💕Aphrodite's Water 💕

This is a fruit-infused water recipe that I have affectionally coined Aphrodite water because of my personal associations with her and how I use this water. This is my UPG.

This is a simple recipe you probably already make, so why not add it to your magical and devotional routine; its ease of access, easiness to make, and versatility make it a powerful potion, great for spells, or an offering.

How it is Used:

As a potion: tailor the fruits to taste and desired magical & health properties. I drink this to connect with Aphrodite and increase my feelings of beauty, self-love, and increase my libido. I am also actively trying to be healthier and it's a good replacement for unhealthy beverages. I often combine drinking this with self-care and self-love rituals dedicated to Aphrodite. It creates an atmosphere.

As an offering: say a prayer to Aphrodite as you prepare it and offer it to her. I will typically keep this on my altar and pair it with rose quartz and sea shells.

Spells: when using for spells, I especially like to use rose petals as a garnish because I feel like it pleases Aphrodite (and me) but it's optional.

Best used in spells for abundance, fertility, self-love, romantic love, and attraction.

Use it to create a spell jar; in this case, I often add flower petals and herbs. I will often also add incense ashes or essential oils in scents associated with Aphrodite such as sandalwood. Depending on the spell, I may write something on a piece of paper and have it dissolve in the water.

Use it to extinguish spells involving fire: when burning bay leaves, or other ingredients for spells as mentioned above, I will extinguish the fire with this water.

Fruits To Use:

*many fruits/plants can be associated, but not all "infuse" the water well enough for it to taste good if you're drinking it.

Pomegranate: said to be first planted by Aphrodite herself.

Strawberries

Raspberries

Blackberries

Figs

Apples: we all know that famous story

Watermelon

What's needed:

Water

Ice (optional, but recommended if you're drinking it)

Lemon, lime, or oranges

Your choice of fresh or frozen fruit that is associated with love, lust, beauty, or sex

Reusable straw (optional, but recommended if you're drinking it)

Rose petals for garnish (optional)

Instructions:

Mix a generous amount of freshly squeezed lemon, lime, or orange with water as a base. Add your fruit and ice, shake/stir, then done. For some fruit choices, you may have to allow it some time to infuse. I recommend using a straw as citrus can be hard on your teeth if you're drinking it.

The Art of Self-Care: Celebrating Women's Beauty Inside and Out

In the heart of every woman lies an unfathomable depth of beauty. While society often emphasizes the physical attributes of beauty, there's a deeper layer to it – one that combines strength, grace, resilience, and a unique spirit. And in the midst of our busy lives, every woman deserves a moment, however fleeting, to cherish and care for herself.

The Renaissance of Beauty

Historically, society's perception of beauty has evolved. The Renaissance period glorified fuller figures, representing abundance and fertility. The Roaring Twenties celebrated the slender, flapper silhouette. Modern-day perceptions encompass a broader spectrum, with an increasing emphasis on individuality and natural beauty. It's about embracing all forms, colors, sizes, and ages.

Beauty Beyond the Skin

A woman's beauty isn't just skin deep. It's the laughter lines that recount tales of joy, the silver strands in her hair that speak of wisdom, the stretch marks that narrate her journey into motherhood, and the scars that whisper stories of resilience.

But with the barrage of beauty standards that women are often held up to, it's imperative to remember that true beauty transcends what the eye sees. It's the spirit, the courage, the kindness, and the fire that burns within.

The Ritual of Self-Care

1. Mindful Meditation: Start your day with a few minutes of quiet reflection. Listen to your inner self, set intentions for the day, and practice gratitude.

2. Natural Skincare: Embrace products that are kind to your skin. Look for natural ingredients, and make time for a weekly facial mask or exfoliation.

3. Eat Beauty Foods: Include antioxidant-rich foods in your diet. Berries, nuts, green leafy vegetables, and citrus fruits contribute to radiant skin.

4. Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water to flush out toxins and keep your skin glowing. Herbal teas like chamomile or green tea are also great for the skin.

5. Embrace Physical Activity: Find joy in movement. Whether it's a dance class, a morning jog, yoga, or just stretching – make it a ritual.

6. Pamper Yourself: Once in a while, indulge in a spa day, a massage, or even a simple bubble bath with your favorite book.

