The Spiritual Significance

For so small a seed, mustard carries a great deal of magic. In Scott Cunningham's correspondences mustard is a masculine seed of Mars and the element Fire, with the powers of fertility, protection, and mental sharpness, and its hot, biting nature is the source of its protective force. Across folk and hoodoo practice mustard seed is scattered around the home and across the threshold to guard the house, keep enemies away, and turn back ill intent, sometimes sprinkled in the shoes or path to confuse and repel those who mean harm.

The seed's other great meaning comes from scripture, where faith the size of a mustard seed could move mountains. That image made mustard a seed of faith and courage, carried to steady the nerve and to stand for the large results that grow from a small, determined beginning. Sharp, fiery, and defensive, brown mustard seed is a protector's seed, kept to guard the door, hold the line, and back a working with hot Martian nerve.
