"The plantâs technical title, Artemisia vulgaris, comes from âArtemis,â the name of a Greek moon goddess and considered to be a patron of women. ... Historically, it was used as a herbal inhibitor for womenâs menstrual cycles and helped provide menopause relief.
In some cases, mugwort was successful in a method called moxibustion, which used most notably for reversing the breach position of fetuses before birth and alleviating joint pain. ...plus itâs been used as a natural bug repellant.
The plant contains high levels of antioxidants, which help to alleviate digestive and intestinal issues like ulcers, vomiting, nausea and constipation. Itâs even been known to elicit intense and vivid dreams. Components of mugwort are also being tested and studied as a possible alternative treatment for some cancers."

"According to legend, the mugwort herb was used as a charm to ward off evil spirits. When hung in the home, its claw-shaped leaves forced evil eyes to avert their gaze, kept villainous elves and demons away, and cured disease.
The plantâs versatility doesnât end thereâEnglishmen yearning for handsome looks and virility wore mugwort sprigs in their buttonholes. Some men even bathed in mugwort tea for better-growing beards. Mugwort leaves could also be found in shoes to re-energize weary travelers or in bundles hung over beds to induce vivid dreams.
Mugwort is still considered an important herb in Chinese medicineâit is often used as a nervine and tonic stimulant, and is the herb used in moxibustion to warm acupuncture points and improve blood flow. Just as the chefs did in the Middle Ages, modern herbalists may recommend the mugwort herb to ease a sluggish digestive system. Farm animals also can benefit from mugwortâit can alleviate coughs in cattle and discourage worm infestation in horses and sheep."
