Blessing Simmer Pot Ritual for the Winter Season

Gather the following ingredients:

  • 3 star anise for protection and clarity
  • 1 tsp. chicory for positivity and cleansing
  • 1 tsp. nutmeg for good luck and prosperity
  • 6 lemon slices for happiness and longevity
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract for love and energy

Note: The amounts of each item can be adjusted depending on how fragrant you wish it to be. You can certainly use less if you’d like.

  1. Cleanse and setup your space as needed.
  2. Take a few deep breathes and clear your mind from outside noise as much as possible.
  3. Add the ingredients slowly, one at a time to the pot. Once they are all in, state the following: ‘May these gifts from the earth bring peace, balance, and happiness to our house and home this season.’
  4. Allow your ingredients to come to a boil and reduce to a simmer.
  5. Stir the pot clockwise while visualizing a happy, productive, and safe kitchen for the weeks to come. Continue this exercise until it feels right to finish.
  6. Once finished, recite the following: ‘Bring peace, love, and light with this blessed witches brew. This kitchen be warm the whole winter through.’
  7. Now use a strainer or cheese cloth to separate the water into a glass mason jar.
  8. Let the water cool then place the jar in your fridge (it will keep better for the duration of the season).
  9. Put the strained herbs and lemon slices into a gold pouch, tie it up, and place in the freezer. You may repeat the process when you feel it’s needed.

When performing this blessing feel free to add in some extra magical touches around your home, play some soothing music, light a blue candle for peace, or burn your favourite incense.

Summing up…
