#witches make magic

Welcome Witches to Magical Mondays!

Given the podcast is all about making magic our own, how to let the FULL scope of our identities show in how being Witch manifests in our lives and in our practice, Monday's are where I want to give you all space to figure out what that looks like.

So, this week's episode is on grounding, centering, and the upcoming Beltane celebrations.

So for Magical Monday, give some of these ideas a shot and see how they do for you.

• Light a candle or LED light and name one thing you’re letting go of… then one thing you’re inviting in for Beltane.

• Look at yourself in a mirror (or camera) and speak gently to your reflection:

"I am here. I am centered. I am whole in this moment."

• Infuse water with herbs, flower petals, or intention to annoint yourself or your altar on Beltane.

• Take a short, intentional walk, gaze out the window, or watch nature videos/look at nature pictures.

• Fill a jar, pouch, or bowl with objects that help you feel safe and present — herbs, affirmations, crystals, sensory textures, etc.

I'll be covering more ideas on Thursday's podcast (which you can catch up on here: https://shadowsandblooms.captivate.fm/listen) about grounding, centering, and the magic of Beltane.

And don't forget - every one of these practices is adaptable to your own unique abilities and comfort. If you need ideas on how to make more "typical" practices work for you in this context, feel free to reach out!

Let me know in the comments which ones you've tried, how they worked for you, and if you have any suggestions of your own!

It's Monday and Mondays suck, but that doesn't mean you can't make some magic happen!

Welcome Witches to Magical Mondays!

Given the podcast is all about making magic our own, how to let the FULL scope of our identities show in how being Witch manifests in our lives and in our practice, Monday's are where I want to give you all space to figure out what that looks like.

So, last week's episode was on eclipse season, and I discussed a bit about the energy of the eclipse can be used to bring things into alignment, reveal things that have been hidden, or break through obstacles standing in your way.

So for Magical Monday, lets put our own special spin on that! Give one or more of these a try, or use them to inspire your own magic, and see what happens!

I did cover these in the last episode (which you can catch up on here: https://shadowsandblooms.captivate.fm/listen), but hopefully this will give you a little more inspiration and motivation to work with them.

• Use the divination tool of your choice to help find out how you can use the energy of alignment to better manifest your full identity in your witchcraft

• Create a ritual or spell candle to burn when you're struggling to find balance between the way your mind works and the way you want to exist in the world

• Meditation to better understand how you can use your witchcraft to move through the eclipse energy more fluidly

And don't forget - every one of these practices is adaptable to your own unique abilities and comfort. If you need ideas on how to make more "typical" practices work for you in this context, feel free to reach out!

Let me know in the comments which ones you've tried, how they worked for you, and if you have any suggestions of your own!

It's Monday and Monday's suck, but that doesn't mean you can't make some magic happen!
