CUCUMBER OINTMENT
Used as a healing and cleansing cream.

1 lb cucumber
3¼ oz pure lard
2¼ oz veal suet


Grate the washed cucumbers into a pulp or use a blender or food processer.
Strain the juice out and save.
Cut the suet into small pieces and heat over a water bath till the fat is melted out from the membrane.
Add the lard.
When melted, strain through the muslin into a crock or jar capable of holding upto 1 quart.
Stir until it begins to thicken.
Add 1/3 of the juice.
Beat with a spatula till the odor has been wholly extracted.
Put into jar and cover.
Heat in a water bath till the fatty matter separates from the juice.
Strain off the green coagulum floating on the surface.
Put jar in a cool place to solidify.
The crude ointment is then separated from the water liquid on which it floats, is melted and strained and then placed in glass jars which must be kept sealed.
Add a layer of rosewater on the surface to help preserve it. Rosewater may also be added to make this preparation creamy and white

Sleepytime Balm Formula

Remember this easy-to-make formula when you have overly-excited children on your hands–or when you could use a good night’s rest yourself!

 INGREDIENTS

1/4 cup all-vegetable shortening, at room temperature
10 drops essential oil of orange
2 drops essential oil of ylang-ylang
1 drop essential oil of vanilla (optional)

1. Combine all ingredients in a small bowl and whip together, using a small spatula or whisk.

2. Apply a dab of balm to your temples after cleansing your face and just prior to bedtime. May be used daily, if desired.

3. Store in a glass jar in a cool, dry place for up to three or four months.

After The Sunburn Salve

Items Needed:

16 oz Aloe Vera Gel
1 oz Jojoba Oil
20-30 Drops Essential Oil of Lavender

Preparation:

Blend well, apply liberally to any sunburn.

I have also found this works well on most skin irritations, i.e. poison ivy,
shaving irritation. It is a wonderful skin healer. I also recommend adding
Tea Tree Oil for its antibacterial properties- 15-20 drops for this amount
will do, and/or Orange or Grapefruit for their relaxing properties, 10 drops.

oil, and say:

"Candle light, warm and bright,
Ignite the flames of love tonight.
Let my soul mate's love
Burn strong for me.
This is my will, so mote it be!"

After the love potion boils for three minutes, remove the cauldron from the fire and allow it to cool. Strain the cooled liquid through a clean cheesecloth into a cup. Add a bit of honey to sweeten the potion, and then drink it.  The best times to prepare the Witch's Love Potion, as with all love  potions and love spells, are on Fridays, Saint Agnes's Eve (The night of January 20), Saint Valentine's Day (February 14), any night of the waxing moon, and whenever the moon is in the Venus-ruled signs of Taurus or Libra. (Don't direct it or it's your karma)

cauldron on the 9th hour of the 9th day of the 9th month of they year. Stir the potion 9 times with a wooden spoon, each time recite the following magickal incantation:

"Let the one who drinks this wine
Shower me with love divine
Sweet Love Potion Number Nine
Make his/her love forever mine"

Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for 9
minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool. Blow 9 times upon the potion; bless it in the names of nine goddesses. Strain through cheesecloth (or coffee filter--it is the 90's thank you). Store in a
clean container and refrigerate until you are ready to serve it to the one from whom you desire
love and affection. Do not allow anyone other than your beloved look at, touch or drink the love

Calendula Salve

Calendula salve is easy to make, but it requires advance planning because you first need to infuse the calendula flowers in oil and let them steep for at least one week.

1�? cup dried calendula flowers
1�? cup extra-virgin olive oil
1�? cup grated beeswax
40 drops lavender essential oil

To make the infused oil, put calendula flowers into a pint-size canning jar. Add the olive oil and stir well. Cover the jar with a lid and place the jar in a sunny window. When the oil turns a deep golden yellow (this generally takes one to two weeks), strain the oil through several layers of cheesecloth to remove the flowers.

To make calendula salve, combine the calendula oil with the grated beeswax in a small, heavy saucepan. Heat gently until the beeswax is melted. Add lavender essential oil. Pour the mixture into wide-mouth glass jars. Let the salve cool, and cover with a lid. When stored in a cool, dark place, calendula salve will stay fresh for approximately one year.
