As a flower essence, holly is the remedy for anger, envy, jealousy, and suspicion. It is the antidote for hatred. In the words of Dr. Bach: "holly protects us from everything that is not Universal Love." He suggested using holly when no other remedy was apparent, seeing lack of love as the ultimate foundation of any negative emotional state.Holly is a protective tree, guarding against poison, evil spirits, and evil sorcerers.A spear of the holly gives focus and direction to spiritual struggles. It will sharpen your wits and give you the courage to succeed in your quest.
