Ancient Forces

In ancient Kemet, the divine NeTeRu are the transformative energies of Nature—the perpetual dance of life, death, and rebirth. This energy, forever conserved and ever-changing, serves as the cornerstone of our work. At Ministry of Neteru, we maintain a profound harmony with nature spirits to share their wisdom and medicine with the world.

Powerful Healing

Here we harness the wisdom of nature spirits and the healing power of herbs to reawaken each of our inner strength. Our goal is to build a vibrant community while imparting the mystical properties of plants and the significance of living in harmony with our Mother Earth. We aim to reawaken your childlike wonder, creativity, and your sense of personal power. Through intentionally cultivated or wildcrafted herbs, small-batch energetic medicines, and educational resources, we reconnect you with the Earth's wisdom and your innate healing abilities.

Ministry of Neteru Apothecary is your gateway to the wisdom of the Earth and the transformational magic of herbs and the nature spirits.

Our Dried Herbs

All of our herbs are organic, mindfully and respectfully wildcrafted or from small-scale growers, who work in right relationship with the land and grow and harvest with mindful intention and permission from the plants--happy plants make more powerful/stronger medicine.

Our herb supply depends on the season, given that we work with the flow and seasonality of the land and are not mass-producers. We partner with aligned businesses and individuals and have special bulk herb pricing. Please reach out for our full list of our available herbs and to reserve or request herbs to be grown in the next season.

LOVINGLY LOCALLY HARVESTED HERBS

We work in partnership with the nature spirits and all plants are grown or wildcrafted locally in deep respect of the land and all of her creatures. We harvest only the happiest plants with permission. Happy and well cared for plants make the most powerful medicines.

SMALL
BATCH

All medicines are small-batch or made to order so that we can work with the energetics of each plant ally, at their pace, and devote ourselves fully to them with loving intention.

POWERFUL ENERGETIC MEDICINE

As an energy worker and communer with these spirits, Empress Zella Taj works to infuse each medicine with loving energy and imprints specific intentions. Where, when, and how these medicines are made is always dictated by the plants.
