Magical Herbs

Besides protecting warriors, larkspur is said to keep away scorpions and venemous snakes as well as more ethereal threats, like ghosts. On a lighter side, it stands for levity in the language of flowers. It's the birth flower for the month of July. Larkspur is nice mixed with other Summer Solstice herbs - lavender, cinquefoil, mugwort, roses, elder, fennel, vervain, and hemp - in potpourri or incense. It's very pretty for potpourri.
