Tinctures are more effective than the dried herbs that are used for treatment. If you make tincture at home you can even make a quart at the price of an ounce that you buy in the stores. Moreover you can make your own formulas for the tincture that can be more effective. The ingredients needed to make your own tincture are fresh herbs or dried herbs, Vodka or Rum (80-100 proof), glass jars and cheesecloth that are unbleached. Cut the herbs finely or powder them if they are dried. Put them in the glass jar and pour alcohol over it until they are submerged. Now seal the jar tightly and place the jar in a dark room. Make sure that you shake the jar daily. When you are ready to bottle it, filter it using the cheesecloth and pour it into a dark colored jar. Squeeze the herbs to extract the tincture. Label the glass and use it.

Lightning occurs within the clouds, between clouds, or between the cloud and the ground. The discharge of electricity built up when the positive and the negative charges collide, causes lightning. The distribution of electric charge in the cloud also depends on the distribution of water and the particles of ice in the cloud. To understand the strength of a lightning, we can say that an average lightning could be used for 3 months to light up a 100 watts bulb.
The air that ascends and descends in the atmosphere plays a role in the separation of the electric charges as positive and negative. Chance so getting hit by lightning is 1 in 600 thousand. This chance is further reduced if you follow the safety rules. It is only during the summer that most of the lightning hits take place because it is in this period the rapid heating and cooling of air takes place. It is estimated that around 100 thousand thunderstorms occur every year in USA.
