Carrot Bundle for Prosperity

At the end of September, women in Scotland would go out into the hills to dig up wild carrots, then give them out in bunches of three tied with red ribbon as tokens of prosperity and plenty in the coming year. (Split roots were especially lucky!) Considering their shape, carrots are talismans for fertility and virility. They also repel negativity. As winter looms, create a simple charm reminiscent of this old way.

Bind three carrots with red ribbon or yarn, then knot it three times. Seal the magic with these words:

"A root for health,
A root for wealth,
A root that's just for me.
Upon my dish,
Grant my wish,
My will,
so mote it be!"

Eat the carrots to imbibe the charm. If you want to add a bit of passion and decadence to your spell, saute the carrots with a bit of ginger and butter.
