L'Art et la Manière @nimi-ariel - Tumblr Blog

Comme expliqué dans ce post, je ne me considère pas comme une sorcière, et je n'appelle pas ma pratique de la magie.

Néanmoins, il y a trop peu de pratiquant(e)s français(e)s sur Tumblr pour que je puisse me permettre de choisir mes mots. C'est pourquoi on peut retrouver ces mots dans mes posts et mes tags, pour que je puisse retrouver mes compatriotes.

Enjoy ✌🏾

Grimoire users/makers, what less-conventional things have you included that turned out to be very useful or helpful?

jasper-pagan-witch

ENVELOPES! I started gluing envelopes into pages for little dipshit notes that I didn't feel like transcribing and it's so good.

will-o-the-witch

I actually really love that. It also sounds helpful for just keeping the associations for various materials in one place while still moving forward with other categories. Like just add the new herb into the herb file instead of adding a whole new page apart from the herb section in between the crystals and planets or whatever

Rituals That Don't Require a Shopping List

Hello Beautiful Souls,

You find a spell that's perfect for what you need. You read through it excited. Then you get to the ingredients:

"Dried mugwort harvested under a full moon, dragon's blood resin, a lodestone, seven white candles, frankincense essential oil, spring water collected at dawn, a piece of moldavite, hand-carved cedar wand, and organic rose petals."

You have none of these things. You close the tab.

Here's the truth nobody wants to say out loud: most published spells are written to sell you things.

They're elaborate so they look impressive. They require rare ingredients so you'll buy books, visit shops, order online. They make witchcraft seem like it requires a full pantry of expensive supplies.

But the most powerful magic humans have ever done was performed with NOTHING. Or with whatever was immediately available. Because magic isn't in the ingredients—it's in YOU.

Let's talk about rituals you can do right now, exactly where you are, with absolutely nothing but yourself.

The Foundation: You Are the Tool

Before we get into specific rituals, understand this:

Your body is a magical tool.

Your breath moves energy

Your voice carries power

Your hands direct intention

Your mind focuses will

Your heart generates emotion (which is energy)

Your feet connect you to earth

You have built-in magical capacities:

Visualization (everyone can imagine, even if you're not "visual")

Intention (you can focus on what you want)

Will (you can direct your mental energy)

Emotion (you can generate feeling states)

Awareness (you can notice energy shifts)

Breath (always available, always powerful)

Every ritual below uses only these inherent capacities. Nothing external required.

Protection Rituals (No Supplies Needed)

The Breath Shield

Stand or sit comfortably

Close your eyes

Breathe in slowly, visualizing drawing in light/energy/power

Hold for a moment

Breathe out, visualizing that energy expanding around you as a protective bubble

Repeat 5-10 times until the shield feels solid

Know that you're protected

Why it works: Your breath is your life force. Directing it with intention creates real energetic boundaries.

The Mirror Skin

Close your eyes

Visualize your skin becoming reflective, like a mirror

See any negative energy or ill intent hitting your skin and bouncing back to its source

Feel yourself impermeable

Say (aloud or in your head): "What's sent to harm me returns to sender. I am untouchable."

Go about your day knowing your "mirror skin" is active

Why it works: Strong visualization + clear intention = effective magic. Your subconscious doesn't distinguish between strongly imagined and real.

The Sacred Circle (Body Edition)

Stand and face East

Point your finger (or just your attention) and slowly turn in a complete circle

As you turn, visualize a ring of light/fire/energy forming around you

Complete the circle

You're standing in sacred, protected space

When done, reverse the circle to close it, or just step out

Why it works: You're claiming space as sacred through intention and movement. No tools needed.

The Alarm System

Sit quietly

Visualize energetic tripwires or alarms around your space (home, room, personal bubble)

Set the intention: "These alarms alert me to any harmful energy or entities"

Trust that you'll feel/know if something crosses your boundary

Check and reset periodically

Why it works: Your intuition is real. Setting conscious intention to notice threats makes you more aware of subtle energies.

Cleansing Rituals (Just You)

The Breath Cleanse

Sit or stand

Imagine everything you want to release as dark smoke inside your body

Take a deep breath in

Exhale forcefully, visualizing all that dark smoke leaving your body

Repeat until you feel clear

Take one more deep breath of clean, bright energy to fill the space

Why it works: Breath work is proven to shift your nervous system. Adding visualization makes it magical.

