Spell to calm anxiety down

This spell was made to be super quick and simple, I hope it helps people the same way it helps me.

You’ll need one lemon, a way to heat the juice, and a white candle

• Press 1 lemon and heat the juice. • Place the candle in front of you and light it. Breathe in and out and focus on your anxiety. • Hold your drink before your eyes and concentrate on pouring your energy in it. (Optional) Say: “I hereby banish anxiety from my body and mind for these are mine and no one else’s.” • Drink the hot lemon juice. • Simply watch the candle burn for a few seconds, visualize it burning your anxiety away, then blow the candle.

This also works for emotional shocks.

Soups and Broths in Magick

I am rather new to the witch community on tumblr but I have been interested in witchcraft for years. I have come upon a reoccurring thing, many of my friends I wish to magically aid through teas and herbal brews, do not like the taste of tea. I have found that mixing herbal blends or herbs representing what you wish to occur into soups and broths work just as well! In fact if you choose the right soup you can get sometimes better results I have found. Soup mimics tea by being easily drank and can be served warm and hot, which I find very comforting.

First it is important to choose a soup or broth that goes well taste wise with the herbs you wish to use. You want it to taste pleasant for yourself or the one you are providing it to. Though, try to find a soup or stock or broth that corresponds with what you wish to achieve with the herbs to further strengthen and increase the outcome you wish. 

A short list of correspondences:

Chicken Broth/Stock: Uncrossing, new growth, fertility, sacrifice, New beginnings, rebirth

Turkey Broth/Stock: Close connections to Earth, generosity, inspiration, bounty, blessings

Beef Broth/Stock: New beginnings, femininity/female power, fertility, strength, balance

Pork Broth/Stock or Bacon: Intelligence, good luck, prosperity, curiousity, discovering new things

Fish Broth/Stock: Close connections to Water, health, improving oneself, the unconcious mind, awareness, fertility, good luck, wishes, change

Shellfish/Clam/Mussel Broth/Stock/Soup/Chowder: Protection, stopping lies/gossip/rumors, removal or treatment of stubbornness, honesty, truth, close connections to both Water and Earth, living a natural life

Shrimp Broth/Stock: love, abundance, fertility, trying new things, moving forward

Cheese base/Milk base soup/Chowder: Beauty, femininity, love, self-love, purification, rebirth

Tomato Soup: Protection, prosperity, love, uncrossing, femininity, romance and passion, negation of negativity and evil

Pumpkin Soup: Healing, prosperity, love, protection, granting wishes

Squash Soup: Psychic awareness, spiritual enlightenment

Corn Chowder: connections to the sun, luck, prosperity, abundance

Onion Soup: protection, keep evil away, healing, banishing, stability, exorcism, money, lust, and ends bad habits

Pea Soup: Kindness, connections with Air

Mushroom Soup: psychic enhancement, connections to Earth, longevity, strength, immortality

Curry/Curry Soups: banishing, healing, prosperity, protection from negativity

Soups with Noodles: Longevity, uncrossing

Soups with Rice: prosperity, blessing, money and wealth, security, good fortune to come

Soups with Barley: Love, Healing, Protection Hopefully this will be helpful for any witches who are not very big fans of the taste of teas or for anyone else for that matter. I would love to hear or see any other suggestions for tea replacements or other soups that could be used. This came straight out of my Grimoire and I hope to add more of it to this site soon. Blessed be everyone!

ANGEL’S SWEET HOT CAKES

Now this is a recipe I promised myself I would make my kids when and if I had them. I actually have a folder on my phone labeled “Recipes to make my future children”. You know those hot recipes that your parents used to make for you when you were little before they got consumed by their work.

I never really had that growing up, so I always made a promise to myself if I were to have kids….I would wake up early just to make them a big breakfast, and make sure they knew they were loved.

Anyways! Here is a recipe for some delicious hot cakes! Great with butter and maple syrup. To Serve hot.

Ingredients:

2 cups flour

4 tbsp melted butter

1 cup buttermilk

2 large eggs

1/3 cup sugar

A dash of vanilla extract

1 tsp baking powder

1/8 tsp baking soda

Butter and syrup to serve

Directions:

In a medium sized bowl, mix together your dry ingredients. Pour in your melted butter, buttermilk, and vanilla. Mix clockwise with a wooden spoon to promote good luck. Once everything is thoroughly mixed, beat your eggs and add them into the mix. You’ll want to mix the batter until it is smooth. This should take around 3 minutes or a quick play of La Vie En Rose by Edith Piaf. 

If it is too thick for your liking, add some more milk to thin it out, and if it is too thin for your liking add in more flour.

Scoop about 1/3 cup of mixture (That’s about 3 oz) and pour into a hot pan, coated with melted butter or oil. Cook your pancakes on medium heat for about 1-2 minutes on each side or until done.

Serve fresh and hot, drizzled with maple syrup or honey, and with dripping butter melting from the top.

Enjoy, and remember…

“La vie est une fleur dont l’amour est le miel.” -Victor Hugo

~ Life is a flower, and love is it’s honey

Can you tell I’m studying french again? I’m trying to be more fluent, so if I made a mistake feel free to correct me!

Its such a rip off that flowers don’t taste good

MAGICK APPLE THREE CHEESE SOUP FOR FALL

This soup, is actually pretty tasty, so don’t be scared off by the title. Apple and cheese are really good together. And this recipe, from my kitchen to yours, is infused in magick!

