Note! Unlike the others, these ones are NOT edible nor should they be ingested! These potions are for anointing or bath magic.
None of these potions are made with the crystals in the water! I ALWAYS put my crystals around a jar or cup of water to charge over night. SOME OF THESE CRYSTALS SHOULD NEVER GO IN WATER!!! So please just place them around your jar of water over night, not in it.
• Philtre: Water-based, delicate ingredients
• Infusion: Water-based, delicate ingredients
• Decoction: For immediate ingestion, concentrated, sturdy ingredients, reduce to remove excess water
• Tincture: alcohol-based, keeps for up to a year, time needed for preparation, highly concentrated, dilute
• Vinegar: vinegar-based, masks ingredients, highly concentrated
• Syropp: ingredients preserved in sugar solution, very sweet
• Poultice: Chopped plant material, compress, can be infused with potions
• Formentation: clothes dipped in potion, compress
• Salve: Oil or fat-based, thick and creamy, for external application
• Elixir: alcohol-based, very pure
• Tisane: Hot water-based, herbal extract
• Macerate: cold water-based, plant infusion, requires up to 12 hours
• Essential oils: Diluted extracts
• Inhalation: vapor from a potion
Infusions work best for making tea from leaves and flowers as these plant parts give up their active constituents easily.
Allow the tea to steep for 10 to 20 minutes so the therapeutic properties can pass from the herb into the water.
To make an infused oil put dried herbs in the top of a double-boiler, cover with oil about an inch over the herb (olive works well for this because it has a fairly long shelf life), let simmer for 2 hours without letting it get too hot or boiling, a temp of 150 F is good. Strain the oil into a clean jar, date & label. Without any preservatives, infused oil will last about a year.
Decoction
Teas made from roots and twigs are most often brewed by decoction because it is more difficult to extract their medicinal properties any other way.Boil or simmer 1 to 2 teaspoons of the herb per cup of water for 10 to 20 minutes.
Poultice
A poultice is a paste of chopped, fresh (or dried and then remoistened) plant material which is applied directly to a wound or skin infection. It is held in place by a wet dressing covered by a bandage. Poultices are most often used to prevent infection and hasten healing.
To make a poultice, boil, steam, or pound the healing herb of your choice to release more medicinal compounds. Then shape the material into a small, coin-size wad which can then lie flat against the wound. Many herbalists recommend mixing 1 part herb with 3 parts water, alcohol, witch hazel or vinegar. Thicken with flour to make the poultice easier to handle and apply.
Tincture
Stuff dried herbs into a jar, add enough alcohol (usually vodka or everclear (Natural grain alcohol), depending on the strength needed for the particular herb) to amply cover the herbs, and screw the lid on. Allow the mixture to stand for about a week, shaking it occasionally. Then strain it, discard the plant material, and store the tincture in a bottle with a dropper lid. Label and date the bottle. Most tinctures have a shelf life of 2 years.
Maceration
To steep an herb in fat, such as done with salve and ointments. Best oils to use are almond and sesame. Warm one cup of oil over a low flame and place one-half ounce herbs wrapped in cheesecloth to soak. Continue until the herbs have lost their color and the oil is rich with their scent.
Wash
A tea or infusion meant only for external use. A mild form of a wash would be ¼ ounce of herb to one pint of boiling water, steeped until lukewarm, then applied. It would be good if you learned how to do all of these.
Ointment
2 oz solid fat -such as Crisco, coconut oil, cocoa butter or lanolin 5 oz herb infused olive or grape seed oil 2 oz herb infused water 1 tsp (approximately) beeswax -shave or grate before use 3-5 drops essential oil, if desired for fragrance or effect
Gently melt a solid fat, wax and oil over double boiler or carefully in microwave; use low heat and stir until blended. Remove from heat.
Put water into blender or mixer bowl and agitate. While water is spinning, slowly pour the oil, fat, wax mixture into the water. Continue mixing until emulsified. You may notice a distinct change of sound as the cream congeals. Remove cream, while still warm, into clean containers and leave open until completely cool. Label each jar with contents and date, be sure to note the date your herbal oil especially if it is much older than your cream. Store in a cool, dark place; should stay fresh for 6 months to a year. Sniff before using and look for mold after 6 months. If the oil and water separate, just stir before using.
Compress
~ Roots, Bark, Twigs & Leaves~
Make a compress by dipping a clean cloth in an herbal solution – an infusion, decoction, tincture, or herbal vinegar. You can hold a poultice in place with a compress, in which case it doubles as a bandage. or, apply the compress directly to the skin (also called a fomentation).

None of these potions are made with the crystals in the water! I ALWAYS put my crystals around a jar or cup of water to charge over night. SOME OF THESE CRYSTALS SHOULD NEVER GO IN WATER!!! So please just place them around your jar of water over night, not in it.
This
potion-ritual can be used when working to acquire a new home or residence. Do
not ingest. Keep the potion requests coming! This is a lot of fun for me! If
you’ve already submitted a request, worry not! I will get to them all!
Supplies Needed:
–
Boling crucible
–
Glass vial
–
Small mojo bag
–
Fireproof dish (optional)
–
Sieve
Ingredients
Needed:
–
A pint of water
–
A pinch of salt
–
A small stone from the desired
dwelling
–
A teaspoon of dirt from the dwelling
–
An old key that has touched the lock
of the dwelling.
–
A jade leaf
–
A grain of rice for each housemate
–
A silver coin
–
A feather from a bird of flight
–
A personal item for each housemate
(lock of hair, fingernail, drop of blood, or saliva)
Instructions
1. Bring the water to a boil.
2.
Contribute the salt.
3. Add the stone from your desired
dwelling.
4. Add the dirt from the dwelling.
5. Add the key
6.
Contribute the jade leaf.
7.
Add the silver coin.
8.
Contribute the rice.
9.
Add the feather.
10. Last,
add the personal item of each housemate.
Allow the brew to
boil and bubble while concentrating on your goal. When the concentration can no
longer be held in the mind’s eye, remove the brew from the fire and allow it to
cool. Once cool, filter the liquid through the sieve into the vial and remove
the stone, coin, and key and secure them in the mojo bag. Take the vial to the
dwelling and use the potion to anoint the threshold. Leave behind the mojo bag
with the stone, coin and key, taking care to hide it somewhere out of sight and
out of mind. Turn away and do not look back.
If you are moving out of state and visiting the dwelling to carry out this
potion-ritual isn’t possible, this working can still be carried out with ease.
Write the address of the desired dwelling on a slip of paper and burn it.
Contribute the ashes to the brew, saving a bit to rub into the key and the
stone. A small portion of ashes can be mixed into a measure of dirt from any
location and this used in place of dirt from your desired dwelling.
Analysis
The symbolism of
the above mentioned potion ingredients are pretty obvious. First, the salt is a
symbol of the earth which is manifestation and the ground on which we build our
shelters. The key, dirt, and stone are all links to the home that is sought.
The jade leaf is a common plant that is often kept in the home to encourage
luck. A silver coin is added to ensure financial requirements for the home are
satisfied. The grains of rice are added to keep each housemate from going
hungry and the personal items are added to tie the home to those that seek it.
