Rue has long been celebrated in ancient European and Mediterranean traditions as a powerful protective herb.

Roman and Greek priests commonly used rue to purify their temples, and it has often been referred to as the 'Herb of Grace.' Folklore also speaks of its ability to break curses and dispel envy or ill will cast by others.

Rue can be burned as an incense, carried as an amulet, or sprinkled around the home to ward off negativity.

Use its dried leaves in protection sachets, or add it to purification baths to cleanse the aura and invite spiritual strength.

It is especially potent in rituals calling upon Archangel Michael for protection.

Traditionally, rue has been used in folk practices to support digestion and as a calming agent for nerves, though it is used sparingly due to its potency.
