Holloway Yew Spiral Amulets (PE1799)

These pendants are newly carved from the root of a windfallen holloway yew. 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 betony and enchanter's nightshade which is sealed inside with a plug of blackthorn, gathered at the time of Beltane.

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.

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.

The back of the pendants has a bindrune for protection added and this can be seen in the second-to-last photo.
