Tea is a beverage with a very long history – probably the longest in human race. Legend has it, that the Chinese emperor Shen-nong discovered the herb in 2737 BC as the leaves accidentally fallen into the hot water he was drinking. Thus, amazed by Tea Magic, the emperor dedicated his life to the invention of Tea Brews and the magic the comes out of each. From this time until now, mages, witches and alchemists have tried very hard in order to find the perfect brew to heal each illness and sickness or to achieve their every will.
History of Tea and Magic Lore
Tea Magic is a very powerful form of Witchcraft as it employs both Magic and Divination. Tea Witches are considered very Zen and very powerful at the same time. They are not only herbalists, but through the magic of the herbs they have found a way to centre themselves and achieve wisdom. It’s no wonder that monks and wise hermits choose tea over coffee. Coffee is a very magical herb too. Yet, tea has more balanced yin energies and help us in so many ways.
MAGICAL TIP: To ensure good sleep, witches used to fill pillows with dried tea leaves. Witches believed they could banish negative thought and nightmare in this way. While it was refreshing their energy!
Do all types of tea come from the same plant?
This is a common belief.

This gives all teas their distinctive taste and of course magical properties and health benefits.
