In culture of different countries vervain was considered to be a remedy. 
It is the main ingredient of “magic drinks”. It heats dying fire of love, harmonises hostile parties, and lays evil spirits. Ancient Slavs devoted vervain to Lyub — Slavic spirit-keeper of a marriage bed. A fresh or dried bunch of this ‘holy’ flower was an essential element of each sleeping room. Old Russian spring feast “Red Hill” was organized in honour of god Lyub and goddess of love Lada. The Slavs represented god Lyub as a cat with golden fir and a vervain stem in its mouth (using vervain it drove away Nelyub that was also a cat destroying family happiness).
