This recipe is meant to make a concentrated water that can be added to any regular water to make it holy, or added to a regular recipe to give it a boost. I'm leaving out most gestures, etc in the recipe, as you'll want to make it your own.
- rainwater collected under a full moon
- rainwater collected under a waxing moon
- rainwater collected under a new moon
- rainwater collected under a waning moon
- local water- ideally from a spring, but filtered tap water will work
- (all rainwater should be clean- I hand filter mine using coffee filters)
- sea salt
- bowl
- measuring cup, preferably glass
- wooden spoon
- final vessel (like a glass or crystal bottle or jar)
Begin by drawing a banishing water pentagram over the local water, and say: I cast from this water all that is negative or harmful, that it be clean and cleared. Hold the water over the bowl, and then say: This local water honors the spirits of the land, and the place I make my home. Pour water into the bowl.
Take the bottle of new moon water. Draw a banishing water pentagram over the new moon water and say: I cast from this water all that is negative or harmful, that it be clean and cleared. Hold the water over the bowl and then say: Water from the new moon, lend your easy intuition and knowledge beyond the shadows to this sacred brew. Pour the water into the bowl.
Find your bottle of waxing moon water. Draw a banishing water pentagram over it and say: I cast from this water all that is negative or harmful, that it be clean and cleared. Hold the water over the bowl and say: Water fallen during waxing moon, lend your growth and ever increasing potential to this sacred brew. Pour the water into the bowl.
Take your bottle of full moon water. Draw a banishing water pentagram over it and say: I cast from this water all that is negative or harmful, that it be clean and cleared. Hold the water over the bowl and say: Water fallen under full moon bright, lend your peaking power to my sacred brew. Pour the water into the bowl.
Get your bottle of waning moon water. Draw a banishing water pentagram over it and say: I cast from this water all that is negative or harmful, that it be clean and cleared. Hold the water over the bowl and say: Water fallen under waning moon, lend your power of banishing and decreasing to my sacred brew. Pour the water into the bowl.
Gently mix the waters together, deosil with your wooden spoon and chant the following (I did it five times, but do what you feel is right):
Five waters in the cauldron go,
Powers mix and mingle so,
Magick mixture, power divine,
Amplify intent, the will defines.
Then add a pinch of salt and state something like: A pinch of salt to seal and purify against all other energies.
Mix again, and state the chant above again (five waters in the cauldron go).
Then charge with your personal energy however you usually do.
Then fill your vessel with your new concentrated holy water. You may want to pour into the measuring cup first, since the spout will help you pour into a bottle. The chant is structured so that, though all of the moon's energies are mingling within the water, the user's Will will define how those energies are used.
