Herbs
Herbs provide a connection to Nature through the magickal powers contained within. Using them in spells allows their influences to be incorporated, thus enhancing the desired effects.
All herbs innately provide protection and purification in conjunction with their influences. They are most commonly used in sachets, potions (not ingested), and incenses.
Note: While herbs may be used medicinally, the focus here is on their magickal use. Care should always be taken in the use and storage of herbs, as some may trigger allergies or be poisonous or toxic.
