The Sidhe are a huge part in the lives of the Celts. Druids considered this one of their sacred herbs, used to repel negativity and depression. Thyme was among the 3 or 4 herbs upon which Mary and the Christ bedded in Bethlehem of Judea, and so it has become an herb to be in the gardens of Holy places.
