With Marien celebration the herb consecration is closely connected. In August the ethereal oils in herbs and welfare plants achieve their highest concentration and concomitantly their highest therapeutic use. The herb bundles arbitrarily one does not tie together, separate its composition effected according to certain rules.
Like that the number of different plants is different depending upon region, but the seven main herbs

(Minze, Chamomile, Johanneskraut, Salbei, Wermut, Spitzwegerich and Arnika) should not be missing. Center of the bundle forms a Kings candle, also the nut/mother God candle or weather candle is called. Flowering garden flowers belong to as decorating accessories likewise. The consecrated herb bundles at home one dries and one keeps. With threatening tempests one burns a part of the dried herbs and ill cattle for recovery a prize of ground herbs under the fodder is mixed.
