Rose hips are a powerful natural ingredient with both medicinal and spiritual uses.

Magical Use: rosehips are associated with love, beauty, protection, and abundance, often used in charm bags, glamour spells, baths, and love spells, and are believed to represent the seeds of love and new beginnings.

You can string rosehips to create a necklace and charge it with the intent to attract a mate. Sharing rosehip tea with a loved one can inspire romance. Place rosehips around your home to bring harmony and peace, especially after arguments, or tuck them into drawers and cupboards.

To banish nightmares, place some rosehips under your pillow. You might want to use dried hips for this, and place them in a little pouch, since fresh ones could end up leaving you with a sticky, squishy, unpleasant surprise in the morning!

Since rosehips house rose seeds, they’re a good general addition to spells to increase anything. All seeds have immense potential and are used in magic for growth, so you can include rosehips in any spell to increase love (including self-love), money, luck, you name it.
