Additionally, wearing lavender may provide protection from mistreatment by a spouse.

Lavender is commonly burned or smoldered to promote sleep, and can be scattered throughout the home to maintain a peaceful atmosphere. This powerful plant is believed to have the ability to alleviate sadness and bring feelings of joy when gazed upon, making it a valuable addition to any space.

The fragrance of lavender may promote longevity and should be inhaled regularly for those who prioritize a long life.

Lavender is a versatile herb that has been historically used in healing mixtures, as a talisman to ward off and reveal spirits, and for protection against the evil eye. It is also commonly added to purification baths for its cleansing properties.

In the Renaissance era, it was believed that wearing Lavender and Rosemary could safeguard a woman's purity, despite the romantic connotations commonly associated with Lavender.

To increase your chances of achieving your wish, place Lavender under your pillow before going to sleep.

If there are no related dreams, it is likely that your wish will not manifest.
