Caraway Essential Oil

Caraway is helpful in love magick to keep the other from straying (or being stolen away), especially if they ingest caraway-sprinkled cakes. It has also been used to prevent the theft of physical objects that contain it, . Likewise, in Hoodoo, caraway seeds are seen as protective of children; this has spread into general magical practice in the US. As a Mercury herb, caraway is helpful in the acquisition of magical skills and for initiation into esotericism. Its scent, which is not like rye bread but a bit musky, has a whiff of the Underworld to it, which makes it appropriate for psychopomp rituals.  Steam-distilled from Carum carvi seed in Hungary. Top
