Merlin is my companion and my familiar. So, I figured that his name should be the title of this Witch's room. I'm going to post spells, both new and well used ones, and all kinds of information on the craft. I'm a 5th generation Witch, so I have a lot of older learning that I would love to pass on. Come in, have a cup of tea, pet my cat, and maybe learn something along the way

Spring health
Dandelion Rheumatism Potion
To make a potion to cure rheumatism, begin with half a handful of fresh dandelion leaves. (Please, MAKE SURE THEY HAVE NOT BEEN TREATED WITH ANY WEED KILLER!!!) Put the dandelion leaves in a cup of boiling water, saying:
By power of leaf and herbal charm,
By potion´s strength, relieve all harm.
Pain be gone and joints be free.
As I will, so mote it be.
Infuse for fifteen minutes, adding a clear quartz crystal for the last five. Drink half a cup of the potion daily. Carry the crystal with you, but wash it each time you make a new batch of potion to remove the accrued negativity. After a few months, the dandelion potion will remove the acid deposits that cause the pain of rheumatism.
Dandelion leaves are also great added to a spring salad, though slightly bitter in taste, they are full of vitamins and good things for your body!
Another good tip is to add some leaves, that have been slightly crushed, to a bottle of vodka..... Let sit in the vodka for a week, strain the leaves out, and cap the bottle. A shot of this is the winter is refreshing, and healthy
