The Butterfly ink is a magical ink whose main ingredient is Saffron. Although we will give you a detailed Herb Analysis on Saffron we would like to give you some hints about this beautiful flower to know what you are doing. Saffron or Crocus is a herb so anciently sacred that you will find it in so many references, in so many civilizations and religions. Crocus was a friend or maybe a lover to God Hermes (latin Mercury). They were playing when Hermes accidently killed Crocus. The God was so devastated by the loss of his beloved Crocus, he created this wonderful flower and he dripped 3 blood-drops of Crocus coloring the center of the flower and the threads / strands. From this day Crocus-Saffron was the sacred herb of Hermes! Saffron is not sacred only in ancient Greece but also to India! Saffron was sacred to the Gods and as you can find it in the ancient recipe for Amrita, the food of the Gods, the Hindu equivalent of Ambrosia!
Saffron is a herb associated to Sun (primarily) and Mercury as planets and to Air (primarily) and Fire as elements. Thus Saffron is a Masculine and Projective herb. This you might have already known, but i'm pretty sure that you will be surprised when you'll read in the following lines that not only Saffron is sacred in Islam, the Butterfly ink is widely used by Muslims to contact Allah (God)! They actually use it exactly as a magical Ink! The Butterfly ink is recommended by the Prophet Muhammad and his successors!
So what is Butterfly ink?
Butterfly ink a really powerful tool every urban Witch, every rural Shaman, every secluded Alchemist, every natural born Mage should know and practice! If Rosewater is the Magical Ink for wishes and corrseponds to the Element of Water, if Dragon's Blood ink is the Magical Ink used for most spells and corresponds to the Element of Fire, the Butterfly Ink is the Magical Ink for prayers, invocations and Talisman craftsmanship and corresponds to Element of the Air!
How can you make a real Butterfly ink? You will need the following ingredients:
* 1 part of Saffron threads/strands * 3 parts of Arabic Gum * 12 parts of clear alcohol
Preparation:
* Turn the arabic gum to dust. * Put the Saffron threads on a thermostable vessel. * Boil the alcohol and then pour it over the saffron! Look the golden-yellowish color of the threads filling the alcohol. Now chant:
