Cloves
Cloves have long been used in various folk magic and witchcraft traditions as a protective and purifying herb. They were often carried in charm bags or burned as incense to ward off negative energy, jealousy, or ill will, and to “warm” or strengthen spells tied to attraction and prosperity.
In some traditions, cloves are also associated with banishing unwanted influences and enhancing psychic focus, partly because of their strong, penetrating scent and preservative qualities, which symbolically link them to preservation and protection.
