Wild Cherry Bark
(Prunus serotina)

Product description
Wild Cherry Bark is a gentle yet potent guardian of healing, protection, and dreamwork magic. Its warm, subtly astringent energy soothes emotional turbulence and wards off nightmares—scatter a few shards across your altar to cleanse stagnant vibes, steep them in a moonlit ritual bath for restful sleep, or layer beneath candles to fortify protective wards.

Folklore Story
In early Appalachian lore, a mother troubled by her child’s night terrors brewed a tea of Wild Cherry Bark and steamed the bedroom door with its vapor. By dawn, the child slept peacefully, and families began hanging strips of bark above cradles to safeguard little ones from bad dreams. The herb earned the name “Dream Shield” for its reputation as a gentle protector of sleep.
