Herbs for Protection & how to actually use them 🌿

Protection magic doesn’t always mean casting spells…sometimes it’s as simple as the herbs on your counter.

🕯️ Rosemary → Burn a few dried sprigs or add to bath water to cleanse energy after being around heavy people or spaces.

🍃 Basil → Keep a pot near your front door or window to invite harmony and repel negativity.

🌸 Lavender → Add to sleep sachets, simmer in water for calm, or use in floor washes for gentle protection.

🌬️ Sage → Use for smoke cleansing or mix with salt and rosemary in a bowl for energetic shielding.

🔥 Bay Leaf → Powerful for manifesting. Write your intention or worry on it, then safely burn it to release the energy.

What herbs do you keep handy?
