Once oven is preheated, place this dish with the jars and water in it, into the oven. Turn OFF the oven. Leave for 3 hours.

Place arnica infused oil in top of double boiler, add ½ ounce beeswax (this will make a slave consistency.

Remove from heat, add 10 drops peppermint essential oil, if desired. Pour into jar and allow to cool completely before closing with lid. Note: Arnica salve should be not be used on skin that is broken, or on open wounds. It is intended for use on bruises, bumps, sprains, and aches.

7. Throat Lozenges

What you need:

¼-½ cup honey 1 T ground licorice root ¼ cup slippery elm

Method:

Place slippery elm into a bowl and add a few tablespoons of the honey. Stir to combine and add more honey until the consistency resembles playdoh. (During this time, the plantain/oil mixture on the stove top should be ready to turn off. Remove from heat and allow to cool). Use approximately 1/8 inch of the ‘playdoh’ mixture to roll a small ball to create a lozenge. Roll this ball in ground licorice root and place lozenge on parchment paper. Repeat until all of the mixture is used. Let air dry to harden.

8. Air Purifying Spray

What you need:

Sweet Orange essential oil, 12 drops Lemon Essential oil, 12 drops Clove bud essential oil, 10 drops ½ ounce vodka ½ ounce distilled water spray bottle that will hold 1 ounce

Method:

Mix 1 ½ ounce vodka and 1 ½ ounce distilled water in a measuring cup with a spout. Add 10 drops clove bud essential oil and 12 drops sweet orange essential oil and 12 drops lemon essential oil. Use to purify the air and to clean door knobs, counter tops, anywhere germs may hide.

hi! not sure if ur still doing tasseography readings, but if u are, i would really like one! my question is will there be a future relationship with my love interest? btw my name is gabrielle, initials GB and i’m a virgo sun. the other person initial is GL and he’s a gemini/cancer cusp.

Heya!

Yes, I think there will be love in your relationship! It won't be as dreamy as you wish. The relationship will be romantic, but it will have it's issues in the beginning. But it will grow and won't need as much care after a while! It shouldn't take too long. But yes, love is coming!

Try to be confident in yourself.

Things could get going very soon, but the best will come later :)

☕️ This question is for the tea reading! || Hi!! How do you think my road to becoming a fashion designer would be? I've gotten multiple confirmations to decide on pursuing that as my course/career 😇 thank you!! 💖

Hellooo!

Seems like your road will be slow, but it is also a road to success! Be patient!

You will NEED to make wise decisions! Otherwise your career could flop. (I know this sounds like obvious but that's what I got D: )

Something I also saw: The letter L (capital) and the letter b (small). Keep a watch for those, they might be keys to your problems!

Sorry for the wait! 💕

Hey y'all!

Just fyi, I will finish the readings now in my inbox. I'm sorry if they take time, I'm in the middle of moving so I can't always find time. Othervise, READINGS ARE CLOSED!

[yellowlikealemon]

Pretty sure my skin hates me or something

“My Skin Is Healthy”

Draw this sigil on your skin with whatever you’re using for skincare (like lotion, facial cleanser, face mask, aloe vera, soap, etc.) before rubbing it in or lathering it up.

Happy Lammas y'all!

I'm gonna make bread!! Anyone got any witch tips? Should I add something to the dough?

Also fun fact! Lammas means sheep in Finnish!

[yellowlikealemon]

Hello! I'd love to have a Tasseography readings please? What will my future be like? What do I need to do to achieve my goals? And I also would like to ask about my personality please? Thank you so much × M

Hi dear! I'm so sorry this took so long! I'm in the middle of moving and working so it's hard to find time.

So there were only a few symbols in this cup: a key, a seahorse, a hen and a clover.

Your personality: I'm getting you're a kind of motherly figure? Very sweet and down to earth. A -go with the flow- kind of soul.

Your future and goals: As I said, you probably are used to going with the flow. If you continue like that, you could miss something that could unlock a path of luck that would lead to achieving your goals. So my advice: Keep your eyes open for new opportunities. They won't come right at you, so explore and luck will come your way!

Apologies for a kind of vague reading. I hope it still answers your questions!

[yellowlikealemon]

Hi dear, I hope it’s okay if I ask three questions. There aren’t enough tea leaf readers on here! :) I really liked the examples you put “What will my future be like?" What do I need to do to achieve my goals?”. I was hoping I could request a reading for those, as well as a love reading? Let me know if I should put these questions separately or if all together is fine. Thank you so much! -Ali, Aries sun ❤️

Hello darling!

In the closer future, things will likely go smoothly.

Somewhere in the more distant future, you will be forced to make a choice. You probably won't have all the time you would like to think about it. The right choice could lead you to a path of growth and prosperity. This choice will demand a sacrifice.

In achieving your goals, there's coming some setbacks or limitations very soon. You will recover from them with the right solutions, since they are not permanent. Help might be needed. You can avoid these limitations, if you work smartly to avoid them.

Some secrets might come to light also very soon, if you seek for them. Be respectful about it tho! Most likely they will be good news. Maybe some love secrets? ;)

So there's that! Sorry for the wait, tasseography isn't the quickest way of divination. At least for such a beginner like me! I would love to hear about what these choices and secrets might be, so if you want to, hit me up! Blessed be ☕🌱

Hi! I was wondering if I could ask for a free tasseography reading? My question is, Is there anyone or anything new coming into my life soon? My name is Elizabeth and my initials are EK! My sun sign is Cancer if it's any help! Thank you so much! 💗💛

Hello Elizabeth!!

So what I got is that you will develop some strange feelings for someone/something (= a hobby? something you want to do?) in the future (I can’t really tell a specific timing, sorry). You should stop to think about these feelings for a moment to understand them. Don’t let them take over everything in your life! You might start developing these feelings on a trip or maybe at work?

If you keep working for this relationship/friendship/connection indirectly, they/it will move on. Swallow your pride and be straightforward when approaching. Remember to be humble!

Symbols I saw: Windmill, a rooster, a beetle, a mouse, an arrow and a boot.

I hope this answers your needs! This is the first reading I have done for someone other than myself, so apologies if it is a little vague!

Free tasseography! ☕

Aka reading tea leaves

To improve my skills, I am currently giving out some tasseography readings! I can either...

1. Drink the tea myself and do the reading.

2. Do the reading based on your tea leaves/coffee ground thingies. Here's a guide!

Tasseography readings are great for questions about a broader subject. Good questions are for example "What will my future be like?" or "What do I need to do to achieve my goals?" My tasseography can't give simple answers to yes/no or when questions, because it gives multiple, separated answers!

I'll just need your question and name/initials! Max 3 questions/cup!
