Hey all,
Today is cleaning day, but it is (almost) the end of the month. To prepare for new blessings going into September, school is starting for some, fall is approaching, I wanted to do a Fall inspired ALL PURPOSE simmer pot while I clean.
Why do a simmer pot? It helps expands positive energy into the home, while expelling negative energy OUT of the home & simultaneously making the home feel & smell good.
What you’ll need:
Water - check every 30-60 mins to refill
Apples- healing, fertility & divination
Oranges - bring joy & abundance
Cinnamon (sticks or ground) - warmth, power and passion
Basil- prosperity & luck
Bay leaf- money & financial success
Vanilla or vanilla extract -sweetness, love & mental awareness
Clove (whole or ground)- protection & banishing
A pot of some sort. Some people like them glass pots, I use my crockpot.
Simmer with intention. Speak into it, enchant while adding your ingredients. I like to simmer for the entirety of the time I clean, then allow the mixture to cool down.
I do these simmer pots once every quarter, usually around the solstices, but I felt called to do one today. Sundays are usually my cleaning days because they are ruled by the Sun which also signifies success, wealth, personal growth & healing, which is a great way to start the week. you can do this any day of the week, my second favorite day would be Saturday.
When you’re all done with the simmer pot, you can use for potpourri in your home or a freshener spray (if you add to a little Florida water or unscented cologne in a spray bottle). You can also just bless and thank the fruit & herbs for their job well done and dispose of it outside of the home as a way to give back to the Earth, which is what I usually do. I may change that up today by drying everything in the oven at 200° to make a potpourri & put it in my pumpkin as a display on my counter. I plan to keep some as a spiritual cologne and offering to Santa Muerte for her altar!🍂🍁🧡
I hope you all have a prosperous and productive day!
Love y’all!
Xoxo,
Alexx
