These flowers are also associated with the Virgin Mary, and denote Her tears. According to a Native American folklore, the credit for creating larkspur flowers goes to a celestial figure who was curious about the Earth. The celestial figure tore open the evening sky, and used a piece of the sky to create a spike so that she could climb down to the Earth. The spike had small blue pieces of sky attached to it. The sun dried out the spike, which disintegrated into small pieces that were scattered on the Earth. Larkspur flowers originated from these pieces.

Throughout history, many believed larkspur held mystical qualities thanks to its strong fragrance. For centuries, it was used to ward off evil and magic. One of the most ancient of these revolved around spreading larkspur petals around homes to ward off scorpions, which were associated with death and devilry. Another in Transylvania had citizens hanging larkspur in barns to frighten witches away.
