Recipe : Prosperity Potatoes!

If you have a big day ahead, maybe a test, a job interview, or just need some extra good luck, this is the perfect healthy lunch or dinner recipe!

Here is the microwave version for when you’re low on energy and can’t be bothered to cook for very long. If you’re low on spoons or energy don’t bother cooking the other ingredients, they’ll be great fresh as well. If you’re vegan, just substitute or leave out the cheese.

Tools:

✨ Yellow, White or Green Candle ✨ Gems: Aventurine, Tiger’s Eye and Clear Quartz ✨ a Sigil for Prosperity ✨ Sharp Kitchen Knife ✨ a Pan ✨ Kitchen Towel (the paper kind) ✨ A Microwave and a stovetop

🌿

Start by Cleansing your kitchen in whichever way you see fit, burn some incense, spray a Cleansing Mist or cleanse with Sage.

When the energy is clean, light your candle on your workspace and arrange your gemstones around it. You are now ready to begin.

🌿

Rinse and dry your Potatoes and set them on your chopping board. Using the knife, carve your Prosperity Sigil into each one. If you don’t have a sigil or don’t work with sigils, try a star, heart or a shape that you associate with good luck.

Wrap both the potatoes separately in the paper kitchen towel, and depending on your microwave, pop them in separately (one at a time) for about 6minutes on high power each.

While your Potatoes are baking, pour some oil (olive, sunflower, canola or coconut, I prefer olive) into your pan in your sigil or shape and heat.

Slice the mushrooms, garlic, baby tomatoes and olives, not forgetting to take the pits out.

Chuck them all in the pan, sprinkle some thyme and rosemary and cook them thoroughly.

When both your Potatoes have baked, pop them out of their paper towels and slice them in the “hedgehog” style. (Crisscross still in their skins)

Cover with salt and more rosemary and thyme, break the feta cheese and sprinkle on. Heap on your pan cooked mushrooms, garlic, olives and tomatoes. Add the fresh basil leaves on top and Voila!

✨

While you’re eating, meditate on the protection and prosperity Properties of the ingredients you used.

⭐️NocturneTears🌙

[to any deity in particular]: Hi. I’ve brought shitty alcohol, two electric candles, a chocolate bar, my many issues, and an undying love for you. Can you help me un-fuck myself?

[deity]: sighs deeply

A tarot spread commissioned by @beetlepool​ during @technocoven​, for helping them find the source of their stress and how to achieve inner calm.

They asked:

“How can you achieve calm and stability only comparable to the biggest fish in the ocean?” 

And as a Marine Biologist, I was super hyped by the request and had a lot of fun with this spread! Thanks again, and welcome to your witch-y journey!

On Kitchen Magic

There are a lot of misconceptions about kitchen magic on here. 

(It’s nobodies fault this is how social systems work)

I’d like to clarify somethings out of my years working professionally and decades of cooking experience and the effect it has on people and lives in general.

The magic isn’t in the intention, or correspondences, or the direction your stir, or sigils and designs you draw into dough, or the herbs you grew in your window.

The magic is in the cooking.

Want to be an amazing practitioner? Want to get to the level where you can wield real power with it like other forms of craft? Practice Cooking.

Forget everything about magic and learn:

1. Knife skills- your knife should become an extension of yourself. Practice different techniques. Supreme, Brunoise, Chiffonade, etc. Your knife is more than a wand it’s also a weapon. There’s something incredibly grounding about it.

2. Mise en Place- Just like with ceremonial work- everything in its place. Make sure you’re keeping your work space clean as you go. Prepare things ahead of time like- peeling & blanching veg, prepping meat, anything you can ahead of time. When everything has a place nothing can slow you down or get lost.

3. Food Knowledge- Sure you know basil is good for attracting wealth but what color does it turn water when its boiled? How to keep it from bruising while making pesto? How long it takes to blanch? What species do you buy at the market and how does it differ in flavor from others? Just an example. You need to know everything about everything. A chef never stops learning. Learn how to eyeball measurements. Start baking by weight. Make something from every country. Make old old old ancient recipes. Ferment! Never! Stop! Learning!

4. Cook- You can’t just read. or watch. You need to apply yourself in the kitchen.

Get yourself a good chef’s knife if you dont have one, a solid cutting board, a decent saute pan, a pot made of non-reactive metal, tongs, and a plating spoon.

Do not pay more than like 5 dollars for a plating spoon. These are all you’re really gonna need to make just about anything. Certain things you’ll acquire when you take interest in specific things (say candy thermometer, silicone brush, uhh, baking pans, all sorts of things) but you don’t need a lot to start with at all.

Your fuck ups will teach you something and might actually be your best creations. Do not ever be afraid to make something even if you think you’ll fail.

5. Passionate and Getting Good?- DO NOT GO TO COOKING SCHOOL

Cooking school is a scam unless this is something you know you want to do for life. I cook professionally and even I don’t want to cook for life this business isn’t cut out for everyone and that’s okay. Go stage at a restaurant looking for work. TONS of restaurants hire people with no experience because they want to teach. I’ve quit positions because i’ve been over qualified thats how bad they want to teach sometimes. Seriously! Go learn from real chefs who are in the shit everyday. You’ll learn far more this way, you’ll get paid for doing it, and you’ll start building your cooking resume up.

This is obv an optional step but if you really wanna hone your skill and love cooking I just gotta beg you dont waste your money on cooking school.

My most successful peers never went or dropped out. Everyone who did go and is still actually cooking works middle management and hates their life.

In conclusion- Until your technique is second nature your magic will be weak.

Start worrying about the flips, tricks, correspondence n glitz after.

Obviously I’ve got the teaching bug myself and I’d love to continue to share industry tips some secrets. Maybe even teach some classes.

You don’t need a lot to get started but it’s an overwhelming field to jump into just like anything else. Consider this a 101.

Keep your nails short and clean.

Keep your hair up.

Wear a clean apron.

Wash your hands on entrance.

Lammas - a festival to mark the annual wheat harvest, and is the first harvest festival of the year

So earlier I made a post about doing a video tutorial on creating your own sculpture of your diety well.... I'm going to being doing it and making it friendly to those in our community who aren't out in the open about their practice. It's going to take a little bit for some of the supplies to come in but it's happening.

Really excited about this.

I'm going to be doing a goddess for the video.

Reblog and let me know who your most interested in seeing created. I'll do sketches of the top 3 and then vote again on which one of those will be the final choice.

The oldest worship of the world was of the sun and moon, of trees, wells, and the serpent that gave wisdom. Trees were the symbol of knowledge, and the dance round the May-bush is part of the ancient ophite ritual. The Baila also, or waltz, is associated with Baal worship, where the two circling motions are combined; the revolution of the planet on its own axis, and also round the Sun.
