We love a good simmer pot here at Enchantments for a few reasons. They're an easy way to boost the energy in your home, welcome in good spirits and banish negativity, as well as add a delicious aroma to the air. Plus, the leftovers of the ingredients (both the herbs and water) can be used for a ritual bath afterwards, so you can literally soak in all your magic. For all you aspiring (and seasoned, pun intended) kitchen witches out there, this one's for you. 

What You'll Need:
Spring water (4-5 cups)
A large pot
Allspice Berries, 4 tablespoons or about 1/4 cup
Bay Leaves, 4-5 leaves
Cinnamon Stick, 3-4
Cloves, 4 tablespoons
Orange Peel, 2 oranges' worth
Peppermint Leaves, 1 teaspoon
Black or Green tea leaves, 2-3 tablespoons
Optional: A strainer, a large mason jar, disposable/reusable tea bags

How To Make a Prosperity Simmer Bowl
Gather all your ingredients together and pour several cups (4-6) of spring water into a large pot. Heat the water on the stove and as it begins to boil, add each ingredient one by one, focusing on the intention and magical property within each plant, herb, and fruit. 

Allspice represents balance, protection, and motivation, so focus on those qualities as you add it to your pot. It's what "holds" all the other ingredients together in this spell. Next, add in bay leaves, which are great for bringing in money and abundance. Next, add cinnamon sticks, which are good for protection and motivation, so if you've been feeling like you need a little fiery push in your life, this might do the trick. It also awakens the senses, which is a great ingredient when you're looking to add more awareness and concentration to your money-motivation connections. 

Next, sprinkle in your cloves, which help banish negativity, add protection, and help usher in prosperity. Orange peel is the "brightness" you need for this spell, so you're welcoming in sweet, beautiful, delicious abundance. Orange is also connected to solar energies, which center around growth, fertility, and overall prosperity. Peppermint is good for invigoration and that extra boost you might need to actually do the work of manifesting prosperity in practical ways, while green and black tea are connected to welcoming wealth, health, and balance. 

Now here's the thing: As you add each ingredient to the pot, you can chant over your herb/spice/fruit to let your intentions be known. If it helps to rhyme or sing something, so be it! But something as simple as "Let this orange peel, like rays of sunlight, bring brightness and abundance to my home. May this peppermint give me the pep to overcome money obstacles, and may the aroma of bay leaves invite money to my doorstep." 

Let it simmer on the stove for several hours, letting the aroma fill your kitchen and home, but be sure to refill it with cold water as needed so it doesn't boil completely down. As you do so, you might want to spend a little time making a new list of goals, desires, and streams of income (or a plan for welcoming in wealth and blessings). Remember that magic is also about following up with practical actions, too. You can't win the lottery for instance unless you buy the ticket, etc. 

How To Do A Ritual Prosperity Bath
Let the elixir cool off and strain the liquid through a cheesecloth or colander. Keep BOTH the liquid and herb mixture: Add the mixture to a tea bag (or tie off the cheesecloth with some string) and keep the elixir in a jar or put it back in the pot. 

In the evening, draw a hot bath, conjuring the memory of the individual herbs and their magical properties. Focus on how these individual and collective energies of the herbs will now permeate your life and envelope your life, marking a clear path for abundance, like the forward rush of a river. Pour the cooled simmer pot water into your bath water and soak for 30 minutes. As you settle in the tub, focus on various paths being cleared in your life to welcome in new abundance, whether that be through money, removed obstacles, new work opportunities, new blessings, and unexpected (positive!) windfalls. 

Soak up the magic you've created in the bath and be sure to keep track over the course of the month for new changes in your life in regards to prosperity and new sources of abundance. You can also return the herbs back to the earth by scattering them under a tree or your lawn.
