Yarrow is a beautiful plant to stare at for its tiny flowers and its classy look. But what about its Magickal uses? Let’s learn more about Yarrow Magical Properties!
What is Yarrow?
Yarrow is a native plant of the Mediterranean.
The Latin name “achillea” was invented by the botanist Carl Linnaeus, for the fascinating history that surrounded the legendary Achilles and the yarrow plant that allowed to heal Télefo’s wounds during the siege of Troy.
Other sources, on the other hand, stated that when Achilles was critically hit in battle by Paris, the goddess Aphrodite treated his wounds with the yarrow.
The plant is composed of small white or pink flowers, with a delicate fragrance that is present from the spring to the summer.
The Celts used it for their spiritual rituals because they considered its powers magical.
The Indians of America used it mainly as an infusion to overcome the almost polar cold of the long winters.
In the seventeenth century, medicine recommended its use in the culinary field. The softer leaves are excellent for flavoring fresh cheeses and salads.
Yarrow Magical Uses and Properties
- It is the plant of the warrior par excellence, as it gives strength and power, but also deep love. Its healing value is equally recognized for both physical and spiritual wounds.
- It directs its action towards the center of the heart, proving to be particularly useful when used together with mint.
- There is no better remedy against spiritual wounds. It serves to heal wounds of the aura and broken hearts, from a loss. My grandmother used it together with mint and chamomile as an infusion or as incense when someone confided to her during the emotional pain or mourning.
Actually, I’m rediscovering this herb recently. My grandmother used it a lot, and if she wasn’t happy when she found out that she burned it all. I immediately learned that I didn’t like its taste, so it was never my favorite herb. However, when I become older, I changed my mind, and today I use it, not too much as an internal remedy, but I often burn it to help restore the electromagnetic field of mine or of the people who need it.
- I add it in a little bag that I keep around my neck, and I must say that it drives away negative people, especially men.
- Traditionally this herb is used magically to drive away the evil eye and diseases and for a special “magnet” that attracts the opposite sex.
- If worn, yarrow protects like a talisman or an amulet, it could be defined as the amulet of Mother Nature.
- When held in hand, it calms the fears and increases courage.
- A bunch of dried yarrow just above the bed, or used fresh for wedding decorations, ensure the duration of love for at least seven years. It was also used in love spells.
- Bringing it with you not only attracts love but also attracts friends and attracts distant people with whom you want to have a relationship. It draws the attention of those you most wish to see.
- Flowers that are placed in boiling water to make an infusion which, when drunk, increases psychic powers.

How it’s done
Position the altar to the west side and cover it with the cloth.

Sprinkle three candles with rose oil, and then light the two pink candles around your altar at the ends.
Light the third dark pink candle and place it in the center of the altar.
In the cauldron, add the rose petals, thyme, and yarrow. Scatter the herbs.
Draw a circle around the altar with your finger. With the athame, carve what you want in the candle.
After that, say these words:
“The candle of energy, the candle of sight
Make my wishes clear to me tonight.
Candle Fire Energy
Deliver the true desire of my heart.”
Then call the water elements, saying:

Turn off the two pink candles around the altar, allow the dark pink candle to burn on its own (have a base metal tableware for the candle).
Once the entire ritual is finished, clean the altar and cover it with a pink cloth or cloth.
