Catnip (Nepeta cataria) is a perennial herb belonging to the Lamiaceae (Mint) family. Native to Southern Europe, Western and Central Asia, and North Africa, it is now cultivated and naturalized in many parts of the world. The plant features soft green-grey leaves, delicate white flowers with purple speckles, and a refreshing minty, slightly lemon-like fragrance.

In spiritual and folk traditions, Catnip is commonly associated with love, happiness, friendship, relaxation, protection, good fortune, intuition, and positive energy. Many practitioners include dried Catnip in love rituals, spell jars, altar offerings, incense blends, meditation, mojo bags, and herbal sachets. These symbolic associations are rooted in traditional folklore and cultural practices and are not scientifically established.
