Butterwort, A Charm of Protection

Butterwort, a Charm of Protection. This ancient charm is infused with the old Gaelic/Scots wisdom and magic that is drawn from everyday interactions with nature. It is encoded with knowledge that has been handed down and the enduring lore of the land. It's a prayer of great protection, as well as comfort, as it reminds us that nature provides everything we need. This prayer is also a celebration of the fairy women - the ancestors - who gathered this herb and is a reminder that such medicine belongs to the realm of the faeries, the realm of spirit. Butterwort is gathered in a specific way that emphasizes awareness, tradition and reverence. This prayer highlights that as we gather, we commune with the spirits, most especially and importantly, with the spirit of the plant. We must seek to understand and honour that spirit.
