There is no real fifference betmoen the water of an herb and an herbal tea used fn herbal medicine. Magical tas are frequently diluted or col fred with food color to make a specific water.

Magic waters thet fre sold in magic stores often have many othor ingredients ‘ted to them, In most cases, additions are made to increase Sales appeal. You NEVER use magical water or tea internally. MAKING WATER FOR MAGICAL USE ‘There is one rule you must commit to memory if you wish to make any kind of water into a herbal tea 1 applies to healing ts wel as to magic with herb, and is one of the few rules which tpplies to both art. The rule is that leaves and flowers must be steeped, while roots and barks should be boiled.

If you use herbs for Iheaing as well as for magi it might be noted that when your healing herbs lose their virtue fam age or poor storage they tay still be strong enough to use magically. The opposite ition does not hold true a ll. Some magical herbs are members of a general fanily of herbs, and any member of family will do, Others must be taken from very specificunder vory specific conditions to obtain the virtue desired ‘Agaln—NEVER DRINK magical herbal teas. They are not ‘meant for internal use! ‘There are two general methods for preparing magical herbal toas. They give different effects, depending on the prayer made over thom atthe time they are “brought to fe” ‘The two methods depend upon the temperature of the water used in malding the tan. The cold method, using room temper: lature or cooler water i preferred for fresh picked herbs and flowers. The cold method allows the water to absorb the astral ‘magnetic influence of the herb as well as same ofthe “akashic”™ inflence ~ the influance of the universal life force of the herb. Inthe hot method you use some form of boiling water, and only the akashic influence or its universal life force content trans- fers to the water. Any magnetic influence in the herb tea must bbe added by the prayer ofthe magician when the herb is used. Tt ia quite possible to have clients make teas by the cold ‘method for their own use. However, teas made by the hot pro- cess should be prepared by the magician. Or the magiian could give a few ounces of water (which the magician has Drayed over tothe clint to be added to the hot toe once it has reached room temperature. Another way of dealing with Us is to purchase small (single service) bottles of vodka, which the ‘magician prays over, and these could be added by the client to the completed herbal tea. In this way herbal baths, cleansers cor other herbally based spells used by faraway clients will be as effective as the ones actually made by the magician. Vodka will ake good magical charge, especially if it is « higher proof. Vodka alo has the ability of preserving herbel teas that ‘are not rorigerated, The Cold Herbal Tea Method In order to make a col herbal tea you nood a clean jar with a fairly wide mouth, such as a mason jar.
