Garden sage is a versatile herb in witchcraft, primarily used for cleansing, protection, and wisdom. It’s often burned to purify spaces, objects, and auras, clearing away negative energy and creating a fresh spiritual slate. Witches also use sage in spellwork for healing, clarity, and strength, either as a dried herb in sachets or brewed into teas for insight. While commonly associated with banishing negativity, sage is also a powerful tool for enhancing intuition and mental focus, making it a staple in rituals and everyday magic.
