how to deal with a witchy burnout

most of us have been there. we lose our touch with the craft and don’t feel like doing much. we feel too tired and exhausted to put effort in it and sometimes we feels like there’s no point.

here are some tips on how to get out of this sticky situation! 🌙

drink tea ✨

yes, you heard me! drinking teas with specific herbs (like chamomile for sleep, lavender for anxiety, etc.) will help you get in tune with herbal magick. you can also stir your tea clockwise to bring forward something (like good energy or calmness) or add a sigil on the bottom with some honey (doesn’t have to be perfect). 🍵✨🌸

nature walk ✨

get in tune with those energies outside! i always find a walk on the grass helps pick up my mood (especially barefoot!!). envision the energies from the earth flowing into your body 🌱🌎🍃

witchy movie ✨

sometimes, we just need a little inspo to bring us back to our craft. watching witchy movies can bring back that spark into us! some great movies i recommend are:

the craft

hocus pocus

the love witch

practical magic

charmed (a show)

carrie

the vampire diaries (a show)

tarot ✨

start off with one card if more than that feels like it would tire you. it’s ok! you can do one in the morning by asking a simple question like “what should i focus on today?” 🔮✨💜

food ✨

incorporate some magick into the food you eat! this isn’t hard at all, especially since we all eat food everyday. simply add an intent to an herb or spice and then add it into your food. for example, add cinnamon onto your oatmeal, with your intent being that you will have abundance 🥐🍦🍩

songs ✨

songs are great to get you back into magick! listen to pagan music, celtic songs, or just look up “witchcraft songs,” “wiccan songs,” or “pagan songs” on spotify🌛🤍🌜

gratitude ✨

this one’s real simple! when you wake up, thank the universe that you got to live to see another day. you can even journal it. breathe in the air and think of how grateful you are that you’re able to do that. soak in the sun’s rays and feel the heat. 🌞🌼💛

final words...

it’s ok to take breaks! nothing wrong with that. it’s human. appreciate yourself as a person. remember, you are magickal and divine no matter how many burnouts you have. burnouts happen to nearly everyone and it’s completely normal! 🍄🐥🌈

Witchy Tip: Write

You don’t need to be Shakespeare to write powerful spells, rituals, and prayers. However, practicing writing (free word association, creative, poetry, brainstorming, etc.) can only make you better at it!

Furthermore, no one else necessarily has to see or hear your writing. It is okay if the only audience is Deity or Spirit.

Book of Mirrors

A journal for reflection and introspection usually geared toward your practice.

It can be a mundane journal, or drafting journal for spellwork and ritual.

Can also be used to ventilate your worries.

A Book of Mirrors can be used as a place to informally compile notes, sketches, and rough draft writing.

Book of Shadows

Can include a wide variety of information pertinent to your particular practice (s). Including charts, information on esbats and sabbats, inventory of crystals you own, herbology, recipes, and many other types of entries.

Could be described as a sort of personal, magickal scrapbook, though it need not be decorative.

Can contain developed information on topics that interest you.

Digital Journals/ Blogs

Can serve you as a mobile version of a Book of Mirrors, Book of Shadows, Grimoire, etc.

Easily shareable when you are networking with other practitioners and exchanging knowledge.

Grimoire

Can be viewed as a more formal presentation of developed spells, rituals, prayers, blessings, etc.

May be very personal, especially if you are a solitary practitioner.

Bullet Journal

Great for daily writers.

Can help you track progress in whatever areas of your life you are working to improve.

Can be as informal as a Book of Mirrors if you desire.

Helps you organize and plan.

Don’t worry about making mistakes…

Especially if you are writing informally. Not everything about your craft has to be somber and ceremonial!

Feel free to emulate your poetry heroes or simply express your worries.

If you want to deepen your practice, you might consider writing in your favorite way.

It can be a great way to keep your mind sharp.

I need to get back into writing, I need to start focusing on myself and my craft again 💫
