Use garlic to ward off negativity and dispel nightmares; for protection in a moving vehicle or on a boat; to guard against evil, gossip, thieves, and jealousy; to put in a bridal bouquet for good luck; to sprinkle on the doorstep to keep unsavory individuals away; to wear around the neck to dispel disease; to rub into pots and pans to remove negative vibrations; and to hang over windows to absorb negativity.

It can be placed in spell bottles to defeat enemies, and empowered during the dark Moon to shield and protect abused wives and children.
