Both blackberries and raspberries have protective power, and so does the pomegranate. In combination, these three ingredients create a delicious, quick, and seasonally appropriate potion to help keep you safe as the nights lengthen and the shadows loom.

This recipe can be made either with fresh berries and pomegranate seeds in a juicer or by combining the already made juices. Either way, a half cup of each of the juices is a good amount for one serving. Once the juices are mixed, empower them by holding the cup of juice and envisioning an electric purple-black energy streaming from your hands into the liquid, filling it with protective power. When you feel the power has peaked, say:

Bramble berries and Underworld gift,

Let all harm be cast adrift.

Protective power here now held,

With magical potion all harm repelled.

Now drink the potion to absorb the magic.
