Verbena hastata is native to North America and is incredibly similar in appearance and properties to its European cousin \u003cem\u003eVerbena officinalis,\u003c\/em\u003e which it is often mistaken for. It grows with wild abandon in the Great Plains section of America, and can be found elsewhere on prairies, in meadows, and in open woodlands. The Dakota tribe’s name for it translates as “medicine”.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSeveral of the names for vervain (Herb of the Cross, Herb of Grace, Holy wort) refer to the legend that the wounds of Jesus were dressed with vervain when he was taken down from the cross. This is disputed among biblical scholars as it is not referenced anywhere in modern Bibles. It was also used as an ingredient in pagan love potions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNote: Since the herb can stimulate uterine contractions, avoid during pregnancy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn Magick, Vervain is ruled by Earth and Venus. An excellent herb to use in all types of spells to deepen relationships. A wonderful herb to use for purification of all types and in protection blends.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor educational purposes only.
