First Garden Harvest

August 01, 2013 by Emyme
Color of the day:  Purple
Incense of the day:  Nutmeg
 
Lammas: the first of the three harvest sabbats. Offer blessings to Lugh and collect petals from the flowers in your yard and garden for drying. No doubt you have planted flowers that have special meaning for you; for example, marigolds and sunflowers for the sun and roses for love. Consult almanacs to see what gatherings are best done at night.
After complete drying, place the petals in airtight, clearly marked and dated glass containers. A local craft shop can help if you are unsure of the drying process. Store the petals in a cool, dry place. Throughout the year you will find these ingredients have great power, beign from your own soil and prepared by your own hand.
