   • Enhances prophetic dreams and allows messages to surface in sleep.

3. Infusion for Shadow Anointing (Non-ingestible version)

   • Use this infusion to anoint scrying mirrors, black candles, or the forehead before shadow meditations.

4. Cleansing and Banishing Rituals

   • Scatter mugwort at doorways and windows to drive away unwanted energies.

   • Add it to spell jars or banishing pouches to sever ties with toxic influences.
