Cat’s Claw Bark Jar
"The jungle defends itself with thorns—so too must the spirit."
Cat’s Claw Bark (Uncaria tomentosa) is a potent herb of strength, endurance, and protection. Named for the curved hooks that allow it to cling and climb toward the light, Cat’s Claw embodies the balance between gentleness and survival. In magick, it’s used to fortify the aura, defend sacred space, and repel spiritual predators or draining influences. Its grounding nature makes it excellent for spellwork centered on defense, perseverance, or reclaiming power after hardship. Burn, grind, or carry in protective charms to awaken resilience and unwavering will.
Packaged in a glass jar with a bamboo lid and filled by volume, not weight. Because bark pieces are coarse and lightweight, some settling may occur during shipping. Each jar is ready for apothecary display or direct ritual use.
