Lavender Syrup!

I know there are a ton of recipes out there, but this one's mine. I put in a lot more lavender personally.

- 2 cups sugar

- 1 1/2 cup water (here's an opportunity to use moon water for extra energy. Full moon water can boost the lavender correspondences for psychic awareness and love, while water charged in phases leading up to the new moon can boost lavender's ability to banish/protect from depression and anxiety)

- 4 tablespoons lavender- Peace/anti-anxiety, happiness, love, sleep, psychic awareness/ability, creativity, protection from ill treatment.

- purple food coloring (optional)

Instructions:

🍲Ingredients + Correspondences📚

3 cups of Flour: for strenght and stability

2 cups of Oatmeal for kindness, wealth and health

Lemon zest of 4 Lemons: purification and healing

3 cups of Sugar to bring some sweetness into your life (state what you have in mind, darling)

2 cups of Water: the source of life, gratitud, abundance. Be grateful for your water while you're at it

1 cup of Butter for enlightment and joy

5 eggs: for manifesting your intentions and healing

1 1/2 tsp Baking powder

1 tsp Baking soda: they'll make sure your cake goes up.

1/2 tsp Salt for cleansing and protection

Vanilla to sprinkle some love in your life

Honey to connect with the divine and your intuition

A nice witchy chant or music you utterly adore that makes you feel like you have all the power in you (spoilers: you do!)

👣Steps (+ witchy inspo)🧙‍♀️

Pre-heat oven at 350°F/180°C. Butter the cake pan of your preference and add flour (or a parchment paper if you like to use it).

Pour the water in a little bowl with the oatmeal and set it aside (mind your intentions!).

Mix the dry ingredients. Start chanting or singing along those lyrics that you just love.

Pour the rest of the ingredients, and keep mixing and dancing. Note: picture those who'll eat the cake receiving the blessings you're stating.

Pour the mix in the cake pan, add some decor or a sigil if your heart wishes so. (My cake pan is 35cmx25cm)

Bless your cake and Put in the oven.

Now you'll have to wait till you can feel the Third Smell (about 40 mins). Then just to make sure, stick a knife in it, and if it comes out dry... Congrats!! You got yourself a nice witchy cake.

Final result: a beautiful slightly green-tinged yummy cake.

(I decorated after getting out of the oven with rosemary for protection+calmness and white sage for keeping the energies balanced)

This is my first time posting a witchy recipe, hope you like it, and if you give it a try, tell me how it went💕 I'd love to hear all about it.

Sending good wishes your way!🌸🌟

Drink chai for a quick abundance, luck and wealth spell ~ it contains cloves, cinnamon, nutmeg and allspice, the main ingredients in most abundance spells! Just add you intention while you stir (I stir with a cinnamon stick and leave that in too), you can even add in a manifestation while you drink it ☕

Bring in transformation, prosperity, and kick out the malicious.

Garlic: Protection, Warding, Banishing, Prosperity.

Olive Oil: Protection, abundance, spirituality.

Butter: Transformation, tenacity, spirituality, abundance.

Salt: (if your butter is not salted) Warding.

Parsley: Protection.

Rosemary: Protection, healing.

Basil: Abundance, protection, joy.

This is a recipe I have for DELICIOUS garlic butter, that carries a bit of a magic kick to it. While I personally do a garlic confit for this, you can substitute with garlic powder and it will be just as tasty (though the garlic confit is representative of softening situations and transformation).

Simmer garlic in olive oil, do this till it's soft and mashable. It will be easy to tell. By itself, this is spreadable on toasted bread.

Mix the mashed garlic with the butter and herbs. You can get a little creative and replace or remove herbs to your liking, it depends on your taste and needs.

The oil leftover from the confit can be used in cooking or in spellwork (baneful AND positive).

This lasts about four to five days in the fridge, so make your batches small (ignore this if using garlic powder). If it's frozen, it can last no more then six months.

Sometimes, we get down on ourselves. It happens to most of us, and when it does it’s nice to have a pick-me up. Self-love is one of the most important kinds of love--we need to take good care of ourselves emotionally, spiritually and physically in order to live our best lives. This little potion isn’t going to cure your self esteem or image issues overnight--or at all without work on your part. But it is a good start, and can facilitate the actions you need to reach your self love goals.

Make the making of this potion a self love ritual. Dress up in one of your favorite outfits before you make it--lingerie is nice, but so is something that just makes you feel secure and comfortable, like a good pair of sweatpants, a big fluffy robe or a big t-shirt! Hell, you can even put on a big fancy dress and do a full face of makeup if you like. Or do your skincare routine. Take a good long look in the mirror and pick out something you like about yourself. Write it down somewhere you can look at it before bed. Then, go and gather the following ingredients:

Self Love Potion Ingredients

Water (moon water would be a good addition!)

