"Pinus," referring to the vast family of pines, isn't technically an herb – it's a group of evergreen conifers. However, their various parts – needles, bark, nuts, and sap – have held significance throughout history. Ancient Egyptians used pine for embalming, valuing its antimicrobial properties. Greeks and Romans incorporated pine into religious ceremonies, associating it with purification and strength due to its evergreen nature. In North America, indigenous tribes utilized pine needles for teas to treat coughs and colds, and pine nuts as a nutritious food source.

Medicinally, pine offers a range of potential benefits. Pine needle tea is a traditional remedy for respiratory problems, with its expectorant properties helping to clear congestion. Pine bark extract boasts antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, and may be useful for cardiovascular health.

For those interested in herbal magic, pine holds symbolic power. Associated with longevity, vitality, and purification, pine needles can be incorporated into cleansing rituals or sachets meant to promote good health. Pinecones, representing fertility and abundance, can be used in spells for prosperity or attracting positive energy.
