Magickal Uses;
Lavender has long been used in love spells and sachets,
Clothing nabbed with the fragrant flowers (or lavender placed in drawers with clothes) attracts love.
A piece of paper on which you've rubbed lavender is excellent for writing love notes.
The scent of lavender particularly attracts men, and lavender water or essential oil was worn by prostitutes several centuries ago to both advertise their profession as well as to attract (through magick) customers.
Lavender also protects against cruel treatment at the hands of a spouse if worn.
These flowers are also burned or smoldered to induce sleep and rest, and are scattered about the home to maintain its peacefulness.
The plant is so powerful that, if, when depressed, one gazes upon the plant, all sorrow will depart and a joyous feeling will settle upon the observer.