Rose bud tea (beauty, love)

Strawberries (love, happiness)

Apples (beauty, love)

Peaches (youth, happiness)

Basil or Mint (healing, banishes negativity)

Honey or Agave

Making Your Self Love Potion

Heat your water. Finely chop your strawberries, apples and peaches. Allow it to boil until the fruit is soft and has infused its essence into the water. Add the rose bud tea, and mint. Remove from heat and allow everything to steep for a while. Strain the fruit, flowers and herbs from the tea and pour it into your favorite cup. Sweeten to taste if needed (you added a lot of fruit, so it might be sweet enough!). Allow your self love potion to cool. You can even serve it over ice if you like.

Find somewhere comfy to sit and drink this--preferably before your potion is ready, or at least done cooling. Light a few candles--pink and white are good color choices, in whatever scent you find comforting that makes you feel luxurious. Open a few windows if you’re able. Take your potion, sit and close your eyes. Focus on those things you like about yourself, what you envisioned what you looked in the mirror. Envision your goals and your ideal self--but be realistic about it, and be kind to yourself. Drink, and continue to envision these things as you do. Continue doing so until your drink is finished. Relax as long as you want to, and take it easy on yourself. Doing this before bed is ideal, so you can go lounge in bed right afterwards.

Be kind and gentle to yourselves. Remember that where you are now on your journey is still progress, and one day soon you’ll be where you want to be.

One of my favourite traditions during the winter is rewatching all of the Harry Potter movies. I've been indulging in rereading the books as well and wanted to do a bit of Hogwarts-inspired magick. I've always found the idea of butterbeer interesting and there are many wonderful recipes online. Despite this, I'm not the biggest fan of cream soda, so here is a butterbeer tea potion. In the books, butterbeer is known for being a great way to lift spirits and bring joy. The sugar and butter in butterscotch soothe relationships, boost love, and bring sweetness, making it a cozy drink to share with friends. Like the books, adding the butterscotch liqueur will add a bit of boozy warmth to this tea, but it can be omitted if you'd like. I hope everyone will enjoy this potion, I'll be sure to include links for where you can find some ingredients.

.｡❅*⋆⍋*∞*.Ingredients ｡*∞*⍋⋆*❅｡

1 bag of butterscotch tea ( You can also make your own using butterscotch candy, black tea, cinnamon, and cocoa nibs.)

1 cup of milk ~ Fertility and abundance

1/2 tsp of butterscotch syrup

1/2 tsp of cinnamon ~ Love, passion, healing

1/2 tsp of vanilla ~ Happiness, Friendship, luck

1 tsp of butterscotch liqueur (optional)

Butterscotch topping for garnish

.｡❅*⋆⍋*∞*.Directions ｡*∞*⍋⋆*❅｡

Begin by steeping the tea bag in 1/4 a cup of hot water for 3-5 minutes.

In a small pot, on medium heat, combine the milk, cinnamon, and vanilla. Stir frequently to avoid burning until it reaches a light simmer.

Remove the tea bag and add the butterscotch liqueur.

In a frothing pitcher or bowl, add the milk and butterscotch syrup.

Using a frothing tool or whisk, froth the milk until light and foamy on top.

Before combining the milk and tea, garnish the rim of the glass with drizzles of the butterscotch topping.

Prosperity Milkshake recipe

I came up with this recipe today and I thought I should share it! It's a simple kitchen spell for prosperity and attracting money. I suggest making it in the morning, but you can make it whenever you need a little prosperity in your life!🍨✨

Ingredients:

chocolate/chocolate swirl ice cream

chocolate nesquik

a sprinkle of ginger

a pinch of parsley

a dash of cinnamon

I have reverse engineered the ingredient list I remember off their white mocha bottles from when I worked there, and made it about ten times better, and it is mad easy to make at home.

YOU'RE GONNA WANT:

A bar of good quality white chocolate; Ghirardelli's baking bars are fantastic for this. Look for something that's mostly cocoa butter.

About 3-4 tablespoons of sweetened condensed milk

About a tablespoon of heavy cream

About a tablespoon of boiling water

A dash of salt

Break the white chocolate up and put it into a small microwave-safe container. Microwave it on high for 30 second intervals, stirring between each one, until it's good and melted.

Drop 3 or 4 tablespoons of sweetened condensed milk in there. It's not an exact measurement because let's be honest, that stuff's hard to measure.

Start mixing.

It will immediately seize into a solid mass and you'll think I'm fucking with you after all. This is normal. Chocolate is an incredibly weird emulsion and this is just how the chocolate do when it sees a water molecule! Stir until it's at least a uniform solid mass, and then add a tablespoon of boiling water. The hotter the better.

After a little bit it'll unseize and abruptly turn smooth again. If it doesn't, hit it with another teaspoon of boiling water and it will.

