advertised
with guarantees for amazing results often fail to
deliver, or (not infrequently) are found to be
adulterated with drugs.
Looking at lists of plants
deemed “aphrodisiacs”, we see everything from
strong, druglike herbs (yohimbe) to culinary spices
(ginger) to adaptogens (ashwangandha) and
antispasmodics (kava). What gives? Well, just like
all other aspects of herbcraft, one person’s turn on
can put another person out… in other words,
energetics apply here as well.
We'll discuss important lifestyle factors like diet
and exercise, consider things that inhibiting
libido, such as pharmaceuticals, trauma and natural
relationship dynamics, and look deeply at what
indications make certain herbs appropriate to
certain people to give you some ideas to ponder with
your partner(s).
