We all have to eat, so how about integrating some kitchen magic into mealtimes? Sometimes Tuesday arrives and we feel we’ve had a sluggish start to our week. Well, the planetary ruler of Tuesday is Mars, and he’s a mover and a shaker! So let’s harness some Martian energy today and cook up some momentum for the rest of the week.

Using herbs and spices that correspond to Mars is a great way to add the energy of action and momentum to our own spirit. Cumin is a staple resident on most spice racks and is a common ingredient in favorite dishes like tacos and chili. Instill a dash of magic in your meal by adding cumin to taste in either dish while stirring in the form of a pentagram and chanting:

Spirit of cumin, bring to me

Some Martian momentum and energy.

By pot, spoon, and planet,

So mote it be!

Enjoy a magical dinner aligned with today’s planetary energies and then rest well tonight for a better tomorrow!
