Holloway Spiral Protection Amulets (PE1804)
These pendants are newly carved from the roots of windfallen holloway trees - pendant #1 from yew root, and pendant #2 from oak root. They each have a spiral added, an ancient symbol of life and life force. They are comfortingly warm and tactile, inviting you to hold and touch them.
The pendants are filled with our protective herb blend which includes herbs respectfully gathered from the land surrounding the sacred site of Stonehenge. Betony and the root of enchanter's nightshade are also added.
Betony is traditionally associated with protection, both of the area surrounding it, and of the person carrying or wearing it. If placed beneath the pillow, it's considered to protect the sleeper against nightmares. It's also associated with dispelling negativity and soothing tensions.
Enchanter's nightshade has long associations with witchcraft and sorcery. It's considered to aid inner conflict and has been traditionally used to find balance by bringing opposites together. Binding, hexing and enchantment is also associated with this beautiful herb. It is also connected with the goddess of the moon, and was used in spells and rituals to call upon her power.
The herbs are sealed inside the pendants with a plug of holloway mistletoe.
The outside edge of the pendants has Old Norse runic script saying "Til verja", meaning to protect, and the back of the pendants has a bindrune for protection added. These can be seen in the second-to-last photo.
