🌿 Historical & Ceremonial Significance

Skullcap has a rich legacy across North American, European, and Chinese herbal traditions. Native American tribes used it ceremonially to promote spiritual clarity, ease emotional distress, and support women’s reproductive health. In 18th-century Western herbalism, it was known as “mad dog weed” for its use in calming convulsions and hysteria.

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, a related species (Scutellaria baicalensis) was used to clear heat, reduce inflammation, and support liver function. Across cultures, skullcap has been valued as a nervine, antispasmodic, and mild sedative, often included in blends for anxiety, insomnia, and tension.
