Due To Personal Reasons I Will Be Practicing Witchcraft

anyone else got problems

Important Reminder:

Witches who began their practice YESTERDAY are still valid witches Witches who began their practice 5 MINUTES AGO are still valid witches Witches who had to TEACH THEMSELVES are still valid witches Witches who had someone TEACH THEM are still valid witches Witches who have been practicing in secret for YEARS are still valid witches

Witches who didn’t realize that they’d been doing magic ALL THEIR LIFE are still valid witches

Witches who were initiated into a COVEN are still valid witches

Witches who work ALONE are still valid witches

You are a Witch the instant you decide you want to claim that Title, and no one can take that from you. So don’t let them take that from you

Hi! I'm a baby witch and I'm starting by learning and doing simple things like tea magick and sachet bags. I love all kind of flowers and hace a small garden myself. Being from Spain, I'm very fond of orange blossoms, which here are called "azahar" ¿Could you know by chance what are their magic properties and correspondences? They are blooming now and I would love to do somethung with them.

Creating A Morning Ritual 🧘🏾‍♀️☀️

The Summer Solstice has finally come! We are officially halfway through the year. This energy is great for manifesting, expressing gratitude, and making changes in your life for the next few months. Now is the best time to create new morning rituals, to not only enhance your living but to enhance your magic as well! ✨

What is a Morning Ritual?

A morning ritual is anything you do to get your day started. In the witchy world, a morning ritual combines mundane tasks with everyday magic practice.

Sometimes the morning is the only time we get to practice magic, with our lives being so hectic and busy. 

How Long Should it Be?

Your morning ritual can last anywhere from 10 minutes to 1 hour or more.

First figure out how much time you have to spare in the mornings. Do you have 9am classes or work really early in the morning? Set your alarm for 10-20min before you have to leave, and do your morning ritual then. Work overnight and only get the mornings to sleep? Set an alarm for early afternoon, the exact time doesn’t matter. Mornings completely free? Set up I comfortable time to rise and you use as much time as you’d like.

The ritual should last as long as your activities do. If it takes you 20 minutes to do yoga and you’d like to include it in your routine, try to allot time for that. Which brings us to the next point:

What Practices Should I Include?

Anything that you want to become habitual and/or anything you’re trying to improve at.

It takes 21+ days to create a habit, and 1,000 hours minimum to get good at something, so including these things in your morning ritual will help speed up that process.

A normal morning ritual consists of regular activities like: making tea/coffee, stretching, taking a shower etc. When you’re coming up with your list, make sure to include these tasks that you’re already used to doing. (this will be helpful in figuring out how much time you need, as well)

To spice up your morning ritual, try to turn those mundane tasks into something more magical. Then, consider which of your witchy practices require little energy and can start you up for the day.

Some examples of ritual activities include:

Pulling tarot/oracle cards for the day

Showers/baths for cleansing 🚿

Smoke cleansing 💨

Making tea/coffee with herbs corresponding to your intentions for the day (ie. rosemary before going to any classes/lectures) 🍵☕️

Doing chakra meditation focused on a specific chakra ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🧘🏾‍♀️

Sun Salutation Yoga ☀️

Creating a quick crystal grid

Going outside and walking barefoot, for grounding 🌱🌿

Burn incense with scents/herbs corresponding to the day’s intentions

Write out affirmations/intentions for the day in a notebook/journal

Dream journaling! ✨

Working on a page in your grimoire 📕

Playing music and dancing around the house to stir up energy 💃🏽🎶

Lighting a candle on your altar or around your sacred space (bonus points for color based on intention) 🕯

Quick self-love/glamour magic 💎

Etc. etc. etc.

Your list could include one, a few, all, or none of these things. It’s all about what feels right for your individual practice. If you don’t already know what you want to do, look into what other witches or spirituals in your belief do on a daily basis. For example, practitioner of Norse Mythology often work with runes, you could definitely include that in your morning ritual.

But most importantly your morning routine is your own. Make it what you want it to be. It can be as long or as short as you’d like, and as eccentric as you please. The most important part is that you enjoy what you’re doing, and you feel energized doing it.

If you have anything else you like to do in your morning routines send them to me or reblog under this post 🖤

You’re healing every time you

get out of bed because there’s something you’re excited about.

don’t think about people who left.

clean the clutter in the room and dishes in your sink.

smile at yourself and random people.

do something kind and out of the blue to make someone happy.

work out or meet with friends even though you have no energy to.

calm yourself down when your thoughts race.

remember to drink water.

don’t dwell on things you can’t control.

do things good for yourself, even though you have no motivation.

tell yourself that you’re growing from this, and you won’t feel like this forever.

may you get a sign this week that shows you that you’re on the right path and that things are flowing and moving in your favor. may the sign be evident, clear, and direct

What really gets me is when you're reading a book and the chapter labels have, like, vines or floral details around them or something. it makes me so soft - just- the fact that someone was like 'ooh we can add beauty here, we totally should' and they did it

reminder that everything is working out. the universe is 111% working in your favor. you are powerful, you are beautiful, you are love. everything is going to turn out better than you could've ever imagined for yourself. you are exactly where you need to be to grow further into your power

A reminder for my struggling witches and pagans

It’s okay to have to learn to believe in magick. It’s okay if a part of your brain says that everything you’re doing is fake. It’s okay if you have no idea how to be spiritual or religious, but you just know you are.

It’s hard to adapt to a new spirituality, no matter how much it feels like the right path for you. It’s hard if you were raised non-religious or by a religion that taught you everything you’re doing is a sin.

You’re here because you’re a witch or pagan. A REAL witch or pagan. You’re finding your path, and you’ll grow and learn to believe in everything it entails. One day, that little voice in your brain will be gone.

I believe in you. You are valid. You are strong. Go be the magickal being you are. 

Blessed be!

You weren’t born to be a slave. You weren’t born to work a 9-5 job and then retire and die. You weren’t born to be another pawn in the grand scheme of society. You were born to stand out; you were born to share with the world your gifts and talents. You were born to speak your truth and express yourself at a deeper level.

If there is something that your heart longs for, if you hear this silent whisper of your intuition telling you to go in a particular direction, don’t hesitate – go for it. Go for it. Do it with fear, do it with unsureness, do it with doubt, but do it anyway. Do it because it is your responsibility to express your talents, to follow your passion, and live a happy and fulfilled life. 

The moment you make a firm decision connected with a strong intention, the entire Universe starts working in your favor. Suddenly you encounter the right people, right circumstances, unexpected miracles come your way. But you have to do this first baby step, you have to make that decision. If you don’t build your dream someone else will hire you to help build theirs. For the rest of your life, you will be a mechanism in somebody else’s machine. Go and build your own empire. Create your happiness, you absolutely deserve it.
