A MAGICK BREW

Merry Meet to All of You!

Hope you are all enjoying the sunshine, well at least until recently, lets hope it returns soon. :)

I know, lovely wheather makes you crave cold drinks more than anything, but I found this tea recipe I would like to share with you regardless.

It's called 'Magical Working Tea' and helps you with your preparation and entering the right mindset before undertaking, well, magickal work.

It is dead simple, just make an infusion out of:

2 teaspoons rosemary

1 teaspoon lavender

grated peel of 1 orange

let it infuse for 10 minutes and drink about an hour before your magickal workings.

Rosemary stimulates the brain while lavender relaxes you and orange is linked with solar energies, thus this tea can help putting yourself in the required mindset for your purposes.

(Recipe taken from: 'The Real Witches Kitchen' by Kate West, page 141; see:

So, even in the hopefully returning warm weather, the right cup of tea can still work wonders.

Enjoy a lovely summer and make the most of it outdoors, hopefully in the returning sunshine.

Sunny Blessings,

Ilona
