===== Magical Uses =====
The papaya has long been used in magical rites. One of the simplest of these is to tie a rag around a limb of a papaya tree while visualizing your need.

Hang several twigs of papaya wood over the doorsill; this will keep evil from entering the house.

Eat the fruit and serve to a loved one; it will intensify feelings of love.
