ว่านมงคลชัย
Wan Mongkhon Chai
Auspicious Victory Waan
Ritual purpose
Victory, auspicious success, deterrence/avoidance of enemies or hostile forces.
Botanical
Not identified to genus/species. Important: do not collapse this entry into ว่านไชยมงคล/ว่านชัยมงคล merely because the words reverse — those are an unrelated Crinum/Amaryllidaceae-type ornamental in other sources.
Origin / legend
No origin legend; available evidence is only the auspicious-victory name and a short occult-use gloss.
Consecration method (ปลุกเสก)
No specific consecration method found — no pluksek, timing, placement, carving, wearing, or named lineage.
Application
Not specified; appears as a named 108-waan auspicious plant without a stated handling method.
Taboos / restrictions (ข้อห้าม)
- None found.
Naming-neighbor confusion with ว่านไชยมงคล/ว่านชัยมงคล — not the same plant per available sources. Forum search independently confirms this confusion risk: exact-name searches on Pantip and Dhammajak drifted heavily into unrelated "ช้างต้นมงคลชัย" (King Naresuan's elephant) and Buddhist-merit material rather than the herb, and no dedicated practitioner thread or katha was found anywhere.
