Place Buckthorn Bark near your doors and windows for protection and to ward off any negative energy. According to legend, sprinkling Buckthorn in a circle and dancing in under a full moon will cause an elf to appear. The dancer must notice the elf and say, “Halt and grant my boon!” before it flees and will grant one wish. Buckthorn can also be used in legal matters and as a general good luck generator!
