In Brazil, it is customary to worship seven plants to put luck or luck in their favor. They change the altar. As among vegetarians, there is also everything in these altars: poisons, with a good smell... Here's the gang.

A genus of Dieffenbachia that, if given by mouth, can leave you without a voice. And if he drops his throat, he suffocates. We have to worship her!

The other, Graveolens route. A plant that, as in the kitchen, is dangerous for its sanitary use. Its strong alkaloids and essences can produce blisters and severe wounds by binding with ultraviolet rays on the skin. Fear separates insects from them; the lice, for example, like plants, from hens.

Pepper, Capsicum annuum. Do the grains put a bell pepper plant that gives heat and pain? Plant of luck that warms or hurts. If it's just a little sweet when it comes to eating, good luck!

Also the Sansevieria trifasciata. The one that is called by its severe appearance is the tongue of her mother-in-law. Most plants are able to live in conditions of death. To say that the road to the Zorote is going to complicate us? Do you have the language of your mother-in-law? They say it cleans the air and oxygenates. For the English it is the snake's plant. In Brazil itself it is called the sword of St. George and, according to the custom brought from Africa, it is used to heal the eyes.

In kitchens, the Ocimum basilicum, one of the most venerated, the basil, eat so as not to harm the arrival of the terraplenes. English astrologer and botanist Nicholas Culpeper (1616-1654) said in France: if the basil was too smelled, lupus was created in the brain.

Rosemary, called Rosmarinus officinalis, is able to live without more water than the sea dew. Well-known collaborator to improve memory and find the concubine. A small bouquet of romers in the head rubs away the nightmares and witches are placed on the outside of the house. In the houses run by women there are many pilgrims, says the saying. His oil forms rheumatism and lumbago. In Brazil, the roast that has to burn the meat evaporates with its leaves. It helps to overcome typhoid fever. It is no wonder that in the Afro religions it is used as a bathroom and incense.

What they call Tipi, Petiveria alliacea, seventh. It flushes insects with garlic odor. It's a miscarriage, and if you take it ceaselessly, it can lead to fainting. Brazil!
