Is 19 ingredients way too much for a sel

19 isn't a magic number — nothing about a spell gets stronger at a specific ingredient count. What actually does the work is the intent while you're mixing it, and for most of these recipes (bath soak, candle, soap, sugar jar) the shorter the list, the better it behaves: more often than not, extra items just make it harder to rinse off or more likely to irritate someone's skin.

If you tell me what kind of recipe it is, I can be more useful. Two things I'd check before you make it:

• Essential oils — anything above a few drops total, or any "blend" you mixed yourself, is the most common cause of a reaction. Patch-test on a small area first, and skip it entirely in a bath for a kid or anyone with asthma or eczema.
• Any "use within X days" claim — that shelf life comes from what's in it, not from the ritual, so check the actual known ingredients rather than the recipe's instructions.

What I can't do is the spell itself, and no card can tell you whether 19 is the right number — that would just be me making something up. If the reflection you're after is about a decision or a feeling rather than the recipe, that's squarely what I do work with, and I'm glad to pull cards for it.
