Blueberry

Basic Trivia

The blueberry plant flowers perennially, and produces indigo colored berries. Interestingly, the leaves of the blueberry plant can be either deciduous, or evergreen. They typically give of fruit in the middle of the growing season. The nature of the plant is effected heartily by the conditions in which it grows. The wild, or lowbush blueberries are prized for their intense color. The wild blueberry is often such a strong grower, that it can produce what is know as “blueberry wastelands,” where for a large stretch of land, nothing but blueberries will grow. 

Magical Uses (from Scott Cunningham’s “Encyclopedia of Magical Herbs”)

Folk Names: Bilberry

Power: Protection

Magickal Uses: Place some blueberries beneath the doormat to keep undesirables away from your property, or from entering your home. This protects against evil as well.

Make blueberry pies or tarts and eat when under psychic attack; this gets the protection inside you and increases the herb’s effectiveness.
