Florida Water Recipe
Rootworkers know just how important and essential Florida Water is for almost every foundational practice that we do in our tradition from cleansing to sweetening to spiritual baths and head rogations to feeding our ancestors. Florida Water is a staple across not just hoodoo, but also many other Africana and Latine religions and folk traditions. You can read more about it here.
While it’s possible to buy Florida Water in botanicas, on Amazon, and even in Walmart these days, any rootworker knows that homebrews are usually the best. There’s plenty of recipes out there, but here’s one of my favorites adapted from Roots, Stones, Sticks, and Bones by Stephanie Rose Bird.
Ingridients:
16 ounces of fresh water
¼ cup 100-proof vodka (for ages 21+)
6 drops lavender essential oil
2 drops clove bud essential oil
8 drops bergamot essential oil
Tools:
Measuring cups for the water and vodka
A dropper for the essential oils
A clean glass jar, bottle, or another container
A clean bowl
Instructions:
1) Pour some water into a clean bowl. Freshwater from a natural, local source like rain or river water is ideal, but if you use non-tap water, make sure you filter it and boil it so that it’s as clean and sterilized as possible.
2) Bring the bowl of water even to your face so that you can speak your ashe (energy and intent) over the surface of the water. Recite Psalm 25 or any other prayer that relates to cleansing, blessing, and/or protection. Let your voice resonate over the water.
3) Add the other ingredients to the bowl starting with the alcohol and then each of the drops of essential oils. Concentrate on what you intend to use the Florida Water for as you mix in each ingredient. Gently stir clockwise until thoroughly mixed and blended evenly together.
4) Pour the contents of the bowl into your glass jar, bottle or container for the Florida Water. With the alcohol, it’ll be highly flammable so make sure to store it safely away from heat, candles, and flames.
5) Now you can use your Florida Water! Check out these 19 different ways you can incorporate it into your practice. If you have an ancestor altar, you may want to ask your ancestors to bless the Florida Water for you and leave the fresh batch on the altar for a few days before using it.
Note: Feel free to reblog and boost this post, but remember it’s for closed and semi-closed practices. If you’re not a part an Africana or Latine tradition that uses Florida Water, you can try making this non-appropriative alternative!

Y’know I reblogged this a bit ago and was saved from financial probation and getting kicked out of school because of it, just mere months from graduation. Got a call from the financial aid advisor telling me that they made a mistake with filing my account (or some other sort of clerical error) and said that, basically, they owe me money. Welp.
Last time I reblogged the money cat, I won two $100 gift cards at work.
Me as an Herbalist
For those of you that don’t know yet, I am on my last trimester of therapeutic clinical herbalism training. So I am a clinical herbalist and I have been doing this learning in a class setting for 4 years now. Before this degree, I received my Bachelor in Biology (another 4 years), which greatly contributed to my understanding of the micro and macro biological systems involved in the consumption of herbs. In a few months (3 months), I will have my masters of science in therapeutic herbalism with an AOC in clinical. If you don’t know what the differences in herbalist are, here is a link to my earlier post. I am also a yoga instructor, which has given me the tools to be able to provide a healing space for you to heal on multiple levels.
I am fully equipped to help you heal in the best way I know how. I want people who visit my page to know they are safe with me as a herbalist, and I am fully capable. So if you need a clinical herbalist, it would be my pleasure to help you heal you mind, body, and spirit.<3<3
How do I become one?
There are a bunch of ways. You could go to school for it or apprentice for it. There is a lot of info on the herbalist guild site
https://www.americanherbalistsguild.com/
There are a lot of great programs in a lot of places.

How to produce a drug free altered state of consciousness in 10 minutes
When one thinks about altered states of consciousness, psychedelic plants and other substances might be the first things which come to mind. Although these substances can be used in this manner, as well as for medicinal purposes (and more), such states can also be achieved through other means.
Meditation is one great example, and there is no shortage of studies explicating this phenomenon, or the subsequent changes in brain activity and in the nervous system which regular meditation produces. In fact, the effects of things like drugs, yoga, self-hypnosis, mutual hypnosis, meditation, and brainwave feedback have all been extensively explored by various scientists, researchers, psychologists (and more) from all over the world. Altered states of consciousness is definitely an interesting area of study.
Dr. Bruce Greyson, Professor Emeritus of Psychiatry and Neurobehavioral Science at the University of Virginia and one of the ‘fathers’ of near-death studies, even urged the United Nations to take these matters more seriously. This is because increasing our knowledge of ‘alternative’ experiences and health practices is incredibly important; studying these phenomena sheds lights on new, unexplored areas of science, and tells us more about the nature of our reality. It is the job of science to examine these so-called ‘fringe’ topics.
One of the latest bits of new research to emerge on the topic of altered states of consciousness comes from a psychologist in Italy. Giovanni Caputo, from the Univeristy of Urbino, has figured out how to induce a drug-free altered state.
The study was published in the journal Psychiatry Research.
He produced this effect by asking 20 volunteers to sit and stare into each other’s eyes for 10 minutes straight. After doing so, participants started reporting strange “out of body” experiences alongside even stranger hallucinations. The volunteers were told very little about the purpose of the study, only that it had to do with a “meditative experience with eyes open.”
After 10 mintues, the volunteers were asked to complete questionnaires detailing what they experienced during and after the experiment.
“The participants in the eye-staring group said they’d had a compelling experience unlike anything they’d felt before,” Christian Jerrett writes for the British Psychological Society’s Research Digest.
So what exactly is going on here?
“On the dissociative states test, they gave the strongest ratings to items related to reduced colour intensity, sounds seeming quieter or louder than expected, becoming spaced out, and time seeming to drag on. On the strange-face questionnaire, 90 percent of the eye-staring group agreed that they’d seen some deformed facial traits, 75 percent said they’d seen a monster, 50 percent said they saw aspects of their own face in their partner’s face, and 15 percent said they’d seen a relative’s face.” – Christian Jarrett.
One explanation could be what’s called neural adaptation, which describes how our neurons can slow down and even completely stop their response to stimulation that is unchanging. This happens when you stare at anything – your perception changes until you blink or something within the scene changes. This explanation, however, only covers one aspect of what participant’s experience when they practice eye gazing.
I’ve heard of this. You can do this alone with a mirror, as well. The light must be dim, such as using only a candle for light source. Stare into your eyes in the mirror, a slight distance away, and after some time your face with begin to morph into things you’ve never seen before. Scary things, other people, angels, extraterrestrials - it’s a very interesting experience! Only takes about a minute to occur.
I know this because my twin and I discovered this when we were little kids. During childhood we shared a bed and when we couldn’t sleep we’d talk to each other in the dark. Needless to say we would have eye contact during this time, and subsequently this phenomenon would happen, and sometimes it would scare us. Sometimes we saw beautiful things in each other’s faces, but mostly ‘monsters.’ The face morphing can be rapid or slow, really depends. On what, I have no clue.
