Formed over time by water moving through stone, hag stones have carried a place in British and European folk belief for centuries. Hung at doors, windows, bedsides and amongst livestock, they were traditionally kept as protective charms against harmful influences, misfortune and ill intent.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTheir natural opening also gave rise to another piece of folklore: that looking through the hole could reveal the \u003cstrong\u003efae realm\u003c\/strong\u003e, help \u003cstrong\u003edrop illusion\u003c\/strong\u003e, and allow a person to see what ordinary sight might miss.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is this old protective tradition that gives Guardian’s Wand its character.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLavender brings peace and purification. Catnip brings protection and calm. Dandelion — a plant that pushes through cracks, poor soil and disturbed ground — brings resilience and the strength to endure. Palo Santo brings cleansing and protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTogether, they are bound for one purpose: protection and peace.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOnly 5 Guardian’s Wands were made in this batch, using botanicals grown and gathered in the Yarrow Moon garden.
