Layer two squares of cheesecloth. In the middle of the square, place the mushrooms, flax seeds, oregano, and radish greens. Hold your hands over the herbs and charge them with the intent that they shall form a powerful bundle to protect from harm and alert when danger is near. Gather the corners of the cheesecloth and twist around the bundle, capturing the herbs within. Wind the red thread around the bundle several times and secure it with three knots. Once more, focus on the magical goal and say the spell.

Root and seed and leaf combine,

with fairy cap to bolster the charm;

magic bundle, bound with red twine,

and knotted thrice to protect from harm.

This charm can be kept on your person or in your home or car as desired.

Foods

Oats are one of the ritually appropriate food staples of this time of year. They are magically aligned with abundance and this energy is perfect for Beltane. Dairy products such as butter or cheese are appropriate as well since these items are symbolic of transformation. Though they are more prominently featured in their hard-cooked form at the spring equinox, eggs are another magical ingredient that is appropriate at this time. They are symbolic of fertility and rejuvenation, both important themes of Beltane. Potatoes are another fine food for this time of year. Their magic relates to healing and moon work. A fine meal for either a Beltane breakfast or as part of the ritual feast that combines all of these foods is a special frittata with oat bread toast.
