Tumeric

This perennial herb is part of the ginger family. Scientifically known as Curcuma longa, it is native to southern India and Indonesia and was widely used in ancient times as a perfume, spice and dye. Now it is mainland and in the islands of the Indian Ocean.

Turmeric is known for its many health benefits, however, as we are not doctors we do implore you to do your own research that does include consulting a doctor or medical professional for information.

The Metaphysical:

This versatile plant can be used for glamour magic as well as healing, strength and luck spells.

Use it as a magical ink and conduct communication spells, or use in any kind of banishing or abundance magic.

Can be used in protection magic as malevolent spirits, particularly the angry dead, can be sent away with the smell.

As it can be used as a natural dye you can utilize its properties by dying sachets, bags, or poppets, it makes a lovely orange/yellow colour.
