Cucumber’s Magickal Properties

Beauty (inner and outer): Empower this green fruit for beauty and use it as a face mask, eye compress, or in beauty spells. You can also use its juice as part of a beauty potion! Because this fruit is so hydrating, it’s great for beauty spells that work from the inside out, as well!
Fertility: Carry a cucumber with you when trying to conceive to help balance your feminine energies with masculine energies. You can also use this in sympathetic magic.
Healing: In ancient times, these were used to heal swelling, exhaustion, hangovers, scorpion bites, and much more! Place this fruit on your altar during healing spells or eat when you are feeling ill. Pickles also work well for healing.
Youth: Similar to beauty work, use this as part of your beauty regimen or in beauty and youth spells.
