Ancient Associations
Known as the Witch’s Guardian, angelica root has long been revered by witches for its potent protective and purifying properties. In ancient times, it was believed to be a gift from celestial forces, shielding practitioners from malevolent influences and dark energies. European witches carried angelica root as a ward against curses, ill fortune, and disease, while American folk Magick traditions used it to break hexes and provide spiritual fortification. With its strong ties to divine protection and healing, angelica root remains a cornerstone in Magickal workings of strength and spiritual resilience.
