Protection
Kidney Vetch (Anthyllis vulneraria) has an ancient use associated with protection and counter-magic. It appears in European practices as early as the 17th century intended to neutralize effects attributed to witchcraft and preserve against hostile influences.
It was notably used in protective preparations intended for people, animals, and property. Its old name, Woundwort, evokes the action of undoing or canceling and reinforces its association with workings intended to break a malevolent influence and restore a protected situation.
Kidney Vetch can thus accompany workings for protection, clearing, counter-magic, and neutralization of hostile influences.
Other names: Woundwort.
⸺ Please note: ritual use only, not for food or cosmetics.

Buy Kidney Vetch from our esoteric shop
Kidney vetch (Anthyllis vulneraria) has a long-standing European heritage associated with protection and counter-magic. It appears notably in practices documented in the early modern period, when certain plant preparations were used to protect people, animals, and property from effects attributed to witchcraft. This protective reputation makes it a particularly interesting plant for workings intended to neutralize an influence considered hostile.
An ancient plant of protection and counter-magic
In European folk practices, kidney vetch was included in preparations intended to counter malicious influences, protect a household, or safeguard anything at risk of being affected by occult action. It is therefore associated with an active conception of protection: the aim is not only to establish a barrier, but also to symbolically undo an action already set in motion and restore a situation regarded as healthy and protected.
A plant for neutralizing hostile influences
Kidney vetch can be incorporated into workings for protection, uncrossing, counter-magic, and the neutralization of hostile influences. It may be used in protective sachets, herbal blends, or preparations intended to accompany a ritual cleansing. Its traditional use makes it suitable for workings aimed at breaking a malicious influence and symbolically restoring protection to a person, animal, possession, or place.
