Bedridden witch: Discreet edition

Bedridden Witch: Discreet Edition

I realize not every witch has the luxury of being open about their craft, and this can be doubly hard when you’re restricted to your bed and often reliant on others. Not all of these may work for you, but may they inspire you all the same!

*If you are reliant on a caregiver who may not approve of witchcraft, please be extra cautious.* There are plenty of ways to practice that don’t put your care and health in jeopardy, and some of the things listed may put you at risk. Please use common sense! <3 

Online:

Keep your grimoire in a document or on the notes in your phone.

Make an altar on Pinterest, a tumblr sideblog, in a video game, etc.

Apps! Keep track of the lunar cycle, look at the night sky, use a candle app, pull some tarot cards, draw some sigils.

Emoji spells.

Witchy playlists.

Cleansing:

Open your window

Let the sun or moon wash over you

Manipulate the energy with your hands

Burn incense (or a scented candle), as the smoke wafts around the room let it push away any unwanted energy.

Visualization.

Listen to music that makes you feel calm, channel that. 

Lots of ideas on this post (Bedridden witch: Stale energy edition)

Warding:

Draw sigils using water

VISUALIZATION + energy manipulation

Make a witches bottle that looks like something else

Make/enchant a room spray that boosts protection (and smells good!)

Keeping magic items nearby:

Slowly changing your interests can allow you to have many things without raising suspicion. (Herbal remedies/tea blending = access to herbs, geology + the love of pretty rocks = access to crystals, jars of dirt, etc.). Additionally, the New Age/witchcraft aesthetic seems to be all the rage these days, which normalizes it as a thing many people just incorporate into their interior design!

Keep sigils in your pillowcase or under your mattress

Keep crystals in your pillowcase or nearby (crystals are becoming a common thing to just have/decorate with)

Herb/spell sachets under your pillow/nearby. I used to have one that was stuffed full of lavender but had crystals and sigils hidden in the center.

Make and keep sun/moon water in a waterbottle.

Ways to connect to the elements (often through decorating/mundane objects) can be found in this post!

Candles are great, real or fake! I like the fake ones because if I forget about it/don’t have the energy to access it, the worst thing that happens is the battery dies.

EO diffusers and Himalayan salt lamps.

Plants!!

Performing magic and the like:

Meditation, dream magic, astral projection.

Energy manipulation: Keep an energy source nearby and draw from it when you need it/to cast small spells, enchantments, blessings, etc. Manipulate the energy in the air.

Visualization can be a powerful thing. 

Enchant items in your room.

Plant magic! Bedridden ideas in this post.

Drink magic and enchantments are great, and teas often have correspondences already based on their blends!

Divination:

Tarot: use a mini deck, an app, playing cards or small two card spread that are easy to conceal under a blanket.

Scrying: use a small picture frame with a black background, a small bowl of water or your phone screen. 

Pendulum: they can be pretty easy to conceal! But you could also use one that doesn’t look like a pendulum, a necklace, or anything tied to a string.

You could also do automatic writing, shufflemancy, dice divination or stitchomancy.

Lots of ideas for bedridden divination in this post!
