The state tree of both Maine and Michigan as well as the Provincial Tree of Ontario, the White pine is the tallest evergreen tree native to Eastern North America. Treasured for its beauty and the hint of green it offers when everything else is draped in white in the winter, its bark has also been explored by Native people medicinally for hundreds of years. Interestingly, similar uses of the bark of other species have also been used within Traditional Chinese Medicine as well. Herbalists have traditionally used White Pine Bark to treat colds and coughs for ages. As an expectorant it can be used as a component in a variety of treatments that helps to loosen and expel phlegm and mucous. Some have also used it to increase circulation, and studies have shown it to be nature`s second largest source of the potent antioxidants called proanthocyanidins. In ritual spells and magic, Pine is associated with many deities including Cybele, Pan, Venus, Attis, Dionysus, Astarte and Sylvanus. It is ruled by Mars and the element of Air, and can be used in magick to improve fertility - especially when used during Beltane celebrations. It can also be used during the winter months to purify the home and make it ready for the next season. It has also been extensively used in protection magic - even christian faiths use crosses made of pine to protect them from evil spirits. Keywords: Healing, Protection, Fertility, Exorcism, Money
