About
Vervain has been used for its magical properties for centuries. A versatile herb that can be used for many workings including Protection, purification, peace promotion, as a catalyst in energy and a mediator in disagreements. To discover Vervain's true talents, you need to explore the physical benefits it can offer. Vervain has been and still is used for the treatment of kidney stones - a build-up of calcium in the kidneys, which causes a blockage. It treats this by breaking down blockages so the kidneys can get back to doing their job. In magical terms this translates to clearing stagnant energy and supporting a better flow. When we apply these abilities to magical workings we can enhance spells by improving the focus and removing blockages for a clearer casting. Vervain will help pull through your intention when doing spell work. This is useful if you are struggling to articulate your desire, as Vervain will support you in making your inner intentions known. Vervain can assist in clearing stagnant energy. Vervain is under the Element Water and as such lends itself to helping with issues that create emotional blockages, such as arguments, inner doubt and fear. It can also bring balance to dominant energies, making way for opposing views to be considered and provide basic protection against manipulation. This makes it a go to herb for conflict resolution. Spiritually Vervain allows you to lower your guard, removing any emotional obstacles that may be preventing you from working with a higher energy. It is often ourselves that are the biggest obstacle in spiritual development. Vervain will give you a clear path to work on by opening your mind to other realms. Vervain can also support the processing of painful memories and thoughts. Due to this it can lend its abilities to shadow work, specifically when you need to process what you have discovered within. Coming to terms with our shadow side can sometimes be the barrier to future happiness. Vervain will help you process, banish and move on, welcoming in a cleansed state of mind.
Top Tip: Consecrate Divination tools with a Vervain infused oil for clarity, if you are struggling to interpret readings.
