Used in mojo bags for protection and for bravery in battle, Woodruff is sacred to Saint Walpurga, an abbess and missionary who is celebrated at the German Walpurgisnacht, a feast held on the night of April 30 and the day of May 1. It can be used to escape pursuers, as Walpurga was said to have done when pursued through the woods each year by hounds. Carry it and use her trick of standing in a triangle carved into a stump top, and your pursuers will simply pass you by.
