Plantain
Plantain
(Plantago major)
Product description
Plantain is the humble yet powerful herb of protection, healing, and grounding. Its broad, ribbed leaves draw out negativity and soothe energetic wounds—scatter dried leaves around your altar to form a protective barrier, steep them in a nurturing ritual bath to calm the spirit and mend the aura, or carry fresh leaves in a charm sachet to keep your energy shielded throughout the day.
Folklore Story
In medieval Europe, children pricked by nettles were told to apply a poultice of plantain leaves, earning it the name “Soldier’s Herb” after battlefield medics used it to staunch wounds. One legend tells of a wandering knight whose grievous cut was healed overnight when plantain grew through the stone where his blood fell—sealing its reputation as a steadfast healer and protector.
