the calming energies of nature often serve as powerful tools to restore balance and peace within ourselves. Today, I’ll guide you through a simple yet profoundly effective spell using just a few ingredients that you likely already have in your kitchen.
This spell harnesses the cooling properties of mint and the soothing sweetness of honey to help dissipate anger and bring about a clearer, more positive state of mind.
Setting Up Your Space
To begin, it’s essential to create a space that feels serene and conducive to magickal workings. You might choose a quiet corner of your home where you can sit undisturbed. Light a candle or two if you wish, perhaps choose a soothing color like blue or white to enhance the calming atmosphere. Now, let’s gather our supplies:
- A handful of fresh mint leaves (about two to three spoonfuls)
- A sweetener of your choice, honey is traditional but maple syrup or agave are wonderful alternatives
- Water
- A teacup or a small pot
Preparing the Mint Tea
The core of this spell lies in the preparation and consumption of a mint tea. Start by boiling water—just enough to fill your teacup or pot. As the water heats, take this moment to focus on your intention: to cool down your anger and restore tranquility.
Once the water reaches a rolling boil, pour it over the mint leaves. Mint is a cooling herb, both physically and spiritually, and it has been used since ancient times to soothe tempers and aid in emotional release.
Steeping and Chanting
As the mint leaves steep in the hot water, their essence will begin to merge with the steam rising from the cup. This is the perfect time to engage in a meditative practice. Breathe deeply, inhaling the refreshing aroma of the mint, and visualize your anger dissipating with the steam—gently evaporating into the air.
After about five to ten minutes, strain the mint leaves from the water and stir in your chosen sweetener. Sweetness in magick often symbolizes attraction—here, it’s about attracting a sweeter disposition and a more positive outlook.
A Cooling Chant
With your tea prepared, hold the cup in your hands and softly recite the following chant, focusing deeply on each word and your desire for inner peace:
Leaves of mint, cool my mind
Sweeten my views, let me find,
A calmer path, a gentler way,
As this anger fades away.
Feel free to repeat the chant as many times as feels right. Or, if the chant doesn’t align with what you’re feeling, feel free to make it your own. With each repetition, imagine your anger shrinking, becoming less significant with every sip of the tea.
Reflecting and Releasing
Now, drink your tea slowly, savoring each sip and letting the herbal blend work its magick. Sit quietly, allowing yourself to feel grounded and at peace. Continue to visualize your anger melting away, replaced by a cool wave of calm that washes over your entire being.
This spell is not just about the physical act of drinking tea, but about setting an intention and allowing yourself the space and time to realign your emotions. Magick is deeply personal, and the more you put into it in terms of energy and belief, the more you are likely to get out of it.
