Nettle is known for its anti-inflammatory, diuretic, and detoxifying properties. It supports kidney health, treats allergies, and is rich in iron, making it beneficial for anemia.
 
Nettle is seen as a spiritually protective and grounding herb with strong connections to vitality, energy, and strength. Its stinging nature reflects its spiritual properties of both defense and transformation. Nettle is often seen as a plant that creates boundaries, both physically (with its stings) and energetically. It acts as a protective shield, warding off negative influences and harmful energies. On a spiritual level, nettle helps strengthen personal boundaries, making it easier to say "no" and protect one's energy.
