(Carum carvi) G
Folk Names: Kummel, Alcaravea
Gender: Masculine
Planet: Mercury

Magical Uses: The caraway serves as protection
against Lilith, as well as all manner of
evil spirits, entities and plain old negativity.
It is often carried for this purpose. Any
object which holds some caraway seeds is
theft-proof.
The seeds are also used to encourage
fidelity, and are placed in sachets and
talismans to attract a mate. When baked
into cookies, bread, or cakes they are lustinducing.
Chewing the seeds is helpful to
gain the love of one you desire.
They also strengthen the memory, and
a small bag of the seeds placed in a child’s
bed protects the child from illness.
