===== Magical Uses ===== This resin from a palm tree is burned to entice errant lovers to return. This is usually done by women seated near an open window, looking outside, at night. A stick of dragon's blood placed under the pillow or mattress will cure impotency. The dried resin is a powerful protectant when carried, sprinkled around the house, or smouldered as incense. It will also drive evil and negativity away when burned. A pinch of dragon's blood added to other incenses increases their potency and power. To quiet a noisy house, powder some dragon's blood, mix it with sugar and salt, and place in a bottle. Cover this tightly and secure it somewhere in your house where it won't be found. You'll have peace and quiet.
