It's officially fall, which means if you're anything like me you refuse to eat any food that doesn't incorporate pumpkin, cinnamon, or nutmeg.
Well, maybe I'm not THAT obsessed with pumpkin-flavored delectables, but I'm damn near close! And since pumpkin-spice everything is all the rage during this wonderfully crisp season, why not turn your morning latte into a spell?
Oh, that's right. I just gave you justification to get your PSL on! But I highly recommend you make that bad boy yourself. The artificially-flavored mutant you get at a coffee shop isn't the same as the warm, rich decadence you can easily whip up at home with magickal spices like cinnamon, vanilla, and nutmeg. Yum yum!
Today's Pinterest Gone Pagan delight comes from Kristin over at Live Simply. It's a pretty cool site for real food recipes, and I suggest you check it out! If you're looking for her scrumptious Homemade Pumpkin Spice Latte recipe, click here. Or click here to pin it.
What makes a tasty PSL double as a psychic awareness spell? Let's start with the best part—coffee!! While we all know caffeine is a stimulant, coffee in particular stimulates the mind, even just the scent of it! And while that lovely frothy foam makes for a heavenly first sip, the dairy also has the magickal property of spiritual enhancement. Creamy and soul-nourishing. I like it!
Cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves (which can all be found in the pumpkin spice) are the key to this recipe! These open up the psychic channels, allowing us to better communicate with our Higher Self. Vanilla, historically considered a sacred spice, helps us connect to the Divine. And pumpkin—the king of all fall vegetables!—lends us some grounding, which helps us better connect with the natural rhythms of the earth (thus allowing us to tap into Mother Nature's powerful energies!).
Of course, working this spell is as easy as making it. While your coffee brews, envision yourself connected with the subtle hum of energy that surrounds us. As you gently stir in the warm spices, imagine yourself mentally attuned to the vibrations of the earth. As you savor your first spicy sip, picture yourself spiritually alert, your intuition awakened and ready to receive the messages of the Universe!
I must say, I didn't need an excuse to have a warm cup of fall, but this definitely justifies my weekly indulgence!
Happy Fall, Everyone! Now go get your tarot cards, make yourself a cinnamon-scented pumpkin spice latte, and discover what this beautiful season has in store for you!!!
