Also known as Candle Berry, Myrica, Tallow Shrub, Waxberry and Wax Myrtle
A familiar shrub from New England, this plant is valued primarily for the wax from its berries. Harder and more brittle than beeswax, the wax is used in candles, and is also the signature ingredient of Bay Rum for the hair.
Used in rituals to attract money and good fortune.
A pinch kept in the purse or wallet is said to make your money last longer.
An infusion can be used to anoint candles and ritual tools to attract success, or added to your ritual bath.
Bayberry can be used alone or in a blend with other herbs for incense burning.
