Abrus and Ormosia Seeds Questions and Answers

Hi All!

Okay, a magical friend showed me necklace she had of what she called "peonia" or "peony seeds". I thought they looked a lot like Abrus seeds -- did some poking on the Lucky W Archive and saw they kind of look similar, but not really sure.

Are Abrus seeds and Peonia seeds the same thing? Or different? And well, if they are different, are they both lucky?

Curious about curios again. Thanks!

Peonia is a misleading Caribbean and South American name for Ormosia seeds, which resemble but are not the same as Abrus seeds. See "Hoodoo Herb and Root Magic." These plants are not related to Peony.
