Cleavers

Cleavers (Galium aparine) – The Weaver of Bonds

Tenacious, sticky, and resilient, Cleavers is a botanical of attachment and unification. Ruled by the planet Venus and the element of Water, its magickal signature is defined by its ability to "cling." It is a master herb for any ritual involving the joining of two forces, whether that be a partnership, a legal contract, or a commitment to a personal goal.

In folk tradition, Cleavers is used to "stick" a wandering mind to a task or to ensure that a positive influence stays firmly in one's life. It is also a subtle protective herb, acting as a "spiritual filter" that catches and entangles negative vibrations before they can reach their target.

Ritual Suggestions:

• Filtering Wards: Hang a small bunch of dried Cleavers near a window or air vent to act as a "spiritual web," symbolically catching and holding onto stray negative energy so it doesn't circulate through the room.
