Description

St. John's Wort gets it's name for the fact that it both flowers near and is traditionally harvested on St. John The Baptist Day. St. John's wort hung in bundles in the home as well as crafted in wreathes and hung on the door for protection.
-A sprig of the herb carried in the pocket or carried in a bag around the neck was a sure charm to keep away the devil.
-Fresh St. John's Wort rubbed on the doors and door frames of a house protects it from lightening and storm damage.
-St. John's Wort carried on the person destroys a witch's power to harm.
-The leaves of St. John's Wort could be uses in a fortune-telling rite to determine who a young woman would marry.
-If one sleeps with a sprig of St. John's Wort under their pillow, St. John The Baptist will appear in one's dreams.

In modern times the belief that St. John's Wort has the power to chase away darkness is carried over into it's use as an antidepressant. The plant is an effective and natural treatment for mild cases of depression.
