You will experience years of enjoyment from tending your garden, as Voltaire taught us in his masterpiece, Candide. You can share that pleasure with your friends and those you love by giving gifts from your garden. Your good intentions will be returned many times over. I keep a stock of small muslin drawstring bags for creating amulets. If you are a crafty person, you can make the bags, too, sewing them by hand before stuffing the dried herbs inside.
- For courage and strength of heart: Mullein or borage
- For good cheer: Nettle or yarrow
- For fellow witches: Ivy, broomstraw, and maidenhair fern
- For safe travels: Comfrey
- For fertility: Cyclamen or mistletoe
- For protection from deceit: Snapdragon
- For good health: Rue
- For success: Woodruff
- For strength: Mugwort
- For youthful looks: An acorn
Amulets should be kept on your person at all times, either in a pocket, in your purse or book bag, or on a string around your neck.