The Visualization Shower

Even if you're nowhere near water:

Close your eyes

Imagine standing under a waterfall of pure white light

Feel it pouring over you, washing away all negativity, stress, heaviness

See it all washing down and away, absorbed harmlessly by the earth

Stand in this shower until you feel clean

Open your eyes

Why it works: Your body responds to visualization similarly to real experience. The cleansing is real even if the water isn't.

The Shake-Off

Stand up

Literally shake your body—arms, legs, torso, head (gently)

Shake for 30-60 seconds

As you shake, intend that you're shaking off all stuck energy, negativity, stress

When you stop, feel lighter

Stamp your feet to ground

Why it works: Physical movement releases stuck energy. This is somatic therapy + magical intention.

The Grounding Drain

Sit or stand, feet flat on floor

Visualize roots growing from your feet deep into the earth

Imagine any negativity, stress, or unwanted energy draining down through those roots

Let the earth absorb and neutralize it (Earth is infinite and can handle it)

When you feel empty of the bad stuff, draw clean earth energy back up through the roots

Pull the roots back in

Why it works: Grounding is foundational energy work. Earth is the ultimate neutralizer.

Manifestation/Attraction Rituals (No Materials)

The Future Self Meditation

Sit comfortably, close your eyes

Visualize yourself already having what you want

Don't just see it—FEEL it. How does it feel in your body to have this?

What does success/love/abundance feel like?

Spend 5 minutes in that feeling state

Open your eyes, carrying that feeling with you

Act from that feeling throughout your day

Why it works: Manifestation works through embodying the frequency of what you want. This is core manifestation magic.

The Spoken Intention

Speak your intention out loud, clearly and specifically

Say it in present tense as if it's already true: "I am confident" not "I will be confident"

Say it with conviction (fake it if necessary)

Repeat it 3, 7, or 9 times (traditional powerful numbers)

Speak it into reality

Why it works: Words are spells (the etymology of "spell" is literally related to "to speak"). Speaking creates vibration. Vibration affects reality.

The Gratitude Charge

Think of something you want to manifest

Now generate the feeling of intense gratitude AS IF you already have it

"Thank you for [the thing], it's perfect, I'm so grateful"

Feel that gratitude in your chest

Hold it for a full minute

Release it, trusting it's done

Why it works: Gratitude is a high vibration. Acting as if it's already done and being grateful for it creates powerful manifestation energy.

The Walking Meditation of Becoming

Go for a walk (anywhere)

As you walk, imagine you're already the person who has what you want

Walk like them, hold yourself like them, think like them

Fully inhabit that version of yourself for the entire walk

By the end, you've practiced being that person

Why it works: Your body doesn't know the difference between practice and reality. You're literally training yourself into the new version.

Banishing Rituals (Nothing Required)

The Pointed Finger Banishment

Point your finger (or whole arm) at what you're banishing (a person, a thought, a situation—can be symbolic/distant)

Say firmly: "You have no power here. You are banished from my life/space/mind. Leave NOW."

Visualize whatever it is dissolving, leaving, disappearing

Drop your arm

It's done

Why it works: Pointing directs energy. Clear verbal command + visualization + conviction = effective banishing.

The Mental Cutting

Visualize the person/situation you're banishing

See the energetic cords connecting you to them

Use your hand in a karate-chop motion and visualize cutting those cords

See them severing completely

See the person/situation drifting away

Seal the cut ends with light

You're free

Why it works: Cord-cutting is energetic surgery. You can do it without tools—your intention is the blade.

The Reversal Breath

For sending back negative energy someone sent to you:

Breathe in, gathering their negative energy

Hold it for a moment, transforming it to neutral

Breathe out, sending it back to them (neutralized or still negative, your choice)

Say: "Return to sender"

Repeat until you feel it's all gone back

Why it works: Energy can be redirected. Your breath and intention are enough to reverse the flow.

The Firm "No"

Sometimes the most powerful banishing is simple:

Think of or face what you're banishing

Say "NO" out loud (or in your head if you can't speak)

Say it with every ounce of conviction you have

Mean it completely

That's it. No is a complete sentence and a complete spell.

