Herb Magick: Horsetail
Note: My blog contains affiliate links/ads from advertisers from which I may earn advertising commissions.
Horsetail, Equisetum segetale
The planet Saturn rules Horsetail. Its element is Earth, its direction is North, its day is Saturday, and its magickal power is To Keep Silence. The energetic effect of Horsetail is feminine, receptive, and passive; and, its associated Deities are Cassiel (angel), and Aratron (Olympic Spirit).
Use in Rituals, Spells, and Magickal Workings
Horsetail can be used in magickal workings, fresh, dried, or powdered, to strengthen connections with others, and remove negativity.
Magickal Methodologies
- Fresh or dried Horsetail can be used whole on the altar or workspace during magickal workings.
- Dried Horsetail can be added to mojo or charm bags and then carried with you to influence a desired outcome.
- Dried Horsetail can be powdered and then added to a simmer pot or powdered and added to the top of a candle (pillar, votive, tea light).
- You can also anoint a candle with oil and then roll the candle in powdered Horsetail.
- Make a Horsetail infusion with fresh or dried aerial parts, and then use the infusion to paint on a small piece of parchment paper or runestock to enhance a working. For example, paint the infusion on a piece of runestock (or parchment paper rolled into a small scroll) prior to creating a bindrune to carry with you or to invoke rune magick.
