Herbs associated with the New Year symbolize good fortune, cleansing, and fresh starts, with popular choices including Rosemary (clarity, remembrance), Basil (abundance, protection), Lavender (peace, happiness), Thyme (courage, strength), and Mint (growth, renewal), often used in cooking, teas, smudging, or oils for rituals. Sage, Bay Leaves, Cinnamon, and Parsley also feature prominently for purification, success, and good luck in traditions.
