Day 10 - Pairing Crystals With Candle Magic

I love crystals, and I always have. My father and I used to have a huge collection together and we still do to this day. Over this past week I've been learning a lot more about crystal magic. Now that I'm a little more knowledgeable on the subject I can start using it with other kinds of magic like candles. As I've mentioned previously, crystals can amplify energies. Candle magic is one of the topics I have a lot of experience with. Candle magic channels the energy of fire towards your desired intent. They symbolize transformation, life, and spirit. I've learned recently that when you use crystals and candles together can amplify the intent more so then it could alone.

Kitchen Witch Recipe: Lavender-Infused Honey

This is a yummy little recipe that incorporates two of my favorite things: lavender and honey (as the title of this post suggests).

From a culinary viewpoint: it's so good drizzled over yogurt or freshly baked bread. Add it to your tea for a soothing sweetener (I'm especially fond of adding it to bedtime teas).

From a witchy viewpoint: Both lavender and honey are associated with love magic. Honey always felt more of a warmer sort of love energy, whereas lavender is a calmer love. Together, they're a bit like a warm, magical hug: soothing, secure, peaceful, and happy.

Ingredients

Raw honey

Food-grade lavender dried lavender buds

Instructions

Prepare your jar and lid.

Your ratio should be 1 part lavender to 4 parts, so fill your container about 1/4 of the way with lavender buds.

Fill the jar with honey. Use a spoon to give it a good swirl and incorporate the lavender.

Tighten your lid and leave the jar in a cool, dark place for about Teo weeks.

Once the time is up, strain your honey through a fine mesh strainer. Return the filtered honey to your jar and enjoy
