daily practice ⋆·˚ ༘ *

❃゜・。. ・°゜✼ ゜°・ . 。・゜❃・。. ・°゜✼ ゜°・ . 。・゜❃

the act of daily practice if often very misunderstood. a daily practice does not mean to do spells and rituals every single day in order to be a witch. it is not necessary for a daily practice to be huge or something specifically special.

you may even find yourself so distant from your craft that you put it on pause for weeks, yeah even months. does this make you any less of a witch? does this make you any less powerful? no, absolutely not!

we are human beings. it is absolutely normal to put certain things last, especially when there are more important things for you at the time. perhaps you can't practice witchcraft while studying for exams or during stressful and difficult times. or you just can't bring yourself to practice it for no specific reason at all.

just know that this is so damn normal. you should never feel bad about yourself for pausing your craft. there might be a reason for that you don't yet understand! so don't push yourself too hard.

a way to keep the magic in your life, even after pausing your craft for a while, is by incorporating daily practices into your everyday-routine, even when you're still practicing actively at the moment.

now what does daily practice mean?

daily practices are the things you do on a daily basis, regularly. we'll soon get to how some of these practices can look like.

it can help you to stay in touch with your craft, with your power, you spirit guides, deities, etc. even on days you're not drawn to do actual magical rituals—which is NORMAL and absolutely OKAY.

a few examples of daily practices:

1. stirring intentions in your drinks and foods

2. wearing crystals

3. enchant your jewelry and wear it

4. dress according to today's planet ruler

5. put spell oils on your body or clothes

6. use glamour magic (this can be as simple as drawing sigils or runes on your face with your moisturizer or makeup)

7. light an ancestor, deity or spirit guide candle (if you have one)

8. divination

🌸 Self Love Jar 🌸

Materials

Glass Jar with lid

Whole Cloves - draws in love. Good for divination.

Chamomile Buds - Love, sleep, protection and purification, also reduce stress.

Brown Sugar or Honey – to add a little sweetness (I think we all need to be a little sweeter to ourselves)

Rose petals – not only good for self love but attracting things to you and beauty spells too.

Pink Himalayan Salt – Salt is known for its protective and purifying nature

Lavender – calming and is great for heightening awareness. Also to rid anxiety.

Hibiscus Flowers – perfect for attraction and helping with dreams

Rosemary – this is my go to herb for lots of spells and rituals. A perfect substitute for any herb. Stops gossip and is great for the memory.

Bay Leaves – Write your intentions or mantra on the leaves (I am strong, I am beautiful etc)

Cinnamon – perfect for getting rid of negative energy and ‘warming up’ your own power!

Pink Peppercorns – to give yourself a little kick

Rose Quartz – to help open your heart and create feelings of peace. Raw Rose Quartz for self love in its most natural state.

Pink Candle – To seal the jar.

Method

Light some incense and take a few deep breaths before placing all your items into a jar. The size will depend on how powerful you want it or if you want to carry it with you. I have some teeny little jars that pack just as much punch as the larger ones. It is all about the intention you put into it.

As you add each item say either out loud or to yourself what you hope to gain or are wanting from the item.

‘I add this lavender to help ease my anxiety and give me a sense of calm’

With the bay leaves I like to use a permanent marker and write clear directions.

I AM STRONG

I LOVE MY BODY

This sets the intention solidly and you are not asking for permission. The words are declaring that you have got this and it is true!

After all of the items have been added you need to seal the spell. Light the candle and allow the wax to drip down the sides of the jar/bottle to form a wax seal. While still wet I like to place the crystal, in this case rose quartz, into the wax.

Hold the jar in your hands and feel the positivity you just created. Place onto your alter or work desk where you will see it regularly. When you feel the need for a little pick me up, hold it and feel the good vibes flow.

🌸 I am constantly growing, evolving and becoming my best self. I am enough. I am whole. I love myself. 🌸

Witchcraft Exercise - Spring Cleaning

There’s a marked tradition of cleaning and airing out the house in the springtime when the weather warms. As you’re dusting and tidying and getting rid of winter stagnation, take some time to do the same with your craft.

Clean and organize your workspace. If you have an altar space or a shelf where you keep bottles and jars and the like, remove everything from the surface and give it a good dusting. Take the opportunity to rearrange things or swap out pieces if it suits you. If you have ritual tools that don’t often get cleaned, check them for signs or rust or wear and give them a bit of love. Repair things that need fixing, if you can. If you have an iron cauldron that you use for fire magic, get a wire brush or some steel wool and gently remove any burnt residue left inside.

Sort through your supplies. If you have lots of candles and crystals and small items laying about, consider getting some small totes or craft organizers to keep things tidy. Divided storage boxes for beads or scrapbooking supplies are great for small items, and shoebox-sized caddies are perfect for taper, chime, and votive candles. Organizing things will make your space easier to navigate and also gives you a proper idea of what you have on hand. Which might help you resist impulse purchases the next time you’re out shopping for witchcraft supplies. While you’re tidying, be sure to discard any rubbish, candle stubs, wax blobs, herb scraps, bits of string, incense bases, and so forth that might be cluttering up the place. 

Discard things that are too old or worn to be useful. Dried plants and seasonings can usually be kept for 1-3 years if they remain in sealed containers. If they have no scent anymore or smell musty or mildewy, discard them and sanitize the container. If you’re using supermarket spices, you can use the expiration date on the container as a guide. Powdered material will likely last longer than whole herbs or cut-and-sifted material. One helpful tip is to put a purchase date on packets or bags of herbs when you buy them, or to put a little date sticker on your jars of herbs when you refill them. (Anyone who’s worked in food service will probably be familiar with the concept of container dating or day-dotting.)

If you make oils or tinctures or suchlike in your practice, check on these as well. Make sure nothing has gone off or lost its’ potency. Day-dotting your potion containers will help with this as well. A simple sticker with the name of the brew and the date it was bottled will help you keep track of your supplies and know when something needs to be tossed and replaced. (You can also print labels with the ingredients and purpose of the brew if you’re feeling super organized.)

Reorganize your books and resources. Review what's there and see if there are any materials that need to be weeded out, donated, or discarded. Remember that as you grow and progress, some things will become obsolete or may show themselves to be unhelpful or inaccurate. It's okay to remove things from your resource library that no longer serve you if you want to make some space on the shelves.

You can also cleanse your workspace and/or components while you’re tidying if you wish. It doesn’t have to be a full clean-slate-everything-must-go cleansing, but it can be helpful to just clear out stagnation or bring in some freshness and vitality.

Happy Witching!