Why it works: Clear boundary. Absolute refusal. Your will asserted. That's magic.

Healing Rituals (Zero Supplies)

The Light Body Scan

Lie down or sit comfortably

Close your eyes

Starting at your head, visualize healing light slowly moving down your body

Wherever you feel pain, tightness, or discomfort, let the light linger there

See it dissolving the pain, healing the wound (physical or energetic)

Continue all the way to your toes

Rest in the light for a moment

Open your eyes

Why it works: Body scan meditation + visualization + healing intention. This is somatic healing.

The Heart Breath

For emotional healing:

Put your hand over your heart

Breathe slowly and deeply

With each breath, imagine breathing directly into your heart

See your heart filling with warm, gentle light

Let it heal, soften, open

Continue for 5-10 minutes

This works on heartbreak, grief, emotional wounds

Why it works: Heart-focused breathing is proven to regulate emotions. Adding intention makes it magical healing.

The Pain Transfer

If you have physical pain:

Focus on the pain

Visualize it as a color, shape, or object

Imagine gathering it all up into a ball

Now imagine throwing that ball far away from you

Watch it disappear

Check—is the pain less? (Often it is)

Why it works: Pain has an energetic component. Moving the energy can reduce the sensation.

The Conversation With Your Body

Close your eyes

Pick a part of your body that hurts or needs healing

Imagine that body part as a being you can talk to

Ask it: "What do you need? What are you trying to tell me?"

Listen for the answer (intuition, feeling, word, image)

Thank it for communicating

Ask: "How can I help you heal?"

Listen again

Commit to doing what it asks

Why it works: Your body has wisdom. This is deep healing magic disguised as simple conversation.

Divination (No Deck, No Tools)

Body Dowsing

Stand up

State a yes/no question

Say "Show me yes"—notice which way your body sways (forward, back, left, right)

Say "Show me no"—notice which way your body sways

Now ask your actual question

Your body will sway toward the answer

Trust it

Why it works: Your body knows things your conscious mind doesn't. Ideomotor response is real.

The Coin Flip (Without a Coin)

Flip an imaginary coin in your mind for a yes/no question

Note which answer you're hoping for while it's in the air

THAT'S your answer

The coin flip just revealed what you actually want

Why it works: Your gut knows. The coin just makes it conscious.

Dream Incubation

Before sleep, clearly state a question

Say: "I ask for guidance on [question] in my dreams tonight"

Sleep

Write down whatever you remember upon waking, even if it seems nonsensical

The answer is usually there symbolically

Why it works: Your subconscious processes during sleep. Requesting specific guidance directs that processing.

The First Thought Answer

Close your eyes

Ask your question clearly

Open your eyes and notice the very first thing you see or think

That's your answer (interpret symbolically)

Don't second-guess

Why it works: Divination is accessing information beyond conscious awareness. First impressions bypass overthinking.

Bibliomancy (Book You Already Own)

Hold any book

Think of your question

Open randomly to a page

Point randomly at the page

Read what you're pointing at

That's your answer (interpret as needed)

Why it works: Synchronicity. Random isn't actually random when intention is involved.

Devotional Practices (Deity Work With Nothing)

Prayer (Just Talk)

You don't need an altar, offerings, or perfect words

Just speak to your deity/spirit

Out loud or in your head

Tell them what's happening, what you need, what you're grateful for

Listen for response (feeling, thought, sign)

That's devotion

Why it works: Relationship is built through communication. Deities don't require fancy setups—they require genuine connection.

Offering Your Time/Attention

Sit quietly

Focus completely on your deity for 5-10 minutes

Think about them, feel their presence, meditate on their qualities

Your undivided attention IS the offering

They value this

Why it works: In our distracted world, focused attention is precious. It's a legitimate offering.

Embodiment Practice

Research your deity's qualities

Spend a day (or hour) embodying those qualities

Act as they would act

Make decisions as they would

You're honoring them through imitation

This deepens relationship

Why it works: Becoming like them is the highest form of honoring.

The Listening Meditation

Sit quietly

Speak your deity's name (or just think of them)

Then be SILENT

Listen—not with your ears, with your whole being

Notice thoughts, feelings, images that arise

This is communication

Thank them when done

Why it works: Most people talk at deities. Listening creates actual relationship.

