cholla cactus wood

Use cholla wood to strengthen personal wards and boundaries, and in defense of your independence. 

The cholla cactus is often maligned for the inconvenience and irritation it causes those who wander too close to it... not unlike a person learning to uphold their own personal boundaries might be, by those who were accustomed to ignoring those boundaries. The cholla gives no fucks. It will grow where planted, no matter what hardships it endures. 

If you're looking for that energy - that perseverance, that inner strength and confidence - it doesn't get better than the cholla. And more specifically, it doesn't get better than the inner structure of a cholla that gives that plant its tenacity: cholla wood.
