After a long winter, March is a good time to work a spell that will renew your health.
As folk wisdom says:
Eat leeks in March and garlic in May;
And all the year after physicians may play.
Peel three potatoes and place them on a green cloth on your kitchen table.
Consider three things you can do to improve your health. Carve on each potato symbols or words regarding your intention.
Make a potato leek soup with your magical potatoes.
Decorate the table in colors of green and white and a bouquet of daffodils.
