Rue
Rue
(Ruta graveolens)
Product description
Rue is the potent herb of protection, purification, and banishing magic. Its strong, bitter scent dispels negative energies, severs harmful ties, and fortifies the spirit—scatter crushed leaves around your thresholds to create an energetic barrier, infuse them in a ritual bath to cleanse the aura and release past traumas, or hang sprigs in doorways to ward off ill intent and psychic predation.
Folklore Story
In ancient Rome, rue was called “Herba Iovis” in honor of Jupiter. Roman matrons wore rue garlands to the fields to bless crops and protect against misfortune. One tale tells of a Vestal Virgin whose rue necklace repelled a would-be attacker, its bitter aroma so offensive to darkness that it fled—a testament to rue’s fierce guardianship.
