Many practitioners of magic use herbs in their spells or for honoring their deity. Herbs have been used for everything from healing to protection to finding the love that they may be missing in their lives. But what are the basics to herb magic and how can a practitioner use it?
What Kind Of Herbs are There and What are They Used For?
There are hundreds of herbs that a practitioner can use, but they can get away with using a few that are more common. There are herbs that offer protection in magic. Some of the most common of these are Salt, Dragons Blood, Dandelion, and Clover.
There are also herbs that are used for money in magic. Some of the most common of these are Alfalfa, Sassafras, and Cinnamon.
There are also herbs that are for love. These include Roses, Lavender, and Gardenia as well as Lemon Balm.
There are also a few herbs that can play more than one role in magic. Some of these are Rosemary, Dill, Clover and Mint. Most if not all of these can be found in any practitioners herb stash for cooking as well as for magical needs.
Why Add Herbs To Spells?
Adding herbs to a spell is said to strengthen the spell and make it work faster for the practitioner. This is believed to be because the herbs have an energy all their own that is added to the spell that the practitioner is doing. It also helps for practitioners to mix the herbs with their hands as well so that they can add in their own energies and make the spell even stronger.
How Can Herbs Be Added To Spells?
There are many different ways that herbs can be added to the spells that are being done. The first is by mixing the herbs that are being used and visualizing what the spell is being done for. That way the energy of the plants and the practitioner can merge and make the spell work for its purpose.
Another way that herbs can be used is by rolling candles that are going to be used in the spell in the herb. This will empower the candles and the spell at the same time.
There are many ways that herbs can be used to make the spells that a practitioner needs work well and work fast. All anyone needs to know is how they want to do it and the desire to do the work to make it happen.
