Sage (Salvia officinalis)

Sage is the herb of wisdom and remembrance.

Traditionally used for:

• Digestive support

• Clearing heaviness

• Supporting clarity of mind

• Ceremonial release

In Tuscany, sage grows along vineyard walls and sun-warmed stone paths. It carries heat, scent, and memory. In this novel, sage becomes a living symbol, steeped in olive oil, folded into pasta, simmered into broth, and woven into the healing of generational silence.