Energy Work (Body Only)

The Ball of Energy

Rub your hands together vigorously for 30 seconds

Slowly pull them apart about 6 inches

Feel the buzzing, magnetic sensation between them

That's energy you just generated

Play with it—push hands together and pull apart, feel it compress and expand

You can direct this energy for healing, charging objects, or spellwork

Why it works: This is tangible, feelable energy. You just proved to yourself that you can generate and manipulate energy with no tools.

Chakra Breathing (No Fancy Knowledge Required)

Sit comfortably

Breathe into your belly (lower abdomen) for a few breaths—this is your root

Breathe into your lower belly (below navel)—sacral chakra

Breathe into your solar plexus (below ribs)

Breathe into your chest (heart)

Breathe into your throat

Breathe into your forehead (third eye)

Breathe into the top of your head (crown)

Breathe into your whole body

Why it works: Breath directs energy and awareness. You're clearing and activating your energy centers.

The Push-Pull

Hold your hands out, palms facing each other

Push energy from one palm to the other—actually visualize and feel it

Now pull it back

Push and pull, creating a flow between your hands

Feel the current of energy

This is how you'll eventually push energy into spells, healing, objects

Why it works: You're training your ability to direct energy consciously. Fundamental skill.

Aura Brushing

Use your hands to "brush" your aura (the space a few inches from your body)

Start at your head and brush downward

Shake off your hands after each brush (releasing what you picked up)

Brush your whole body's energetic field

You're cleaning your aura without any tools

Why it works: Your aura is real and can be affected through intention and touch (even without physical contact).

Specific Situation Rituals

Job Interview Confidence (Bathroom, 2 Minutes Before)

Go to bathroom

Look in mirror

Make strong eye contact with yourself

Say: "I am confident. I am capable. I am exactly what they need."

Visualize yourself in the interview, speaking clearly, impressing them

Take three power breaths (deep belly breaths)

Walk in

Why it works: Pre-performance ritual + affirmation + visualization = real confidence boost.

Sleep/Nightmare Protection (In Bed)

Lying in bed, visualize your bedroom filled with protective light

See guardians/angels/protective spirits at each corner (whatever you believe in)

Say: "Only love and peace enter here. All else is turned away. My sleep is protected."

Feel safe

Sleep

Why it works: Your subconscious responds to pre-sleep suggestions. Setting protection before sleep actually helps.

Social Anxiety Shield (Right Before the Event)

Close your eyes briefly

Visualize a comfortable bubble around you

This bubble lets love and genuine connection in

But deflects judgment, negativity, and drain

You're protected but not closed off

Enter the social situation carrying this bubble

Why it works: Visualization creates psychological and energetic protection. You'll actually feel less anxious.

Grief Release (Anywhere, Anytime)

When grief hits:

Don't suppress it

Find a private moment if possible (bathroom, car, wherever)

Let yourself cry/feel it for 60 seconds (set a timer if it helps to know it's bounded)

As you cry/feel, visualize the grief leaving your body as water or smoke

After 60 seconds (or when it naturally ends), take three deep breaths

Wash your face if you can

You just processed and released some of the grief

Why it works: Grief needs release. Creating a ritual around it makes the release more complete and honors the feeling.

Why This Matters

You might be reading this thinking, "But I want the candles and the herbs and the tools. That's part of what makes it feel special."

And that's valid! Tools are great. Aesthetics matter. Physical items help focus intention.

But you should never feel like you can't practice because you lack supplies.

You should never feel like a "lesser" witch because you can't afford ingredients.

You should never let a shopping list stop you from doing magic.

The witch who practices with nothing but their body and will is just as powerful—often MORE powerful—than the witch surrounded by expensive tools.

Because they know where the real magic lives: in them.

Tools amplify. But YOU are the source.

Start here. Start with what you have, which is yourself.

Learn these rituals. Practice them. Prove to yourself that you don't need anything external to be magical.

And then, if you want, add the tools. But you'll add them knowing they're optional enhancements, not requirements.

You've always been enough.

You've always had everything you need.

You are the magic.

Now go practice.

Blessed Be.

How to begin a sustainable way of life

This is a draft of something I've been writing for a couple months. It is mainly focused on the culture of the USA. Feel free to repost or otherwise share, with or without credit.

