- protection — amplified by The Emperor's energy of Authority
- exorcism — amplified by The Emperor's energy of Structure
- hex breaking — amplified by The Emperor's energy of Stability
- anti-evil eye — amplified by The Emperor's energy of Leadership
Ritual Guide
Burn the herb as incense while placing the tarot card on your altar. Visualize flames of transformation for 10 minutes, channeling the herb's smoke to carry your intention upward.
⚠️ Safety: Phototoxic — fresh plant juice on skin + sunlight can cause severe burns. Avoid during pregnancy — strong abortifacient. Do not handle large amounts without gloves. Not for internal use in large doses.
