Cornflower petals also make a wonderful mystical blue-colored handmade ink - which certainly has more magickal properties than store-bought for use in hand-worked spell books, etc. To make an ink out of the flowers, pick enough to fill a coffee cup, packed moderately. Using a non-metal container, boil 2 cups of water and drop the flowers in. Boil until the water becomes a beautiful blue and has evaporated down to about enough to fill a small jar, such as a baby food jar - do pick a jar that comes with a tight-fitting lid, of course. Using a strainer, strain the liquid into the jar. Add 2-3 drops of vinegar to hold the color, and a pinch of salt to prevent mold over extended periods. Shake lightly and keep in a dark area. Use an old-fashioned quill pen or calligraphy pen at any point thereafter for making your entries.

A Reiki Article

The energy that we channel is described in various ways: we are said to be working with universal energy, we are passing on unconditional love, or chi, or prana. But there are aspects of the energy that are not being explained through this use of words, and in this article I want to talk about the essence of Reiki energy. In doing this we will touch on Taoism, QiGong, Shintoism, meditation, breathing, chanting and the use of the Reiki symbols.

But it's more than that. A crystal is one of the many bounties of the Earth's crust. They are a powerful tool and correspond directly to the element of Earth, but also the Air, Fire and Water.

Although Bee Balm is somewhat of a giant in medicine and aromatherapy applications, uses in folklore and magic are surprisingly rather sketchy and hard to find for this herb. Of course, for purifying and relaxation spells, Bee Balm is top notch when leaves and flowers are tied in a cloth and placed under hot running bathwater, and as such, this is considered a good addition to spells or rituals concerning peace, happiness, contentment, restfulness, and ridding oneself of negative energies or hexes.