Do not tell people what to do—help them do it!

Give the gift of relief from being forced to engage in society’s unsustainable ways of life.

“People need to eat more plant-based foods.” ->Talk about your favorite recipes, give others recipes, cook for them, and grow vegetables and plants in your garden and give them away as gifts.

“People need to repair their clothes.” -> Offer to repair others’ clothes, and teach people how to repair their clothes.

“People need to buy less clothes.” -> Give them old clothes that you don’t want, help them repair their clothes

“People need to buy less plastic stuff.” -> Learn to make things that can serve the same purpose, such as baskets, and give them as gifts. Let people borrow things you own so they don’t have to buy their own.

“People need to stop using leafblowers and other gas-guzzling machinery.” -> Offer to rake the leaves. You can use them as compost in your own garden.

“People need to be more educated about nature.”-> Learn about nature yourself. Tell people about nature. Be open about your love of creatures such as snakes, spiders, and frogs. Do not show awareness that this could be strange. You are not obligated to quiet down your enthusiasm for creepy crawlies to demonstrate awareness that it is weird. Point out at every opportunity how these animals are beneficial.

“People need to use cars less.” -> Offer rides to others whenever you must go somewhere. Whenever you are about to go to the store, ask your neighbor or your friend who lives along the way, “Is there anything you need from the store?”

You cannot control others’ behaviors, but you can free them from being controlled.

If you think to yourself, “But this would be so difficult to do!” ask yourself WHY? Why does your society coerce you into less sustainable ways of living, forcing you to consume excessively? After thinking about this, consider that it is less simple and easy than you thought to make more sustainable choices, so why would you judge others for not doing it?

Do not act alone—act with others!

Environmentally friendly behaviors that can be done alone, without collaborating with or consulting another person, are the least powerful of all. Whenever an “environmentally friendly” behavior is suggested, figure out “How can I give this as a gift?” or “How can I make this possible on the level of a whole community?”

“Personal choices” do not work because every single person has to make them individually. If you are focused on making your own personal choice, you are not focused on others. If you are not focused on others, you are not helping them. If nobody is helping each other, most people won’t be able to make the “personal choice.”

You inherently share an ecosystem with your neighbors

Start with your neighbors, the people physically close to you. You live on the same patch of land, containing roots from the same plants and trees. You can speak to them face to face without traveling, which means you can easily bring them physical things without using resources to travel.

Always talk to your neighbors and be friendly with them. Offer them favors unprompted and tell them about how your garden is doing. Do not be afraid to be annoying—a slightly annoying neighbor who is helpful, kind, and can be relied upon for a variety of favors or in times of need is a necessary and inevitable part of a good community. If you make the effort to be present in somebody’s life, they will have to put up with you on some occasions, but that is just life. We cannot rely on each other if we do not put up with each other.

Simply spending time with someone influences them for good

Every hour you spend outside with your neighbor is an hour your neighbor doesn’t spend watching Fox News. Every hour you spend talking with someone and interacting with them in the real world, eating real food and enjoying your real surroundings, is an hour you don’t spend only hearing a curated picture of what reality is like from social media.

Isolation makes it easy for people to become indoctrinated into extremist beliefs. When someone spends more time alone, watching TV, Youtube, or scrolling social media, than they do with others, their concept of what other people are like and what the world is like comes more from social media than real life. TV and online media are meant to influence you in a specific way. Simply restricting the access these influences have to yourself and others is helpful.

A garden is the source of many gifts

If you grow a garden, you can give your neighbors and friends the gift of food, plants, and crafted objects. This is one of the foundational ways to form community. When you give food, you provide support to others. When you give plants, you are encouraging and teaching about gardening. It is even better when you give recipes cooked from things you grew, or items crafted from things you grew. You can also give the gift of knowledge of how to grow these plants, cook these recipes, or craft these objects.

More on gift-giving

Some people are uncomfortable with receiving items or services as gifts. They want to feel like they are giving something back, instead of having obligation to return the favor hanging over them.

It can help to ask a simple favor that can be easily fulfilled. People generally like the feeling of helping someone else.

When you give someone a gift, it can help to say something like “Oh, I have too many of this thing to take care of/store/eat myself! Do you think you could take some?” This makes your neighbor feel like they are helping you.

