Tagetes lucida (Mexican Tarragon / Sweet Marigold)
Native to Mexico and Central America, Tagetes lucida has been used for centuries by Indigenous peoples for ritual, culinary, and medicinal purposes. Its sweet, anise-like aroma made it a valued herb for teas, ceremonies, and dreamwork.

Herbally, Tagetes lucida is a mild nervine, digestive, and tonic, supporting relaxation, easing tension, and promoting clear dreams. Key constituents include essential oils (methyl chavicol, limonene), flavonoids, and coumarins, which contribute to its calming and uplifting effects.

Energetically, Tagetes lucida is warming, uplifting, and clarifying, making it especially useful for mental fatigue, emotional heaviness, or sluggish digestion.

In traditional correspondences, it is linked with the Sun, the element of Fire, and is considered a masculine herb, bringing clarity, vitality, and focus.

Tagetes lucida is a perennial/subtropical herb with slender stems, bright green leaves, and small yellow flowers. The leaves and flowers are best harvested just before flowering, when the aroma and medicinal properties are strongest.
