Pagan Eye: Fresh Sweetcorn - A Good Harvest
It has apparently been a good year for the sweetcorn harvest – or so I learnt when watching Gardeners’ World the other day.
The picture of a corn on the cob was taken by Jane Mortimer, who wrote: “I just had to share a pic of the most perfectly pollinated corn cob I’ve ever seen. There were a couple more niblets sprouting out of the top but they came off when I peeled it. The cob was so big I couldn’t eat all of it – first time I’ve been defeated by sweetcorn!”
Corn of all kinds can be used in spells for luck, growth, fertility and abundance. So, if you really are defeated by an enormous cob, you can use the remainder in your magic. A Native American tradition is to make dolls out of corn husks, or leaves. The dried leaves are soaked to make them pliable before being folded into doll shapes, then left to dry again. You can see a Canadian example in the online collection of the V and A Museum of Childhood.
My Pagan Eye posts show photos that I find interesting – seasonal images, pagan sites, events, or just pretty pictures. If you want to send me a photo for a Pagan Eye post, please email it to [email protected] Let me know what the photo shows and whether you want your name mentioned or not. For copyright reasons, the photo must be one you have taken yourself.
