WORMWOOD Compositae
Artemisia absinthium
WORMWOOD carried at the waist is protective; hung in a
muslin bag on a car's rear view mirror, it prevents
accidents. Burn it on charcoal to call up helpful spirits.
Botanical notes: As one of the Artemisias, WORMWOOD is
related to Mugwort and Southernwood, and it is used in
similar ways. Mugwort can be substituted for WORMWOOD in spells.
Further botanical notes at: Mugwort, Sage, Southernwood
