Dill Seed Oil

Common dill seed is one of the oldest aphrodisiacs in the book and quite readily available to the student of aphrodisia. The herb’s seed has references in the Bible, and its use predates written record. Dill pickles may be something more than something to get on the side of a corned beef sandwich.The word dill is said to come from the Norse word Dilla, meaning dull. Chewing the plant can dull sensation of the tongue, and that’s about all it dulls.

Gerard had a few words to say on dill, “The decoction of the tops of fried dill, and likewise of the seed, being drunk, ingendreth milke in the breasts of nurses, allayeth gripings and windinesse, provoketh urine, increaseth seed, stayrth the yeox, hiceket or hicquet, Discorides teacheth.” He goes on to say, “the common oyle, in which dill is bouled or pummeled, as we do oyle of roses doth digest, mitigate paine, procureth sleepe, bringeth raw and undigested humors to perfect digestion, and provoketh bodily lust.”
Gerard along with many other herbalists of ancient days saw dill as a great way to stirre up the bodily lust, with the only side effect as being increased fertility, which could be a problem.

The traditional way to use this herb is to grind the fresh seed, mix with honey, oil your hands and roll up little pills, several taken a few hours before the deed is to be done. This one is good for girls and boys alike. Some recommend the seed ground fresh and added to a glass of wine to get the love skud fired up.