When allowing others to borrow items, you might not get them back. Don’t worry about that. It just means the item found a place where it was needed the most. You can ask about the item if you think it might have been forgotten, and this can create an opportunity for a second meeting. But don’t press.

If the person you give to insists upon some form of payment, this is a good opportunity to negotiate a trade.

Ask to be given compostable or recyclable things

Ask your neighbor to save compostable scraps, biodegradable cardboard and paper products, and any other items that might be put to use. Use them in your own compost pile. Or, start a compost pile at the edge of the yard where you both can add to it. Remember that “wet” compost like vegetable and fruit bits needs to be mixed with twice as much of “dry” and “woody” compost like cardboard, leaves, small twigs, paper and wood bits.

Use the front yard for gardening

Overcome the cultural norm that the front yard is only decorative. Use the front yard for gardening so you can be seen by others enjoying your garden, and others can witness the demonstration of the possibilities of land. In the front yard, anything you do intentionally with your land can be witnessed. It also makes you a visible presence in your community.

Grow staple foods

Don’t just grow vegetables that cannot be the core component of a meal themselves. Grow potatoes, dry beans, black eyed peas and other nourishing, calorie-dense foods. Grow the ingredients of meals. You could even build a garden around a recipe.

Invite neighbors and friends over to eat food made from things you grew

Be sure to send them home with leftovers.

Grow plants for baskets

Containers are one of the fundamental human needs. If we had more containers, we wouldn’t need plastic so much. You can learn to make baskets, and to grow plants that provide the raw materials for baskets.

If someone rakes their leaves, ask to have the leaves

If you see someone putting leaves in bags, don’t be afraid to ask if you can have the leaves. More likely than not they will be happy to agree.

Collaborate with neighbors to plant things in the no-man’s-land of the property line

In the border land between your neighbor’s yard and your yard, it is almost always just mowed grass because no one can plant anything without it affecting their neighbor. But these border lands add up to a lot of space. It would be much better if you talked to your neighbor about what would be nice to plant there, and together created a plan for that space.

Give others the freedom to wander

Make it clear that you will not get mad if the neighbor’s kids play in your yard or run across it. Invite the neighbors onto your land as much as possible. Tell them they are allowed to spend time in a favored spot whenever they would like.

The power of the hand-made sign

If there is a yard sale, you always know about it because of the hand-drawn signs placed around. Therefore, a cookout or unwanted item exchange can be announced the same way. In rural areas I have seen hand-made signs that say: FIREWOOD or WE BUY GOATS or EGGS. This is one of the few technologies of community that remain in the USA. If someone who looks to buy and sell can put up a hand-made sign, why shouldn’t you?

Religious people or people with strong political opinions like to put signs everywhere. If they have the confidence and courage to do so, why shouldn’t you?

So if there is a message you would like everyone to see, use the simple power of the hand-made sign. Proclaim “BEE FRIENDLY ZONE!” above your pollinator garden with all the confidence of a religious fundamentalist billboard. Announce to the world, “VEGETABLES FREE TO ALL—JUST ASK!” “WE TAKE LEAVES—NO PESTICIDES.” Instead of YARD SALE, or perhaps in conjunction with YARD SALE, you can write, PLANT EXCHANGE or SEED SWAP or CLOTHING SWAP. Who can stop you?

Someone has to do it for society to change

Some of these ideas might be eccentric, strange, or even socially unacceptable, but there is no way to change what is normal except to move against it. Someone has to be weird. It might as well be you.

Why Many Witches Now Prefer Local Plants Over Imported or Trend-Based Herbs

There is a rising preference for place-based plant magic, meaning using herbs and plants that grow naturally in your climate rather than relying on packaged and imported ingredients. This is grounded in both environmental awareness and energetic alignment.

Reasons This Trend Is Growing:

• avoids overharvesting of popular herbs

• reduces misinformation from mass-market sellers

• creates a relationship with land spirits where you live

• aligns magic with your personal ecosystem

• weeds often have stronger magical folklore than store-bought herbs

Examples of Common “Weeds” With Strong Magical Use:

• dandelion: wishes, spirit communication, releasing

• clover: luck, protection, charm bags

• nettle: boundaries, resilience, curse prevention

• plantain: healing, grounding, protection

Local plants respond to your environment which can make magic more personal and effective.
