take on a classic healing food; chicken soup. Chicken Soup A’ la Furie • 2 pieces boneless, skinless, chicken breast (half breast), cubed • 1 medium onion, chopped • 1 stalk celery, cut lengthwise, then chopped • 2 carrots, chopped • 1 tomato, chopped • 1 clove garlic, minced 114 Chapter 6 • 5 cups water • 1 ½ cups egg noodles • 2 vegetable bouillon cubes • 1 teaspoon salt • ¼ cup parsley • 1 bay leaf Cook the cubed chicken pieces lightly, (about two to three minutes on each side; turning once) in a frying pan with the garlic and drain away any excess grease. Next, add the water and bouillon cubes to a stock pot along with the all the other ingredients except for the chicken. Cook for about ten to fifteen minutes until vegetables and pasta are tender, then add the chicken and cook for five more minutes. Remove from heat and as the soup cools slightly, hold your hands over it (high enough so as not to give yourself a steam burn) and visualize healing energy (blue and/or white light) coming from your hands and third eye and pouring into the soup. Declare to your- self that the soup is a healing food according to free will and for the good of all. The soup is now ready to serve. Note: If you are a vegetarian (as I am), you could swap out the chicken for 3 cups of cubed potatoes and make a vegetable soup.
Healing 115 Healing and Fertility Restoring fertility is a wonderful and truly magical act. So many people have fertility issues, but don’t have the thousands of dollars needed to pay for special medical treat- ments. A wonderful and much less expensive route to try first is using magic to revive the body’s fertility. Since fertility magic is an act of restoring balance to the body, I have grouped it into the Healing chapter. If your healing goal centers on fertility, you can add to the healing walnut charm mentioned above a hazelnut (also called a filbert), and some poppy seeds. Place all these into the charm bag and then charge it with your desire for fertility by holding the bag in both hands and breathing your desire into it before tying it shut. As previously stated, this is not intended to be a cook- book, but when healing and fertility are concerned food is of utmost importance. Here are two wonderful recipes that combine several fertility restoring ingredients: figs, eggs, coconut, and hazel nuts (filberts). Olive and Fig Tapenade (dip) • 1 cup chopped dried figs • ½ cup water • 1 tablespoon olive oil • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary 116 Chapter 6 • 1 teaspoon dried thyme • ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper • ⅔ cup chopped kalamata olives • 2 cloves garlic, minced • salt and pepper to taste • ⅓ cup chopped toasted walnuts • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese Put the figs and water into a pot and bring them to a boil until the figs are tender and liquid has reduced. Use low heat and let them cook for 10 minutes or so. For me at least, it is a good idea to use kitchen scissors to cut up the dried rosemary in little pieces and add it to the boiling figs so that they soften in the water as well. Remove from heat and stir in the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, herbs, salt, black pepper and cayenne pepper. Add olives and garlic and mix well. Cover and refrigerate for a few hours to overnight. Before serving; place both hands over the bowl of tapenade and charge it with your desire for fertility. Visualize a warm glow in the area of the body needing to be restored (depending on gender) and feel the joy and relief of healing. When you are ready, mentally transfer this energy into the tapenade. Next, Un-wrap the cream cheese and place on a serving plate. Spoon the olive mixure over the cheese and sprinkle walnuts on top. Serve with slices of French bread (toasted), crackers or vegetable sticks.