Ingredients:

Olive Oil

1 cup apple cider ~ love, comfort, divine energy, healing, folk lore cure all

2 tbsp brown sugar ~ Love, comfort

1 large granny smith apple ~ revitalize, love, healing

 1 large onion, diced ~ warding, protection

1 1/3 cup freshly shredded cheddar

Sprig of thyme ~ symbol of Venus, beauty, courage, fairy communications, protection, psychic abilities

Ground garden sage (Note- Do NOT use white sage as it is sacred to the indigenous and should be saved for native practices) ~ clarity, protection, grounding, cleansing, wisdom, nightmare relief

Salt and pepper ~ Warding, cleansing, protection

½ cup gouda cheese

4 oz bree cheese

¾ cup half and half

3 cups broth of choice

Flour to thicken it

8 oz beer (Optional)

To prep: Cook your apple slices till soft, then purée them with a stick blender. Add a big pot to the stove, add oil to heat up on medium heat.

Cooking the soup: Add diced onions, pureed apple, and cook on medium heat for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add in broth, apple cider, seasonings, and beer (optional) into the pot and stir. You’ll want to bring this to a boil, and then turn down to simmer for an additional 12 minutes. 

Stir in your half and half and flour to thicken, along with your brown sugar. Cook this enough for the alcohol to boil off if serving people under 21 years of age or if you don’t want alcoholic soup at that matter. Cook for another 15 minutes stirring on a low medium heat.

Now stir in the cheese until it has melted in nicely in the soup, remember you can always add more things to you’ll liking. 

Authors Notes: Beer can be substituted for more broth, stir clock-wise for a more effective outcome. You can also substitute beer for one of you other potions, or edible elixirs. Pecans pair well with this, along with walnuts. You add bacon, or even dip apple slices into the soup.

Blessed be~

Yule-Mothers Night Blót

I put this ritual together from various sources-I can’t claim all the wording myself only the final form of the ritual. This was used for my kindreds the first Mother’s night. Because of our eclectic group, we chose not to only focus on Frigg, and instead included many mothers. As offerings, each of the members that wished to partake creates a Poppet from straw in the shape of a woman, which was burned at the end of the ritual.

Hallowing-

To be done before the arrival of guests- it is not essential that there be witnesses{this was done to cut down on time, during the cold winter}

Godi holds the ceremonial hammer and opens the circle with the traditional blessing:

In the Elhaz position standing facing North the Godi speaks:

Hammer to the North, hold and hallow this holy stead.

Hail Odin and the Northern forces

Godi faces East and speaks:

Hammer to the East, hold and hallow this holy stead.

Hail Freyr and the Eastern forces

Godi faces South and speaks:

Hammer to the South, hold and hallow this holy stead.

Hail Balder and the Southern forces

Godi faces West and speaks:

Hammer to the West, hold and hallow this holy stead.

Hail Thor and the Western forces

Hammer above and Below me Hold and hallow this holy stead

Hail the Aesir and Vanir, the Ancestors and the wights of the land

Sacred Fire

Loki.

Pine-fire.

Through the power of my love for you, I ask that you kindle the flame of this sacred fire.

As you have you have kindled one in me.

As we honor this evening our mothers, I ask for the comfort of the hearth for my kin.

May they know your gifts, as the gods have done

***

{godi speaks}

Welcome, to the Wolves of the North Mother’s night Blót. I hope the evening finds you well and warm. Tonight, the longest night of the year, we come together in this circle to praise the many mothers in our lives.

Motherhood is a sacred charge, AVAILABLE, to every woman.

Whether conceived through coitus, or artificial insemination.

Through natural birth, or C-Section.

Born of the blood, or adopted.

How a woman becomes a mother varies, but what never changes is her love and her place as a guardian and teacher of the next generation. Like Skuld of the Norns and all mother Frigg, every mother is a safeguard of the future. Let us honor them.

Invocation

The Godi faces the altar, holding high with both hands a horn of mead and recites:

I call to the Mothers of the Aesir!

Frigg, Sif, Sigyn and Nana

To the Vanir!

Freyja and Nerthus

To the Jötnar

Laufey, Jörd, Jarnsaxa, And Rán

To the Disir-Ancestors of our families-living and passed on

Be with us this winter solstice

Mothers of our people! You are manifest in the promise of the sleeping seeds and waiting buds; you give life to forest, field, and family!

We praise you and seek your blessing on us and call for your protection in our time of need.

Ancient Disir of our families we call upon you this night as we give praise and sing of your deeds. Watch over us on the longest night of the year as we wait for the lady Sol to warm us once again.

Meditation

{insert name/Gothi} will now lead us in a mediation; hold your poppet and reflect on your Disir, your ancestors and ancient mothers. Reflect on your living mothers and most of all your respect and love for them and theirs for you.

Hailing

We will now commence with a Sumbel, a little different than usual. In the first round I invite each of you to hail a goddess, Round two you may hail one of your Disir and on the third round a living mother of your family. At any point you may offer your poppet to whomever you would And As You cast it to the fire, reflect, feel their love for you. And give it in return. If you wish to pass on a round simply pass the horn to the person next to you.

Gythas example - Hail to Laufey, also called Nal, the Needle and weary Mother of Loki.

*poppet is offered to the fire*

Closing

Spirits of the nine realms we thank you for your presence here in this circle. We ask for your blessing and while you depart to your noble realm we bid you hail and farewell. I hereby release any Spirits that may have been imprisoned by this ceremony. Depart now in peace to your abodes and habitations. The blót is now ended, let the merriment begin.

its fucking dember.
