🖨️ Heather Spiritual Properties

Transcription of the video

Its scientific name comes from the Greek word meaning “to sweep”. Heather is found growing in fields, ditches and waste areas in cooler areas around Europe and the British Isles.

Heather is an evergreen shrub with grayish-green leaves and tiny bell-shaped flowers that bloom in late summer and early autumn. Heather is the national flower of Scotland because the farmers blessed their fields by carrying bundles of burning heather to ensure fertility in their crops and cattle.

Deer and other grazing animals love to feed on heather as it is an important food source for them. If you plan on planting heather in your garden, be aware that it releases a chemical that prevents other plants from growing near it.

Magickal Uses of Heather

New Beginnings

Use heather in spells relating to new beginnings. It aids in self-discovery and is often used at initiation rituals for new practitioners.

Summoning Spirits

A sprig of heather kept around the house will attract friendly spirits. These spirits help to bring peace and good luck to everyone in the household. In order to conjure a peaceful spirit you have known, place heather in a place where you often meditate. Gather a sprig of white heather at midnight and place it in a glass of river water. Then put the water and heather in the darkest corner of your home and meditate on the spirit you want to see. Travelers often keep a bit of heather with them for protection against any physical attacks. And, best of all, heather can help summon and attract faeries to your garden!

Good luck

Not only does heather bring about positive entities, but it ensures good luck as well. It is believed that heather was stained with the blood of war in Scotland, so using white heather is the best choice for use in magic. Always add heather to a bridal bouquet or the decorations to ensure good luck to the couple.
