Cinquefoil (Five Finger Grass)
 | Prosperity, Balance, Protection, Prophetic
Dreams |
   
 | The five leaves, or fingers, of the
Cinquefoil represent the elements of fire, water, earth, air and spirit or
love, health, prosperity, wisdom and the spiritual, other-worldly realm. |
 | Place a sachet of Cinquefoil in your pillow
case to encourage psychic dreams, or burn a bit as incense just before
sleeping. For some reason, this seems
to be most effective if you have Latin ancestry (be it in this life or a
previous one). |
 |
For a wonderful and all
purpose anointing oil, infuse 1 cup of mild or unscented vegetable oil
(sweet almond is best) with 1 cup of Cinquefoil leaves. Leave this to steep
for a period of 3 moons, gently shaking the jar every day. On the third full
moon, strain the oil and bury the spent leaves nearby your home, and charge
the oil in moonlight. If you like, further scent your oil with a few drops
of your favorite essential oil (sandalwood, cedar-wood or lavender work
well). |
 |
Bathe in an infusion of
Cinquefoil to break hexes and for protection. Keep a jarful of the infusion
in your refrigerator and regularly wash your hands in this for added
protection. |
 |
Carry a sachet of Cinquefoil
on your person when you will be called upon to speak before a group. This
should aid in your eloquence and ensure a positive outcome. |
