I highly suggest a nice blueberry and hibiscus tea when looking to touch base with your spirituality and heighten your intuition. Deepening your personal path and protecting your craft. Also, a dash of honey added can enhance this so strongly and beautifully. Remember that witchcraft can be as simple (and delicious) as that.
Please make sure to read into the ingredients before trying; to make sure they are safe to consume for you personally.
🌿 color correspondence: choose a mug that corresponds with the energy you'd like to bring in. for example, if you're trying to calm down, you could choose a blue or muted color.
additionally, if you're like me and have a lot of mugs with graphics or imagery, consider how those correspond. for example, drinking out of a "luck of the Irish" mug if you're calling in good luck for the day.
🌿 herbal properties: the obvious consideration is what the literal herbal properties of your tea are. if you're looking to soothe your stomach, consider peppermint or ginger tea. with this, we can think about caffeine content as well. we can be intentional about drinking caffeinated teas when we need a boost in energy and alertness.
also, remember, nothing is stopping you from sprinkling some cinnamon or ginger powder on top of your tea. get creative with it!
🌿 temperature: this is a component i don't see discussed as much among practitioners. choosing to drink your tea hot or iced can amplify different spiritual properties. i find that iced tea tends to be more physically grounding while hot tea tends to be more comforting and activating. as an example, if you're stressed out, drinking an iced lavender tea may be more affective at bringing in calming energy than drinking it hot. both because of the herbal properties of lavender and the affect of cold on our nervous system.
this obviously can depend on personal preference too! but it's worth considering whether drinking your tea hot or cold will amplify and improve your experience more.
🌿 stirring: this is a classic among witches. you can stir your tea clockwise or counterclockwise to call in or banish energy respectively. i like to stir my morning black tea counterclockwise to help banish tiredness.
this can be especially satisfying if you add spices and/or milk on top of your tea.
🌿 mindfulness & savoring: this part can be especially difficult in our fast paced modern world. but something that i try to incorporate into my tea drinking is mindfulness and pacing myself. as tempting as it is for me to chug an iced tea when i'm dragging in the afternoon, it doesn't honor me or the herbs i was working with. being more mindful with drinking my tea is a small act of rebellion and self care under a capitalist system.
