Did you hear of the Flower of Maryam?🌸
Scientifically known as ‘Anastatica hierochuntica’, also known as the ‘Jericho rose’, it is a small shrub collected across North Africa, Saudi Arabia, Iran, and Pakistan, and is commonly and traditionally used to aid in the treatment of colds, infections, body pains, and other ailments.
The Flower contains significant amounts of calcium, magnesium, potassium, zinc, and iron; in particular, calcium and magnesium, which is why many traditional (and some modern!) midwives, suggest taking sips of it to aid with pain relief, coordinate and regulate smooth muscle contractions, and encourage dilation during a woman’s labor.
Other uses in labor can include burning the flower as essence, and it being a powerful visualization tool, as it is said that the flower opens when soaked in a bowl of water, and continues to open and blossom as a laboring women dilates.
There is some belief that suggests that when the flower reaches it’s full bloom, the laboring woman is close to, or ready to, birth her baby! 👶🏼
NOTE that I am writing about this just out of curiosity and NOT for medical purposes, and is only being used as a beautiful visual for mom, and NOT for the purpose of drinking or burning.
Summary: you can drink rose of Jericho water without any untoward effect.
