Boost Your Fertility with the Ostara Magickal Diet Plan

Some foods that are strong in fertility energy are:

• Fruits for Fertility

• fig

• grape

• mulberry

• pomegranate

• strawberry

Other Foods for Fertility

• barley

• eggs

• egg breads

• hazelnut

• hot-cross buns

• milk

• poppy seed

• rice

• sesame

• watercress

Though these foods are the strongest, any foods that represent the early stages of life will work for fertility diets. Seeds and nuts of almost any type can be included in a fertility diet. You may also want to look at foods with certain medicinal qualities. For example, some studies suggest that replacing animal proteins with beans and lentils for protein can reduce infertility issues. They are also high in folic acid, which helps with conception and fetal development. Avocados help your body absorb vitamins. For men, salmon can help raise semen levels thanks to its high levels of selenium and vitamin D.

Some additional fertility correspondences to be aware of:

• Day of the week: Monday

• Animals: rabbits, chicks, frogs, storks

• Colors: green, yellow

• Element: Earth

• Planet: Moon (if your ovulation happens on a night of a full moon, that’s a chance you don’t want to miss!)

• Herbs: daffodil, geranium, hazel, sunflower

• Trees: birch, fig, pine

• Numbers: 3, 7, 12

Complementary Diets for Fertility

Check out our Magickal Diets series for more information on the below, but when working with a fertility diet, consider doing a series of related magickal diets. As a reminder, magickal diets are intended to be finite, with visualizations and intentions focused. If you’re doing a two-week fertility diet, you may want to do a sex or love diet previously and a health and healing diet after, for example.

Our three-part Magickal Diets series covers a few different types of magickal diets that you may want to try in conjunction with a fertility diet. Here is an overview of a few of them:

Health and Healing Diets

Beyond nutrition, certain foods have healing and healthy energies. A health and healing diet can help when you are struggling with the mental anguish of prolonged fertility attempts or just trying to amplify your health to improve fertility. Though it can be tempting to do the health and healing diet before the fertility diet, you might find more success doing it after. That way, you are healing from any emotional pain that might be occurring and hopefully preventing it from impacting your efforts to get pregnant. You can find more information in our “Magickal Diets Part 3” piece, but here is an overview of the foods to strive for and avoid.

Spices and Herbs for Health and Healing

• allspice

• garlic (fresh)

• peppermint

• sage

Vegetables and Fruits for Health and Healing

• apple

• cucumber

• lemon

• olive

• peach

• pineapple

• pumpkin

• sprouts

• tomato

• watermelon

Other Foods for Health and Healing

• almonds

• apple cider vinegar

• cider

• honey

• kummel

• marzipan

• walnut

Foods to Avoid

• canned foods

• deep-fried or fast food

• fatty foods

• overly processed or preserved foods

• salt

• sugar (especially heavy desserts)

Sex Diets

If you’re aiming to get pregnant the old-fashioned way, amping up your sex life is a must-do! Focusing on a sex diet in the week leading up to your fertility diet can help stoke those passions and increase desire. When dealing with fertility struggles (or just the goal of getting pregnant in general), sex can sometimes come to feel like a chore. Help reduce that feeling and keep the flames dancing and the heat between you white hot with a sex diet. More information on sex diets and aphrodisiacs can be found in our “Magickal Diets Part 3” article. Here are the foods to focus on and avoid for a sex diet.

Love Diets

Love is not necessary for sex or procreation, but very often, it is part of starting a family. If doing a series of diets, you might want to start with a love diet before moving on to sex and then fertility. Though love diets mostly focus on romantic love, you can call up and amplify love energies that go to the familial love, having that power grow in you to create welcoming energy for your future child. Below are foods to incorporate and foods to avoid. You can find more in our first article of the Magickal Diets series.
