"Moxa" is a word in ENGLISH
A soft woolly mass prepared from the young leaves of
Artemisia Chinensis, and used as a cautery by burning it on the skin;
hence, any substance used in a like manner, as cotton impregnated with
niter, amadou.
A plant from which this substance is obtained, esp. Artemisia
Chinensis, and A. moxa.
It’s not enough to wish, dream, hope. Even children know this. We must set sail into the sea of uncertainty. We must meet fear face-to-face. We must take our dreams as maps for a greater journey. Dreams, to come true, need a good story. So go live one.
