Whether you need to call in calm energy, protection, or love, we’ve got you covered. These recipes and intentions/spells are great addition for your home in the colder months.
WHERE TO START
Begin your practice by setting an intention and collecting your water. Consider your choice of water and the energy in the herbs, or extracts, and start with a strong foundation for your spell. Simmer pots incorporate the four elements: air (within the mind, thoughts or ideas), water (emotions and creativity), fire (cleansing and ignites passion), and earth (grounding and supportive), that work to bring balance and harmony. Prepare your herbs and gather your tools. You will need a pot or cauldron, and any kitchen tools that you will need to muddle your herbs to release the extracts.
CRAFTING YOUR OWN BREW
1. Fill a pot or cauldron with water.
2. Add herbs, spices, and fruits. *Note: you may include extracts.
3. Simmer on low to medium heat for two to four hours, adding water as needed. *Note: setting the temperature to a lower heat avoids burning the ingredients.
4. Stir occasionally, visualizing your desired manifestation.