Add that tablespoon of heavy cream and mix in. You can even make it two tablespoons if you want. I'm not the boss of you.

Add a dash of salt to taste. I'm a two-dash kinda person myself, because it counters how much sugar is in it. Which is a lot.

And boom. That's it. You now have white mocha sauce comparable to any coffee chain's brand except actually it's way better. Store it covered in the fridge, it'll keep a while but it's probably best to use it within the week since it's got fresh dairy ingredients.

Can it be made vegan? Probably but you'd have to find white chocolate with no dairy additives to start with, and then sweetened condensed non-dairy milk if that exists, and probably use coconut cream, and I dunno I haven't tried at all so you're on your own for that if you want to experiment.

Homemade Lavender Syrup

1 cup granulated sugar

1 cup filtered water

- Mix together all ingredients in a pot and boil until all sugar is dissolved.

- Remove from heat and steep for 10 minutes.

- Transfer to an air tight container, let cool and keep in fridge for up to 7 days

Perfect for tea, coffee, lattes, oatmeal, or anything else for which you’d like to use it! Lavender is used for bringing peace and calmness, healing, meditation, and protection from negative energy. It also tastes absolutely incredible.

Are you or a loved one among the many people who have difficulty sleeping? This tea recipe of mine may help!

-ingredients-

• 1 part Chamomile

• 1 part Mugwort

• 2 parts Lemon Balm

As always magical correspondences under the cut

Because I love food and I'm also cheap. This is basically just my regular easy chicken soup recipe but with the magical associations included. It'll feed you for days.

The Long (But Tastier) Way

What You'll Need:

One of those discount whole chickens from the grocery store (my boyfriend calls it a "used chicken")

Whatever veggies in your kitchen are starting to look sad and need to be used before they go bad (I recommend having carrots and celery in that mix tho)

Some extra celery/carrots for the final product (can come from the Sads if you need... pick the healthiest-looking parts.)

Pasta of your choice (I like penne)

A stockpot and strainer (another big pot should work too, but stockpots are best for holding everything/making the most at once.)

Salt, pepper, preferably dill as well + whatever other seasonings you want.

What to Do:

Take your used chicken, strip all of the meat from it, and put the meat aside. Put the carcass in the pot.

Add all of your sad vegetables to the pot. No need to be fancy with it, no need to peel anything. Shop an old onion into 4ths and add it skins and all. Leaves can stay on any celery. Chuck in some garlic, why not. I've added an old sweet potato before. Leeks. Rosemary. Whatever. Go be free.

Add some salt + pepper, cover the entire thing with water, bring it to a boil and then immediately turn the heat to low. Cover it most of the way.

Go do something else. Forget about it for at least four hours. If you want, you can occasionally go up to it and skim any foam off. Everything is steeping and blending, so the longer it goes the better it gets. (Remember the water will cook down though, so don't leave it forever.)

Cook your pasta al dente and set it aside at some point.

Once you're ready, strain the broth into another vessel and discard your sad broth vegetables. Thank them for their service.

Put the broth back in the empty stockpot and bring to a boil. Chop your happy vegetables to whatever size you want to eat them at. Add any vegetables like chopped carrots that need to cook longer than other veggies. After a few minutes add the rest. Once everything is at a good level of This Won't Feel Weird to Eat, put it on way low again!

Add everything else. That means salt, pepper, dill (I like dill. Add too much dill.) seasoning powders, chicken meat, and cooked pasta. Steep it for a little so the broth flavor can soak in, but you don't have to do it for as long as before.

EAT IT! You have soup now! Yay! Eat a bowl now and save the rest for later. It'll last you a while. (Pasta will get bigger/softer over time but that's fine, it's still good.)

Faster Broth

Boil some water. Add chicken bouillon cubes, salt, pepper, dill/whatever seasonings, and a tiny splash of oil. The oil helps it look/feel more authentic without needing to steep the chicken carcass.

For even faster broth, you can even use boxed chicken stock and skip the bouillon. I find chicken broth tastes kinda different and gross, but it'll work in a pinch and you might not mind it as much as me.

Magical Associations

Naturally, whatever unique vegetables you add will have their own correspondences, so I'll just list the recommended base ingredients:

Chicken: Lasting love, household harmony, abundance, luck, prosperity and general well-being

Celery: Lust, mental/psychic abilities, clear-headedness/focus (especially for decision making)

Carrot: Lust again, abundance, creativity and psychic awareness

Dill: Luck, money/employment, protection, knowledge and decision making.

Chicken Soup Itself: Health and vitality is the big one (probably obviously.) It's basically folk penicillin. I think it also carries associations with love (especially familial) and household harmony for exactly this reason. Based on the other associations, I could also see it being good for helping make important decisions with a sound mind.
