Uses in magic:

• When doing a spell to help separate yourself from someone or to banish them, using a thorn to represent them can be a powerful metaphor.
• If you do blood magic, use the thorn (AFTER THOROUGHLY CLEANING IT) to lightly prick your side. Another powerful metaphor.
• If you are doing a hex jar that requires shaking, these are good additives to it.

Symbolism:

• Can represent a person who is causing you pain and suffering
• Can represent a hardship.
• Can represent physical/emotional pain
