house hunting prayer to Hestia
O Hestia πολύολβος, I seek your aid in finding a new home
As you tend the sacred hearth of Olympus may the smoke of heaven guide me to the home meant to be mine
May you guide me to a home where you can be worshipped in your full splendor and glory, where great offerings will be made for you daily in praise and gratitude
May you guide me to a home where my family can live in joy and abundance, and may you protect us from struggle and grief
You are ever eternal, rich in blessings, most beloved Queen of the home and hearth. May your divine fire roar, keeping the universe in motion. And with it, may you help me find a home worthy of your glory.
all the places Hestia can be found
i don’t think Hestia is limited to the kitchen, hearth, and home. i think she’s everywhere we look for her.

Kitchen Witch Recipe- Lemon Rice for Abundance
The mundane- This is a nice little side dish made with ingredients you might have on hand. The lemon is bright without overpowering the dish. Honestly, just a winner all around in my book.
The witchy- Rice shines as the key ingredient, so this dish is excellent for enhancing spells for abundance, especially with dill (great for money magic) in the mix! You also get some protective energies from the garlic and parsley which could be separate focuses entirely, or tie back into protection of your assets.
Makes 4 servings!
Ingredients
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 medium onion, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 cup long grain rice
Juice and zest of 1 large lemon
2 1/2 cups vegetable broth
1/2 cup fresh parsley, chopped
1/2 cup fresh dill, chopped
Salt and pepper to taste
Directions
Heat the oil in a pan. Add onion and cook over medium heat until softened (about 3 minutes). Add garlic and cook another minute.
Stir in uncooked rice and toast 2-3 minutes, stirring often.
Stir in lemon juice and zest, then add vegetable broth.
Bring to a simmer. Lower heat and cover the pan with a lid. Cook about 20 minutes, until liquid is absorbed and rice is tender.
Turn off the heat and leave covered about 10 minutes.
Uncover and stir in parsley and dill. I like serving this with additional thin slices of lemon.
As always, if you want to add a little extra razzle dazzle to it, you can make a ritual of it. Focus your intention on each ingredient as you add it in. Light a green candle. Include stones associated with abundance on your kitchen altar if you have one. Anything that helps you feel more magical as you make this dish.
I made these peaches and cream parfaits for a love spell.
These magical parfaits are designed to strengthen the bond between you and your lover, using the symbolic properties of peaches, honey, cinnamon, and rose water.
What you'll need to make peaches and cream parfaits for a love spell
4 ripe peaches (symbolizing love, longevity, and fertility)
1 cup heavy cream (representing nurturing, love, and protection)
1 tablespoon honey (to sweeten the relationship and promote affection)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract (for sensuality and warmth)
1 tablespoon rose water (symbol of love, beauty, and romance)
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon (for passion and desire)
1/2 cup crushed graham crackers or biscotti (grounding the spell, representing stability)
1 cup heavy cream (to top off with extra sweetness)
1 cup Greek yogurt (for a smooth, creamy texture and healthy element)
Strawberries (to garnish, symbolizing love and sensuality)
Instructions
Set your intentions. Before starting, take a few moments to meditate and visualize the love or relationship you wish to attract or strengthen. As you prepare each ingredient, infuse it with loving intentions, thinking of the outcome you desire.
Slice the peaches into thin wedges while focusing on love and affection blossoming in your life. Visualize the energy of the peaches aligning with your heart’s desires.
In a small bowl, drizzle the peach slices with honey, and sprinkle them with a pinch of cinnamon. Stir gently while repeating an affirmation of love and attraction (e.g., “With the sweetness of honey, love flows my way, bringing warmth and joy to my day.”)
In a chilled bowl, whip the heavy cream with the vanilla extract and rose water until soft peaks form. As you whip, visualize the sweetness and tenderness of a loving relationship growing stronger with every movement.
When the cream is ready, taste it and feel the warmth of the vanilla and rose on your tongue, affirming, “Love flows to me easily, filled with sweetness and joy.”
Gently fold the whipped cream into the Greek yogurt until fully combined, creating a smooth and creamy layer representing harmony in your relationship.
In two clear glasses, layer the peach mixture, granola, and cream mixture. Start with a layer of peaches, followed by granola, and then the cream mixture. Repeat until the glasses are full, finishing with a layer of the cream mixture on top.
As you prepare the parfaits, focus on your intentions for the love spell. Visualize the sweetness and affection you wish to cultivate in your relationship. You might say a loving affirmation as you layer the ingredients, like “With each layer, my love grows sweeter and deeper.”
Enjoy the parfaits with your lover, sharing your feelings and intentions. You can serve them during a romantic dinner or a cozy date night.
Additional tip: As you enjoy the parfaits, take a moment to reflect on your relationship and the love you wish to nurture.
