Ginger is an energetic herb, and it adds a bit of fire and spice to anything in which it is used, whether that is a healing cup of tea, a salad, a savory dish, or this special soup. Ginger root is a quickener and is renowned for how it can make magic happen faster. It is also medicinal and helps heals from colds, congestions, flus, and fever. Combine ginger with carrots, which are wonderfully grounding and bring what is hidden to light, and you have a simple soup that can ground and center you, heal you, and make you more psychic—all at a faster pace. And as if that wasn’t enough, it is beautiful to smell and to see and is pleasing to the senses in all ways. This is what you need for this bowlful of soothing soup:
- 1 pound of carrots, cleaned and sliced; set aside the carrot greens
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, chopped
- 1 large clove garlic, peeled and crushed
- ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper, extra for garnish
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 4 cups fresh water
- 1 lemon
Put all the carrots except for one in a big pot and cover with water; simmer on medium heat and add in the ginger, garlic, pepper, and salt after the first five minutes. Place the last carrot on your altar. After twenty to twenty-five minutes, the carrots should be tender. Transfer everything to a blender and blend until smooth. At the very end, add in several squeezes of lemon juice. Give a stir and pour into bowls or mugs while nice and warm. Use a few leaves from the carrot tops and a tiny sprinkling of red pepper as garnish.
