Hermes was also a healer. He gave knowledge of medicine to Aesclypius. Hermes' staff is the symbol of healing, for petesake.

RushMama2112, Interestingly, Hermes is not a god associated with medicine and the caduceus is not actually a medical symbol. The use of the caduceus to denote medical organizations is the result of a long-standing historical confusion between the caduceus and another ancient Greek symbol: the rod of Asclepius.I always associated Hermes/Mercury as the messenger of the gods and not as a healer.

Mythologies/ faiths/ religions/ cults/ beliefs,/ etc. (pick a term you prefer, they are all interchangeable). It is Fantastically Groovy to learn the different lores of old & new. To each their own.
