Kitchen Witchcraft

Did you ever eat a simple meal that was so satisfying and made you feel energized, rejuvenated, centered, and content. Chances are there is magic in the recipe. Some people practice magic unknowingly. Their attitude, mood, and intention all influence the meal.

From start to finish when preparing a meal vibrations influence... The recipe, simple or complex is the outline for preparing the meal. Attitude and mood put vibrations into every part. If you are happy with loving thoughts while gathering the ingredients this will add these vibes to the recipe. If you are angry or hateful these energies are added. The order the foods are combined influence harmony. Combining texture, animal or plant and color help control the mood. Harmonious transitions following the spectrum have a calming effect. Radical changes like black to yellow to purple to red to green tend to excite. Mild and subtle changes tend to center. Spicy and sweet tend to expand. Raw, cooked, and pre-cooked adds more combinations.

One of the greatest kept secrets of great chefs is sometimes unknown even to them. They practice magic in the kitchen They are sometimes called eccentric, picky, extravagant, or moody.... but what they do is pay attention to detail. They enjoy what they do and get great joy from their work. They put their heart and soul into it. They care about their clients. Just like parents and grandparents, they want you to leave rejuvenated, energized, healed, harmonized, and happy. Sometimes when leaving Grandma's house after a meal we feel great. Just as a smile can influence a gathering, attitude, and vibration leech into the food.

We can make a conscious effort to influence food. The wise Chef calls upon all energies to enhance the meal. From here on we can choose to influence our meals. We can choose to be aware and influence with the knowledge that it is our fault. We take responsibility and influence on purpose. We can use the kiss method(keep it simple stupid) just by being aware of our moods and attitudes.

Others take it a little further. Sympathetic magic influences by creating vibrations or energies which cause the foods to create desired effects. Ritual magic influences by creating moods and intentions. Visualization is a big part of this kind of magic. Sigil magic uses symbols to impart influence. Colors, candles, and scents create moods. Scented candles should not be present during preparation since they hide the aromas of the foods and can cause mistakes in the combinations of ingredients. They can however influence the meal. The scent of warm bread can be all the appetizer one needs to turn on the digestive juices.

The alchemist of old used hot and cold, positive and negative energies to transmute materials into their desired materials. Herbalists added the powers of the plant world.

The tools of the trade, pots, pans, bowls, spoons, knives, cutting boards all create moods that influence. When used in the right frame of mind, influence, and intent. Cleaned and used with respect these tools add attitude. A dirty, unkempt kitchen can impart chaos and disorder. Treating these areas with respect causes the chef to be centered and focused. Focused intent influences. When doing ritual magic the priest or priestess usually perform rituals that get them in a state of mind that allows them to influence with confidence. They purify the area( clean the kitchen). They use their tools with reverence.

Boiling potatoes in the big pot is like the base of a potion prepared in a cauldron. The cutting board is like an altar on which a portion is prepared. The ingredients peeled, sliced, and diced are prepared for the recipe. The recipe gathers the energies, tastes, and textures. The knife (athame) directs these energies. The spoon wand which stirs, blend, and harmonizes. A holistic attitude can blend the combinations in a harmonic balance which helps to center the influences.

Thanks, reverence, and respect for the food also influence. Waste implies disrespect and can draw negative energies. The Universe notices when energies are appreciated and seems to enhance the effect.

So let's take responsibility for our actions. Let's focus our intent. Let’s control the energies which emanate from our meals to heal, harmonize, energize, and bring positive into our world. Give thanks to our creator for these abilities and with our gift of free will choose happiness, health, wealth, power, and might with the wisdom and willpower to do right. Let all who share in our meals and all they come in contact with gain good luck and good fortune.

Spread the positive energies because we can. It's our fault.
