How to Care For Your Cauldron
When you first get a cauldron, you’ll want to cleanse it. Cast iron tends to hold tight to magical energy, as well as the energy of everyone who came into contact with the metal. You can multitask by making black salt, a magical ingredient perfect for protection spells or banishing spells, while you cleanse your cauldron.
Cleanse your Cauldron and Make Black Salt
Dip your cauldron in the cool water of a running stream and let the power of the current wash away the energy that has settled into your cauldron. Thoroughly dry it off with a towel. Mix sea salt and oil in your cauldron and wipe the sides with the mixture. Rub in the oil the best of your ability and place your cauldron (uncovered) in the oven at 200°C for 30 minutes or until the salt turns black. Turn off the oven, and wait for the cauldron to cool. Once cooled, pour the salt residue (now black salt) into an airtight jar and you’re all set to use your cauldron!
For all these incense burning options, you can leave your cauldron in one place (like your altar) to burn or hold your cauldron by the handle and go from room to room for smoke cleansing rituals. Because incense smoke can be very strong, make sure you properly ventilate the area and do not light incense around children or pets that might be sensitive to smoke.
There is something incredibly special about working with a cauldron. It’s inherently witchy and it can be hard for people to get the image of the Hollywood witch cackling and stirring that big black pot. But the reality is cauldrons are practical, symbolic and fun. Using a cauldron is a beautiful way to pay your respects to all the brave souls of the past who practiced witchcraft in the face of adversity. Enjoy this sacred work while embracing your wild, witchy self!
