St. John's Wort

Today is St. John's Day (celebrating his birthday).

So I burned St. John's Wort picked fresh from the garden.

I am having trouble finding any decent online references for the beneficial effects but the following link refers to banishing evil:

I have read somewhere that it was supposed to bring good luck in the coming year but I cannot find that reference now.

Beneficial effects? On the contrary, I was under the impression that inhaling smoke is generally bad for your health.
