Witchy mental self care

If you're even just a bit familiar with modern Witchcraft, you probably know about the self care culture in the practice.

From magical baths to anti anxiety spells, we have all kinds of tips and tricks disguised as magick to help us through the day.

Here's some small witchy tips I know/came up with:

》 on the days you can muster up some energy, try getting out of the house for a little magickal adventure: collect leaves, pinecones, berries and mushrooms; do a little sunbathing; take pictures of nature; do some cloud divination. Just think of everything you do as magick: you're not just walking, you're connecting with nature!

》 if you have trouble sleeping, boil some bananas, pour the water into a cup, add cinnamon or vanilla and drink it. It should help a little.

》 if you have a stress migraine, lay down and place a crystal on your forehead. The slight pressure can help with the pain.

》 before going to sleep, take some time to light and incense and walk around the room to make sure the smoke gets in every corner. Choose an incense scent just for this: after a while, your brain will make the connection between the scent and sleeping, helping you fall asleep. This also goes for essential oils or scented candles. Make sure to put out the candles before going to bed.

》 spreading incense smoke is also a way to get a little more relaxed before bed

》 talk to yourself. OUT LOUD. It may seem silly but this helped me a lot personally. You can do this in various ways:

> simply think out loud. Problems that seemed huge feel a little easier to deal with then.

> if you have a very multifaceted personality like me, you can reply to yourself. It's kinda funny to go from "emo thoughts" to "mom friend", which uplifts my mood a little.

> create a character to talk to. Make sure they're the caring and kind type though.

> talk to your deities if you believe in any.

》 keep a little journal on a cheap notebook. Scribble down how you feel, or doodle it. The less perfect it is, the more emotion it shows, so don't worry about it. Visualize all your frustration, your sadness, your anxiety going into that page. Now seal it: write a sigil on top of it, smear it with black ink, drip candle wax on it. Whichever works best for you.

》 make a little self care box and keep it next to your bed. You can put a journal in it, nice smelling things, anti stress objects, photos, letters of appreciation written by your friends, a plushie... anything

》 open a window and let the air clean itself. Look outside and let the wind blow on your face. Then, wash it. Light a candle and feel the warmth on your cheeks. Apply some earthy oils on your skin. You've just cleansed your face with the four elements!

》 meditate with a mantra. "I will be okay", "I'm not my mental illness", "It's just my disorder talking", "Being alive is enough", "I can learn to love myself" are some suggestions. Repeat it our loud or in your head while you take deep breaths. Doing 5 minutes of it is okay.

》 Crystals, dice, leaves, anything solid and smooth can become an anti stress ball.

》 read my post about ring magick ;)

》 keep yourself occupied. Read up on magickal stuff, or just an interest of yours. Givee that series you are interested in a try, even if it feels exhausting.

》 split your tasks into small steps and only think about those. Do as many as you can: you've done great. The rest can wait. You can write them down, fold the sheet of paper and put it in a jar along with some herbs, crystals and trinkets that make you feel happy. A jar of little accomplishments you can read when you feel really bad.

》 if you feel the urge to self harm, put some ice on your arm or wrap a rubberband around it, pull it and snap it against your arm. It will hurt, but at least it won't leave nasty scars. You can enchant the ice or band with the intent "help me overcome this". You can also write on yourself, with the least toxic pen you have, why you want to hurt yourself. Let the emotions out like that.

(If you couldn't stop the urge to self harm, remember to take care of the cuts. Disinfect them, wash them and put gauze around them. If you don't have the necessary items, you can place a tissue on the wounds and keep it in place with your hand or something else. As long as it doesn't cut off the circulation or hurt your skin.)

This is all I could think of. Thank you for reading and stay safe :).

Disposing of Spell Materials

sometimes after performing a spell, you find yourself wondering, hmm, what do i do with these ingredients? the way you clean up or put away your materials can be its own step in the ritual, and affect the spell. here are some suggestions for the different ways to end rituals or properly dispose of the materials 

consider first:

📦keep it - consider if the spell seems like something you could ever possible need to reverse later. that love-attraction jar may invite people you don’t like, and need to be ended, but it’s more difficult without the original materials. keep the ingredients in a jar, box, or something, (maybe label it too) so you can easily nullify the spell if you need to.

✉wrap it up - in a jar or a pouch, if it is a spell you want to last a long time, gather the ingredients you won’t be reusing and keep them in a place you

🏺jar spells - just keep the materials in the sealed jar. this is the sort of spell that can be reused simply by shaking the jar, lighting a new candle for it or recharging its energy. 

🔔cleanse and reuse - obviously you don’t want to throw your crystals or jars out after a single spell. separate the materials used and cleanse them individually, cutting the ties to the spell. 

now what do i do with it?

🔥it’s been burned to ash - for banishing place it on the back doorstep and sweep it out into the wind. for releasing its energies and inviting influence, release the ashes into running water, given it is safe to return to nature (non glass, nonplastic nontoxic, biodegradable etc)

🕸bound objects - bury or keep in a box somewhere, burial for spells you will never remove, hiding for things you may undo one day. 

🛡protective spells - best hung up or hidden in a corner of the house, or place over the front door of the residence. 

☣non-biodegradable materials - if its something you can’t safely return to nature, and it can’t be reused because it was burned or broken, use the acting of burning or breaking to move the spell’s energies into the world. properly throw out or recycle the objects.

Beginner Lessons: Misconceptions in Witchcraft

Witchcraft is the Same as Wicca

This is a common misconception but it’s not true! Wicca is a religion created by Gerald Gardner with sects., rules, and a heirarchy. Being invented in 1954, it is  a rather recent creation at that! Witchcraft, though maybe not known by the same name, has been practiced for thousands of years and is the act of manipulating the energy around you to achieve a goal. That being said, you can be a witch and also be wiccan, but the two are not mutually exclusive.

Witchcraft is All About Worshiping Satan and Sacrificing Animals

This is an unfortunate rumor caused by pop culture sensationalizing the craft. While some witches do, in fact, have a relationship with an entity called Satan (and there’s nothing necessarily wrong with that as long as they don’t harm themselves or others), most do not believe, or at least worship, in it. While sacrificing animals is done in a humane way in various closed religious practices, most do not.

Magick Requires My Blood

While blood magick is a thing, it is super rare and blood is not necessary in any cases. In fact, it is discouraged as it can host a lot of dangers, both medically and magickally!

I Can’t Be Christian and a Witch

This is a lie! I know several witches who integrate witchcraft into abrahamic religions. The way I see it, your relationship with God and Jesus Christ is extremely personal and will never be the same as with anyone else. It’s nobody else’s damn business, either!

I Need to Find a Coven

This is also a misconception, not helped with pop culture. While a coven definitely has some benefits, it is never necessary. Solitary work and study has a lot of benefits as well as a coven isn’t for everyone. 

My Pet is My Familiar

Ah, how I wish this was always true. Truth be told, it is very rare for your house pet to be your familiar. A familiar is a being who guides and helps you through your magickal work. Your cat sitting in the room while you perform a spell, while it might indicate that your cat is attracted to the energy (or just simply likes being in your presence), is not necessarily a sign of them being a familiar. Familiars can come in any shapes and sizes such as any animal or even something not of this world such as a being that resides in the astral. Such familiars like this can even stay with the same family for several generations.

Some of these things are things that I wished I was told as a young witchling. I hope this helps anyone who needs it!
