  • Yarrow Folklore: Protection, Prophecy, & Plant Spirit Power
    Jul 17 2025

    In this solo episode of From Nature to Nurture, we wander into the mythic, magical world of Yarrow, a plant long honored as a protector, diviner, and bridge between realms.

    This is not a breakdown of Yarrow’s physical medicine (that’s in a past episode!). Instead, we’re exploring the ancient stories, superstitions, and spiritual uses that have followed this plant across time and many cultures.

    You’ll hear:

    • Yarrow's role in love divination, dream work, and burial rites
    • How Yarrow was used to ward off unwanted spirits and protect the home
    • Why this plant holds deep energetic significance for boundary work
    • Ways to connect with Yarrow on a spirit and ritual level today

    If you’ve ever felt the pull of the old ways or wanted to know how plants were once revered as allies and oracles — this one’s for you.

    🌿 Listen in, and may the path be lined with yarrow.