7. Mental Wellness: Remember to care for your mental health. Talk about your feelings, journal, and seek therapy if needed. It's okay to ask for help.

Embracing Beauty in Every Form

The future of beauty lies in authenticity. It's about embracing imperfections and celebrating them. In an era of filters and edits, real beauty is in raw, unedited moments. It's the freckles, the gap between the teeth, the uneven eyeliner, the curly hair left untamed.

Every woman is a mosaic of her experiences, dreams, stories, and struggles. Each one, in her unique way, epitomizes beauty. In the end, self-care isn't just about skincare routines or spa days; it's about honoring the incredible journey of being a woman.

So, here's to celebrating every facet of women's beauty – the seen and the unseen, the loud and the quiet, the external and the internal. Cheers to the art of self-care and the women who embody it.

As the days get shorter, start thinking about what rituals you want to introduce to ease the transition into winter. I posted about this extensively last year and it kept SAD at bay. The idea is retreating and claiming coziness in your life. Here are mine:

started closing my curtains at 7:30 so the change won’t feel so abrupt once it gets dark at 5 — will up by 15 mins every week until time change

have started lighting a candle each night when I close the curtains

upped my vitamin

Hung up my fall moon phases craft and moon wreath

made a solstice paper chain to countdown from vernal equinox to winter solstice

weekly fall simmer pot

have started seed saving and garden harvesting for next year

Have 3-4 indoor art projects lined up

Purchase any extra insulating things (window film, weather stripping, blankets, etc)

Purchased extra air filters so I can change every month (allergy household!) (not that even in the coldest part of winter I open my windows for 10-15 mins each day to air out the house)

Stocking the freezer with single serve soups (faves for my gf/df free life are chili, chicken and rice, squash, pinto, veggie and turkey and bean)

Whatever your rituals, now is the time to start implementing!

general hygiene secrets + tips⋆.ೃ࿔*:･🍦

while u upgrade in other areas of ur life, its important to upgrade ur hygiene and self care game too ✨ and this post can help u do that

DOUBLE CLEANSING ;

not only for ur face but also for ur body, doing so makes me feel a million times cleaner. when i double cleanse my face i go in with an oil based cleanser then a water based cleanser.

my double cleansing body recommendations are the dove bar soap, african black soap or the soaps from the doctor bronners brand

for double cleansing my body i'll use an unscented/anti bacterial bar soap and after rinsing that off i'll use a liquid body gel or body wash that has the scent that i wanna smell like

MY TAKE ON UNSCENTED BODY PRODUCTS ;

i think that unscented body products r lowkey slept on but in that same breath i can kinda see why. personally, i like to use an unscented soap sometimes and then make my body smell even better by using a body butter or a lotion but thats SOMETIMES.

TAKE CARE OF UR FEET ;

use a foot file/foot scrub to ensure baby soft, barbie-esque feet. before bed time make sure to moisturize ur feet with a body butter ro vaseline and sleep with fuzzy socks on.

also keep ur toes clipped, filed, and preferably painted. personally i like to go for white toes cuz i just think its classic, but in general do NOT neglect ur feet.

ALL ABOUT FRAGRANCE ;

i love to collect different fragrances and buy a lot of perfumes bcuz i just love the variety, i love the adorable packaging i just LOVE perfume. dont be afraid to blend perfumes together and experiment with how different notes in different perfumes can work together and give u ur own unique scent.

dont sleep on oil perfumes either, personally i find them to be very rich and SO LONG LASTING?? they're absolutely amazing. when u apply the perfume try not to rub, instead press and apply it to ur pulse points.

HOT TIP - when spraying perfume on ur body, make sure to apply some onto the insides of ur knees + ankles bcuz smell travels upwards so when u walk by, the air will smell yummy 🎀

SLUGGING SECRETS ;

slugging urself before bed ensures that when u wake up ur body will be SOFT and SMOOTH and glowy. the basic before bed slugging routine is to go in with a deeply moisturizing body lotion/butter. ur gonna wanna lather urself completely (from the neck down to ur ankles) then use a body oil.

things to look for in a body lotion or body butter - helps with properties like firming and tightening of the skin. aids in deep moisture if ur someone who has dull or dry skin.

its important to find a body butter + oil combination that works well with ur skin and doesn't break u out (plus smells good)
