10 whole cloves in a little, foil-lined bag. (Important: these are cloves the tangy spice, not garlic cloves.)
The perfect portion if you have a toothache! You don't need a whole expensive bottle of cloves, you need just a few to put in your mouth.
Also good to add to tea, or to place with tongs on lit charcoal for a sweet aroma or offering.
Traditional Uses...
This herb is both tasty and useful: if you have a toothache you can place it directly on the aching tooth for instant numbing! It is also good made into a "tea" that you can swish in your mouth, or even apply to skin-wounds.
Metaphysical Uses: Clove is good in prayers, wishes, or spells for passion, luck, or prosperity. Cloves are aligned with the Element of Fire. Put 2-3 cloves in hot water to brew a tea from it, to wash your mouth or wounds in, or simply to sip.
Metaphysical Uses: Cloves, like Cinnamon, can be used to create a sacred space. Burn them on charcoal (in a heat-proof container) or make a tea by steeping 2-3 of them in 1 cup of water, then flicking the water with a spoon upon and around your altar-space. Cloves are also used in money and wealth-spells, and requests for new friends and lovers.
