Origin & Lore

Eucalyptus is native to Australia, where it has long been used by Aboriginal peoples, and it spread around the world in the nineteenth century as plantations were planted from California to the Mediterranean. In modern magick its sharp, clean scent is used for cleansing, protection and spiritual renewal.

Eucalyptus trees release so much aromatic vapour that the haze over Australia’s Blue Mountains is widely attributed to it.

Eucalyptus was planted widely in the nineteenth century in places like California and Italy, partly in the belief that it would drain swamps and improve the air. In modern witchcraft, popular herbals assigned it to the Moon and to healing and protection, and it became a common addition to cleansing baths.
