Earth – choose items from Mother Nature, oranges, cloves, rosemary, pine, etc.

Fire- the heating element under your simmer pot correlates with the element of fire

Air – the simmer pot’s steam permeates your space

Spirit – listen to your intuition when selecting ingredients and set the simmer pot in motion, add the YOU!

Let's Begin.
As mentioned, choose your ingredients based on your desired outcome, make a list.
For example, if the intention is general protection, you could use rain water, rosemary, cinnamon, clove, nutmeg, star anise, and vanilla.

If the above does not resonate with you, there is always the option of programming your own water.
A simple method for this is taking a sheet of paper, writing intentions or power words, and then setting it under a container of water and leaving out under the moon light for one night. Another way to program water is to set intentions through speaking, singing, or chanting to it. Sit quietly while holding a container of water, visualize your intended end result, and speak your intentions for that water.

Bay Leaf Add-On You can also preform a general attraction/banishment spell by writing a variety of things you'd like to attract (or banish) from your life on bay leaves, and adding them to your simmer pot.

For example, to preform an attraction simmer pot you'd: select your water and other ingredients, get a few bay leaves and a pen, carefully write the things you'd like to attract on each bay leaf (example: positive outcomes, financial security, peace, a new home, healing, money, love, good health, etc.)

π˜πŽπ”π‘ π’πˆπŒπŒπ„π‘ ππŽπ“
β€’ Once you have everything ready, find a large pot and fill 2/3 of the way full with the water you selected.

β€’ Add your ingredients one at a time while saying aloud β€œWith (insert name of Ingredient) comes (insert correspondence you’re using it for).”

β€’ Once all of the ingredients have been added, use a utensil and slowly stir all ingredients clockwise to attract and promote your spellwork, or counterclockwise to banish or disrupt a situation.

β€’ If you are home and can provide attention, start your simmer pot in the morning and let your spellwork fill your home and work it's magic all day! (never leave active stove unattended)

Water to ingredient ratio:
An unwritten rule to follow here is enough water to fill your pot two-thirds full. As for the other ingredients, use as much or as little as you feel drawn to use for each. Always make sure you have plenty of water and never leave your simmer pot unattended while simmering!

Simmer for as long as you'd like, while remembering that water evaporates and you may need to add some throughout the day, if you're simmering all day.

*Discard or compost your ingredients when finished*
