As a new month is ushered in – and spring is finally on the horizon – you might be feeling an urge to rejuvenate your space and set some new intentions. And according to herbalists and spiritual experts, now is the perfect time to perform a time-honored ritual: sprinkling basil across your doorways.
This might not be the first strategy that comes to mind when you think of welcoming good fortune into your home, but basil isn't just the hero of a hearty soup or a summer salad. The humble herb has long been associated with both protection and prosperity, and sprinkling it across thresholds is believed to help refresh the energy inside your home.
