The Sanguin Chalis Inn

Kitchen Witch Purification Spell

No time to cast a circle and perform a long purification ritual? No problem!

Into a large enamel saucepan, add:

two minced large onions, five minced cloves of garlic,

two tablespoons dried rosemary,

two sliced lemons, and two tablespoons of crushed black

peppercorns.

Cover with three quarts of water and bring to a rolling boil. Let the steam permeate the house, carry the pan carefully through the house into each room so that the steam can filter into every nook and cranny. When this is finished, open the windows and let the wind blow through to take away the last remnants of day-to-day tension and stress.

To Safeguard the Cook and Kitchen

Aloe has long been considered a magical/medicinal plant. Grow one in your

kitchen, or as near your kitchen as you can, to safeguard you from nasty

kitchen

accidents such as cuts and burns. Dab some aloe gel on your major kitchen

appliances, tools, doors and windows to safeguard them as well.

Garlic is well known for its protective qualities. Place a bulb of garlic on

your kitchen window, or hang a rope of garlic in your kitchen. Do not ever

use these for food--remember, they are there collecting negative energy.

Periodically, remove the garlic and bury in the earth. Remember to thank the

garlic

and the earth for their service to you.

A Kitchen Witch Bottle

A Kitchen Witch Bottle will protect your food from contamination or burning.

There are many ways of constructing these, but I like to put three needles,

three pins and three iron nails into a jar filled with salt. Seal it tightly

and shake it vigorously nine times. Place three dabs of red wax along the

seal. While you're constructing your Kitchen Witch Bottle, visualize your

kitchen as a peaceful, safe place, full of delicious aromas, and savory

food.

Place your Kitchen Witch Bottle on a top shelf of your cupboard where it

will not be disturbed.

New Pot Blessing

To bless a new pot and promote a healthy growth of plants therein, light your favorite incense. Draw a pentagram on the inside and outside bottom of the pot with a wooden spoon, saying: Blessings of earth for abundance. Pass the pot through the incense, saying: Blessings of air for fragrance. Turn on the burner of your stove and place the pot on the flame carefully, saying: Blessings of fire for purity in preparation. Stir in a little water, saying: Blessings of water for love. Prepare a favorite food and share it.by Cerridwen Iris Shea

Cooking for Prosperity Spell

To promote prosperity from the kitchen, keep a good countenance whenever you cook food and transfer good wishes to the food. Your stove is the sacred hearth. Your wooden spoon is a magical wand. Be careful never to cook in anger. Always stir the pot with a clockwise motion, and wish health, wealth, and joy upon all will will eat the food. You may say this from time to time as you cook:

The gods do bless you, when you give with love.

This is the greatest spell, which encompasses all
