- protection — amplified by The World's energy of Integration
- strength — amplified by The World's energy of Achievement
- willpower — amplified by The World's energy of Wholeness
Ritual Guide
Create a small herb bundle and place it on the card atop a patch of soil or salt. Ground yourself barefoot if possible, breathing the herb's aroma for 15 minutes.
⚠️ Safety: One of the safest plants available. Avoid if allergic to psyllium (a relative). Ensure harvesting from unsprayed areas.
