10 Important Motherwort Magical Properties [DIY]

Motherwort may taste bitter, but it’s still one of the most widely used herbs among witches. Let’s learn more about motherwort’s magical properties!

What is Motherwort?

Motherwort originates from Asia and is well known for its therapeutic properties.

The plant grows in the plains, hills, and mountain areas up to an altitude of 4500 ft. (1400 m). This herb can be grown easily with seeds in pots and directly in the ground. It can be sown in late summer or early spring.

Flowering occurs in the middle of summer.

It doesn’t have a pleasant smell, and its taste is very bitter.

To take advantage of its therapeutic properties, it can be used as a tincture.

In the kitchen, both fresh and dried flowers are used to flavor legume soups, especially lentils.

The flowers are also used in some regions to prepare beer and tea.

A Love Bond Ritual with Motherwort

Mixing motherwort with certain alcohols will create a specific perfume that attracts men through their sense of smell.

This ritual is called a love bond.

The plant should be mixed (about 20-25 g, 0.7 – 0.9 oz) with rose petals.

Put them in the alcoholic liquor (doesn’t have to be too strong) during a full moon night, which will guarantee that you will have the man of your dreams at your feet.

The following should be said to make the mooring more effective:

“Miraculous motherwort, blessed and powerful, that by the cry of Mary Magdalene you spilled in my name, help me change my luck in love, transform the thought of (the name of my beloved) so that it remains with me for eternity, and stop suffering the fear of your heartbreak.

Offer me luck in love, give me the man (or woman) I need, for the blood of our lord spilled without remedy on Calvary, that my beloved will focus attention to me, forever.

Take away from me the fear of losing him, wrap him in my essence, in my love, my happiness, which he wishes only to be his body and soul, without fear or envy.

Tie it up next to me, let’s enjoy a full life together, and have no eyes for anyone but me, without ever leaving my side.

So be it.”
