Seed magick

[Freestarwins]

Is there a practice or tradition or resource which focuses a lot on the magick of seeds like philosophy and spells using seeds specifically?

I haven't particularly seen anything like that, but given their symbolism (birth, potential, abundance, growth) there's a very rich path of research there! I would be so interested to hear anything you are discovering.

Most forms of folk magic give seeds different magical attributes, and I've seen them used the same way eggs might be used for their symbolism like above^. But generally the seeds of different plants aren't treated equally, they are each given different attributes the way herbs and stones would be.

As I recall, there's a few bits of magickal folklore regarding seeds:
A dried bean or fresh bean may be rubbed on a wart and planted at moondark. As the bean sprouts, the wart will die and wither away.
If you put thirteen sesame seeds in a tiny cloth sachet and sew it shut, it will act as a charm against the notice of those who wish you ill.
Throwing unshelled hazelnuts into a fire is said to grant answers to queries: If the nut and shell pop loudly, its a yes, if they merely blacken, the answer is no.
