Herbs to sweeten?

[flickerandflight]

Not herbs for a honey jar but to sweeten a person towards you. I’ve seen some conflicting answers: lavender, rose petals etc but in my opinion those lean more toward romantic intentions.

Some others have said sugar, but if you’re playing the long game and want something you can grow yourself, I’d say stevia!

I always use sugar regardless but a witch I worked with once gave me some advice that might be helpful here- she said to pair sugar with coffee beans or ground coffee to make it work faster. I’ve used it a lot of times since with pretty good results: once in a romantic sense and several times to smooth over disagreements with friends and to take the edge off shitty bosses.

Herbs are not my forte, but I think my approach is a unique consideration;

Your desired effect is for them to be sweet on you, but using herbs and their essences are about dissoluting the resistances to them being like that towards you.

Add herbs which delay with release of fears, positivity, bounty and opportunity.

To clarify; the point of the practice is not to *make* the recipient sweet; the service is to remove their blocks from *choosing* to be so.
Much longer path to your desired outcome, but much more authentic/ethical.

Stevia.

Cinnamon, nutmeg, clove

The list for this could be a mile long, here are a few that I don’t find to be too strongly romantic; Oregano, Catnip, and my personal favorite because of its versatility-Rosemary.
Also, listen to your intuition, what herbs say gentle and sweet to you?

Sugar and the green part of a strawberry top. also if they have a certain fav sweet treat like candy or coffee syrup flavor maybe incorporate that!!

Sugar!

Calendula is a good one- I also like chamomile. I think prosperity herbs would be good too- peppermint, Marjoram, bay leaves.

[Seabastial]

Catnip, lavender, pink tulips, peppermint.

Lemon Balm

[NoRecommendation634]

Licorice root, elderflower, honeysuckle, jasmine, sweet pea or pea flowers all of them are slightly binding/dominating though.

[Plant_Goddess2022]

Vanilla is great for that
