Horehound (Marrubium vulgare)

Horehound is a time-honored herb traditionally used to support respiratory health. Known for its bitter, expectorant qualities, it’s effective in loosening mucus, calming coughs, and soothing sore throats. Often found in herbal cough syrups and lozenges, horehound is a natural ally for colds, bronchitis, and seasonal respiratory concerns.

Spiritually, horehound is associated with protection, purification, and truth. It’s used in rituals to ward off negative energy, cut through confusion, and enhance mental clarity. As a boundary-setting herb, horehound is powerful for spiritual shielding and clearing energetic clutter. It is a staple for practitioners of magick because it is a counter-magick herb. A powerful part of bath or clearing work, it can be steeped for a protective spray, or for a protective libation to give during warfare or after a huge victory. May use to dress and treat candles, or to protect property and home. Can be used to treat gridding crystals as well.

Precautions: Horehound should be used in moderation. Not recommended during pregnancy, as it may stimulate uterine contractions. May affect blood sugar levels—use with caution if diabetic or taking blood sugar-regulating medications. Always consult a qualified healthcare professional before use.
