Anecdotal: The spirit within Caltha is invoked to address spiritual pain and reconcile severe endopsychic wounds. This property extends to include exorcising malevolent spirits suspected of stealing or impairing self-expression or the conveyance of sacred songs. In spirit handling it can be entreated to thwart the undesirable attention of another. Deeply connected to rebirth, Caltha flowers are strewn or tied up into garlands for spring rituals.
