~The Legend of Lavender~
Lavender was often associated with love & purity alike. If someone lost a loved one, they used lavender to heal the heart.
It was also said to protect small children who would wear it on their shirts to “avert the evil eye”.
A cross of lavender was hung on the door to safeguard against evil, and at childbirth, lavender & sandalwood were sometimes burned to ease the pain.
Donning a lavender oil perfume was said to make it easier to go through menopause, or to relieve headaches or stress. Sometimes the flower was hung on bedposts for protection.
