Holloway Yew Root Hag Spirit (HGS32)
This natural and earthy Hag Spirit figure has been newly created from the root of a windfallen yew. The piece contains a range of natural colours and markings within it.
The wood was carefully gathered from a beautiful holloway, a lane walked by people dating back into the mists of time (read more here). The wood is a beautifully warm colour and feels full of positive energies. The piece contains a hole within it, reminiscent of a hagstone. Within mythology, hags are powerful and complex female figures.
The figure is incredibly tactile, so feels good to hold during meditation or for ritual use. It carries a protective root and herb bundle which can be best seen in the second-to-last photo. It includes the leaves of wormwood, and enchanter's nightshade. 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.
The roots of Solomon's seal, yarrow and St. John's wort are added to the bundle. Yarrow brings its strong associations with clairvoyance and powers to promote divination, and St. John's Wort is traditionally used to repel negative energies. Mugwort brings its history of being used to aid clairvoyance, lucid dreaming and astral projection. The bundle is finished with the dried flowers of yarrow.
Raven and tawny owl feathers, and a medicine bag complete the figure. The bag contains dried rowan berries, traditionally associated with protection, and our protective herb blend, created from herbs which are traditionally considered to aid protection and bring energies of peace.
The figure itself is filled with dried white horehound, along with more of the protective herb blend. White horehound is considered to be one of the best plants to use for warding off evil spirits and keeping negativity away, and is well-known for it's use against hexes and curses. The herbs are sealed inside the Hag Spirit with a plug of heather.
A bindrune for ancestral connection has been added to the base of the figure, and this can be seen in the last photo.
