Blue Vervain
Size: 4oz
(Latin Name: Verbena officinalis)(Also known as: Herb of Grace, Enchanter’s Plant, The Sacred Healer)
Brief History & Origin
Vervain is the Herb of Protection, Peace, and Sacred Connection, revered since ancient times as a magical healer and spiritual purifier. In African, European, Caribbean, and Native healing traditions, Vervain has been used to bless altars, cleanse spaces, and call in divine favor.
The Druids called it “Herba Sacra”—the Holy Herb, while in rootwork and hoodoo it is carried for luck, love, and spiritual cleansing. In folk medicine, it has long been used to calm the nerves, clear emotional tension, and soothe the body after spiritual or energetic battles. Vervain teaches us the power of gentle release, sacred rest, and protection through grace rather than force.
