Characteristics and symbolism of Peppermint
Peppermint (Mentha piperita) is an herb that grows in various climates and regions, thriving in gardens and fields. Its dark green, serrated leaves have a strong menthol aroma. The plant has been valued for thousands of years in both Eastern and Western medicine for its refreshing and cooling properties.
Peppermint is therefore often associated with bringing new energy and symbolizes purity and cleanliness, both physically and spiritually. In ancient Greek and Roman cultures, peppermint was seen as a symbol of hospitality and was often used in rituals and meals.
