☆~《Honey》 -Magical properties

~[Firstly, how do we tell the diference real honey from fake honey?]

Real honey will cost lots more than factory made, and can crystalise depending on what kind of flower polen was used to create the honey.

The crystalisation should be spaced out somewhat evenly trough-out the jar, not lay on the bottom absolutely flat. Atcual honey crystalisation can look as if its climing up the jar from the bottom or top— but fake ones are somewhat akin to putting suggar in tea

How do you test if honey you already baught is fake or not?

Theres three tehnuiqes—

{(Testing it with water)}:

Drop a teaspoon of honey into a glass of water. Fake honey will immediately start to dissolve, whilst raw honey will drop to the bottom of the glass intact.

{(Fingering?? 💀)} (sorry im so immature)

Place a drop of room temperature or cooler honey on your finger, If the ‘honey’ spreads then it is fake honey. If it holds its composition and remains a drop, then it is raw true honey.

{(Matchstick)}:

Finally, dip an unlit matchstick into your honey. Remove it and strike it to see if it will light. A matchstick dipped in raw honey will light with the flame burning off the honey. A matchstick dipped in fake honey will not successfully strike. This is because there is too much moisture in the ‘honey’.

—(Imediety upon any reasurch you'll see it asosiated with feminity. Why?)

Fact about bees: There's three kinds. Worker bee, The Queens– and Male bees.

Contrary to popular belief, Male bees (and ants) dont do much except grow up, find a young Queen, mate & die. It's a bit upsetting, but that's how things function. I think not knowing this is whats leading into people believing its feminine.

In my opinion, you can say honey doesnt have a gender. Because the Worker bees who collect it dont have gender. —But based on your opinion or intent you can interpert it differently.

But I myself believe it's also masculine, because its the male plants that produce pollen.

—(Fertility aspect of honey, and surrogacy?)

I believe its helpful for fertility spells due to what pollen atcualy is. Its the semen of male flowers.

I can see how it can help both sexes (+ intersex people).

But i think it can maybe even be used in spesific situations like trying to find a surrogate who can provide healthy semen/be healthy to get pregnant? — As well as ensuring that the medical process of it all (What the doctor, or in this case, Worker bee, does) is completed without a hitch.

—(Of course, abundance & spring)

Honey can be only made during a spesific time of the year, when flowers bloom. The time most fruit also flourishes.

So of course, its only natrual to connect it to abundance– but id also connect it to some saying that includes the quote "The fruits of your labor".

So you could use honey for spell to help ensure abundance and that you get what you were working for (+ alongside herbs of protective properties to make sure outside factors dont come robb you of your rewards)

+ Can be used for a road opening spell as well, to find a path in life where your skills can be useful and rewarding

+Can be used to check if you're genuenly going down a path of that sorts, or even open your eyes to what good things your skills and work has given you—in order to apreshiate it.
