After some realizations last night, I’ve realized that some deities have been with me longer than I can remember. I need to start a better routine for meditation and astral projection. However the warmth and love I’m feeling with all three of their candles lit is indescribable.
are people online really promoting the idea that each crystal has a “lifespan” metaphysically and should be replaced after that time? that’s not sustainable and holy shit what kind of idiot really believes that a rock can sit nicely for 300 million years and still keep its ~ magic ~ but also believe that you have to replace your stone after 4-5 months because it’s “not magical anymore”
Samhain is, among other things, the witches new year. We look back on the previous year, let go of what no longer serves us, let go of the phases in our lives/versions of ourselves that have reached their death, and look forward to/plan for what is to come. That's why I decided to make some roasted pumpkin seeds for the New Year aspect of Samhain!
Seeds carry so much potential. Potential for life, rebirth, and abundance. Seeds, to me, represent the natural cycles that we must connect with and live by. Seeds contain the life of next year's abundant spiritual harvest. And all of this potential is well protected inside the seed shell, waiting to sprout. These were made with seasonally corresponding spices that align with my intent.
On Samhain, I'll cast my intent on the seeds I eat, as I invision my goals for the coming year 🌙
-------------------
You'll need:
🎃 1 cup of pumpkin seeds- potential, prosperity, abundance, protection, manifestation and attraction of wishes, rebirth.
🎃 3 tablespoons of butter- fulfillment, emotional richness, happiness, nurturing energy.
🎃 2 tablespoons of brown sugar- sweetness in life, love, happiness.
🎃 Ground Cinnamon- protection, spiritual focus, psychic awareness, love, prosperity, money, health.
🎃 Nutmeg- prosperity, money, health, psychic awareness, love, happiness.
🎃 Ground Ginger- health, balance, grounding, love, money, success, clarity.
🎃 Allspice- health, luck, abundance, prosperity, money.
🎃 Salt- protection and purification.
🎃 Black Pepper- banish negativity, protection.
The spices don't have measurements because they're all to-taste :) add plenty!
--------------------
1. I washed the seeds after gutting the pumpkin and let them dry for a day. If you decide not to do that, make sure you wash off any pumpkin gunk and pat the seeds dry well.
2. Preheat the oven at 350°F. Cleanse your space as you choose.
3. Melt the butter, and add to it the sugar, salt, and spices. Keep in mind the magical properties of these ingredients as you add them, and how those properties will serve your intent for the year to come. Stir counterclockwise as you invision all that you'll be releasing from the past year, imagine it dissipating. Take a deep breath. Then stir clockwise as you focus on attracting all that you want for the coming year.
4. Pour the spiced melted butter over your seeds in a bowl. Mix the seeds to make sure they all get coated.
5. Place the seeds on a baking sheet or a nonstick baking pan, you want enough space for the seeds to be spaced out from each other. Doesn't have to be perfect, just make sure they're not all clumped together.
6. If you had let the seeds dry out, they will be done in about 10-15 minutes. Stir them every 5 minutes. If you didn't let them dry out, they'll be done in about 25 minutes, and still stir them every 5-10 minutes or so. They'll be done when they look caramelized and are slightly crispy.
Being synced with the moon cycle is good and bad. Cause I do not wanna do any prep for the full moon
