Alfalfa - Dried Herb

Known as a symbol of abundance and resilience, alfalfa’s deep roots anchor it firmly to the Earth, reflecting its powerful grounding and stabilizing properties.

In European and American folk magic, alfalfa is kept in jars or pouches to ward off poverty and ensure financial stability, while its association with the Earth element makes it a favorite for grounding and centering rituals in Wiccan, Hoodoo, and Neopagan practices.

Hoodoo and Conjure practitioners value alfalfa as a “money herb,” often combining it with coins or placing it in prosperity spells to attract wealth.

Additionally, its use as a protective charm against bad fortune or harmful influences further solidifies its role in various protective spells.

The resilience of alfalfa allows it to grow in harsh conditions.  This quality has also been linked to fertility and health, making it a staple for both personal and agricultural well-being.

Alfalfa is not only a symbol of material prosperity but also a guardian of stability, making it a cherished herb across magical traditions and cultures.

Its enduring association with Earth energy, fertility, and growth has cemented its role in rituals for grounding, prosperity, and protection across various magical traditions.
