Slavic amulets to protect your home from the evil eye and evil. Village Magic: Wormwood

The Russian Academy, in all these sources, wormwood is mentioned. The miraculous properties of wormwood are most vividly depicted in Taoist Chinese mythology, according to which the island of the immortals, Penlai, is a variant of the Taoist paradise. On this island, those who eat wonderful plants with a wonderful aroma become immortal. Interestingly, Penglai is a real area on the Shandong Peninsula in China, where the Lai people lived, and "pen" means wormwood - artemisia.
Bukovinian herbalists revered her as "grass over grass". Obviously, such a high status is due to the magical properties that the plant was endowed with. Descriptions of the healing properties of wormwood are found in the oldest written monuments. The Russian name "wormwood" comes from the Slavic "fly" - to burn, the reason for this name is the specific smell of the plant, giving off burning and a caustic, bitter taste that causes a real fire in the mouth. There is also a version that wormwood, pelyn, got its name, probably because of the color characteristic of the plant. Consider what kind of magical properties this plant, so plain in appearance, has. Wormwood has been used since ancient times as a talisman against dark forces. Wormwood was added to potions that protected against witchcraft and lightning, used in medicinal potions - from fever, tuberculosis and weakening eyesight.
In Prussia, Bavaria and other German lands, wormwood was used for the same purposes as mountain ash in Scotland - that is, to protect against witches. Prussian farmers used to stack this herb at driveways and around meadows where cows grazed to protect the animals and their milk from witches.
Wormwood can also be used in the ceremony of removing a certain type of damage: when a lining is found (a nail from a coffin lid, grave earth, etc.), carefully fold the find at your door without touching it in a plastic bag, take it to the cemetery and bury it in the center of the cemetery, try not to disturb other people's graves. . At the same time, read the plot three times: "These things have a place here! The owner of the cemetery, I respectfully ask you to take this lining from me and protect me from such things. Peace and tranquility to your graveyard." After the cemetery, sprinkle with spring water or holy water the place where the objects were found, it is advisable to fumigate with juniper, St. John's wort or wormwood. Then wash your hands thoroughly with running water, take a shower and douse yourself with a bucket of cold water.
In the past, among the Slavs, wormwood occupied an honorable place on the shelves of herbalists. Wormwood has the ability to restore our harmony with nature.

They wove wreaths on their heads from it, and also girded themselves with it in order to protect themselves for a whole year from evil spirits, witchcraft and diseases. It was said that sometimes it was enough to pronounce the name of this plant to stop the effect of witchcraft.
In the fight against the forces of evil, wormwood is hardly inferior to St. John's wort, its smell is able to expel almost any evil spirits from the house, so it is most often used in the form of incense.
However, be careful! With a strong concentration of wormwood smoke, people can begin to hallucinate. A completely safe method of using mugwort is to hang it around the house in bunches. Her smell alone will expel evil spirits from the house. The properties of wormwood increase on the waning moon. To protect against unclean forces, only the upper part is collected - the apical non-woody parts of the shoots, the whole plant is not used, dried leaves are needed for fumigation. An absolutely safe method of using it is to hang a small bunch of this herb in the house (preferably in the bedroom or corridor).
Personally, I use it in my work like this: I buy dry wormwood in a box in a pharmacy - it’s enough to put from a teaspoon to a tablespoon on a clean, hot frying pan and when white smoke starts to go, we start working. if the house is "bad" - just enough to fumigate, if it's very "bad" we do this: we stand with our backs to the front door and, with the strongest negativity, we go counterclockwise with a steaming frying pan in our hand, fumigating all corners. do not forget to warn the brownie that you will be cleaning the housing and ask him to hide during the cleaning. sometimes the ceremony goes smoothly, there are knocks and cods, slamming doors, do not pay attention - wormwood is smoking in your hand and you are protected. at will - read prayers, conspiracies for cleansing or mantras, everything that you consider to help yourself. Finish cleaning there at the door. if the house is private, throw the ashes over the threshold onto the ground. if the apartment is from the balcony, or flushed into the sink with water, it does not matter. then hang one panicle of wormwood at the door, one in the head and one at the foot of the bed, a sofa under the mattress. everything is clear! if before that you also washed the floors with salt - you have no price)))))))) now you are cleaning yourself and airing the house.

And it depends very much on it, the anti-demonic properties of wormwood increase in its waning phase.

It is distinguished by a great variety of species, and all of them have different magical properties, especially the so-called "common wormwood." Previously, it was hung indoors, fires were lit near the house to drive away evil spirits. Women made brooms from wormwood and swept all the negativity out of the house with garbage ...

6) It is also very useful to clean the mirrors in the house with water with an infusion of wormwood, especially if you yourself made this infusion from your weed collected on the day of strength !!! Why is this - mirrors (all) are connected with the other world . They absorb all the energy of the residents. They need to be cleaned periodically.

Without pre-treatment, wormwood is used to treat wounds, ulcers, abscesses, fistulas, skin inflammations. To do this, compresses with crushed grass or tampons with wormwood juice are applied to the affected areas of the skin. Fresh wormwood juice is used both for medicinal purposes and to stimulate appetite. In oriental medicine, specially made wormwood sticks are used to cauterize active points (reflexogenic zones) on the skin. But more often for medicinal purposes, preparations from wormwood (infusions, decoctions, tinctures, oils, ointments) are used, which are made from fresh or dried herbs.

The most widespread infusions. To prepare them, they usually take a tablespoon of fresh herbs or half a spoonful of dry herbs in a glass of boiling water, insist for at least half an hour in a tightly closed vessel. Take 1 tablespoon 3 times a day

30 minutes before meals for the treatment of women's diseases, gastritis, peptic ulcer of the stomach and duodenum, inflammation of the kidneys and bladder, as a diuretic, expectorant and tonic. Infusions of wormwood with thyme are used to treat alcoholism.

To prepare decoctions, take wormwood and water in the same ratio as for infusions, but bring to a boil over low heat or in a water bath and simmer for 15-20 minutes. Tinctures that are made with alcohol, vodka or dry wine are usually used to treat diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, remove stones from the kidneys and bladder. In addition, it is believed that they contribute to the removal of toxins and excess fat from the body.

However, the systematic use of even small doses of absinthe “for appetite” eventually led to “wormwood epilepsy” and serious damage to the nervous system. Therefore, the production of absinthe was drastically reduced, and now it is not often possible to find it on sale.

In reference books, you can find various descriptions of formulations of drugs with wormwood and methods for treating many diseases with them. When using wormwood as a medicine, one should not forget that it can not only cure diseases, but also cause significant harm if used in excessive quantities and without consulting a doctor.
