VIOLET

viola odorata

viola odorata

PART USED
Flowery Tops

ASTROLOGY

POWERS
Love, Luck, Night Magick

Carried, the flowers are to impart luck to the bearer.

Given to newly married couples and babies.

Added to other love herbs for all types of love wishes.

Have a spray of violets on hand when working
night magick and to aid in divination and spirituality.

When flowers are carried they offer protection against
"wykked sperytis" and bring changes in luck and fortune.
Mixed with lavender,
they are a powerful stimulant and arouse lust.
If you gather the first violet in the spring
your dearest wish will be granted.

Ancient Greeks wore violet to calm
tempers and to induce sleep.

Violet fasioned into a chaplet and placed on the head cure
headaches and dizziness, andthe leaves worn in a green
sachet help wounds to heal and prevent evil spirits
from making the wounds worse.
