A "hop" is a green cone around the female flower of the hop plant. Inside the hops are golden grains that form a sticky greenish yellow to organ-yellow powder. Hops have been used for centuries to flavor beer, but they have been used even longer to aid sleep and to reduce libido. In fifteenth-century Germany, monks prescribed teas of hops to young males to help them remain chaste. Up to 80% of grains of hops is a bitter resin. There are also tannins, flavonoid antioxidants, lupulone, and humulene.

Hops flowers are best known for their use in flavouring beer. The hops vine is extremely vigorous and grows very tall in the course of a season. Magically speaking, hops have been used by many people for the purpose of bringing Easy Sleep and Pleasant Dreams. According to custom, a sachet filled with hops flowers is kept in the pillow to Prevent Nightmares. Some folks say that if you combine HOPS with Calendula Flowers and place them in the pillow, it will encourage Lucky Number Dreams. Mothers may boil hops flowers in water and add the liquid to floor wash to clean the nursery room and bring Peaceful Sleep to children who often awaken during the night.
