Published on March 11, 2019Every spring, we often see our yards suddenly blanketed with dots of bright sunny yellow flowers. Although many suburban homeowners see dandelions as the bane of their existence, and spend significant amounts of money trying to eradicate them from sight, the fact is that dandelions have a long and rich folkloric history, both from a magical and medicinal perspective. Let’s look at some of the ways people have utilized dandelions throughout the ages.
Many dandelion superstitions have evolved into childhood tales – ask any seven year old, and they’ll tell you that if you blow on a dandelion puff, the tiny seeds will carry a wish for you. Also, hold a dandelion bloom under your chin – if your skin appears yellow, you’ll be rich some day. This particular legend dates back to medieval times.
According to Maud Grieve’s A Modern Herbal, the dandelion has a number of medicinal properties. The sap from the stems can be used to cure warts, and the leaves can be dried and made into a tea to aid in digestion. A tincture brewed from the bright yellow flowers is believed to help with complaints related to the liver, and the root can be dried and brewed into a tea as well.
Some people use dandelions to enhance psychic abilities. In his Encyclopedia of Magical Herbs, author Scott Cunningham recommends the use of dandelion roots in a tea to aid in divination and prophetic dreaming.
In some magical belief systems, the dandelion is associated with growth and transformation – after all, a few dandelion flowers soon turn into hundreds of seeds waiting to travel around the neighborhood, repopulating other yards. There’s also a connection to moving on – if you’ve got a bad habit you want to get rid of, associate it with a dandelion puff, and then blow it out away from you.
These hardy yellow flowers will grow just about anywhere, adapting to a variety of soil conditions. Take advantage of their resilience and use dandelions to represent strength and your ability to overcome adversity. In some magical traditions, dandelions are associated with the goddess Aphrodite because of her connection to bees. In others, this plant is connected to the underworld, by way of its association to the goddess Hecate.
If you’ve got dandelions popping up everywhere, sure – you could try to get rid of them. But wouldn’t it be far more useful to embrace them and reap the benefits of the magic they have to offer you?
Whether you are a seasoned witch or a curious beginner, The Dandelion Witchcraft Book offers a wealth of knowledge and inspiration. It encourages readers to embrace their inner magic and forge a deeper connection with the natural world. So grab a copy of this enchanting book and embark on a journey of dandelion witchcraft unlike any other..
Reviews for "Dandelion Spells for Protection and Defense in Witchcraft"
1. Sarah - ★☆☆☆☆
I was really disappointed with the Dandelion Witchcraft Book. I was hoping for a comprehensive guide on dandelion-based spells and rituals, but instead, it was mostly a collection of random folklore and basic gardening tips. The author seems to have a limited understanding of witchcraft and fails to provide any concrete instructions or meaningful insights. I would not recommend this book to anyone serious about witchcraft.
2. Jordan - ★★☆☆☆
As someone who practices witchcraft, I found the Dandelion Witchcraft Book to be quite lacking. While the concept seemed promising, the book lacked depth and practicality. The author spent more time discussing the history and symbolism of dandelions than actually providing useful spells or rituals. Furthermore, the book was poorly organized, making it difficult to navigate and find relevant information. I was hoping for more concrete guidance and specific techniques, but this book fell short.
3. Lisa - ★☆☆☆☆
The Dandelion Witchcraft Book was a complete waste of my time and money. The content was poorly researched, filled with inaccuracies, and lacked any meaningful substance. It felt like a hastily put-together collection of information from various unreliable sources. The author's writing style was also confusing and hard to follow. I would strongly discourage anyone from purchasing this book, as there are far better resources available on the topic of witchcraft.
4. Alex - ★★☆☆☆
I had high hopes for the Dandelion Witchcraft Book, but it ultimately left me feeling underwhelmed. The content was scattered and lacked a clear focus. The suggested spells and rituals were generic and not specifically tailored to the unique properties of dandelions. Additionally, the information provided was fairly basic and could easily be found online for free. While the illustrations were nice, they didn't compensate for the lack of substance in the book. Overall, I was expecting more depth and practicality from this read.
