Because oregano is so good at helping us to drop our emotional baggage, it can be useful for helping you release the past for a brighter tomorrow.

Oregano can be an especially helpful spiritual aid if you are trying to get over someone you have lost. It could be an ex-lover or friend, or even someone who has passed away.

If there is a place in your home where you have a hard time not dwelling on that person, try setting out some oregano or burning a candle infused with the scent.

Not only can oregano help you to sever emotional ties with your past, but it may also help you build new bonds in the present.

Try inviting a friend, family member, or prospective partner over and cooking them a delicious meal with oregano.

The energy of oregano will help diffuse tensions while opening up hearts to new possibilities.

The aura of happiness at the table will help you create lasting memories. Sometimes one good meal is the start of a new relationship, or the key to rekindling an old one.
