Use in Rituals, Spells, and Magickal Workings
Cannabis leaves, buds (flowers), seeds, and roots can be used in magickal workings, fresh, dried, or powdered. Cannabis is used in magickal workings to assist in astral travel, hedge riding, and meditation. It’s useful in workings to increase healing, and as herbal incense.
