To make the teas strong enough to work, you'll need at least two tablespoons total of dried herbs per cup of tea you wish to make. Allow the herbs to steep for at least three minutes before drinking (unless otherwise noted). To prepare magickal teas for divination you should use a black tea for a base to ward off negativity and to add strength and power to the tea's blend. Have a special spoon consecrated for stirring your magickal brews, wood is preferred. You may also consecrate a special kettle, teapot (ceramic or china) and teacup (also ceramic or china), or two – one for divination and another for drinking other magickal brews. Steep the teas for 3 – 5 minutes. Milk and sweetener may always be added, though cream will curdle. When blending your teas, draw upon the powers of the herbs that correspond to your goal.
