Everyday Magic for the Cosmic Witch

Here are some cosmic and celestial things you can work into your everyday life to make it a little more magical. You do not need to be a cosmic witch to practice these!

Wear clothing and accessories with symbols of space and the stars. Allow your appearance to remind yourself and everyone of your connection to the cosmos. 

Use a galaxy bath bomb. There are many shops online that sell glittery bath bombs that make your tub look like the night sky. 

Decorate your room with fairy lights. Let the small dots of light remind you of the stars even when you are indoors. 

Check your horoscope every day. Turn to the stars for guidance. 

Put your bed near a window so at night you can gaze at the stars and the moon. 

Notice when the moon is out during the day and remember that she is surrounded by stars even if you cannot see them. 

Wear blue goldstone jewelry or keep a blue goldstone in your pocket to remind you of the stars. 

Decorate your altar with stars. You can use beads or charms or little bottles of glitter.

Study the constellations during the day and see if you can find them at night. Keep up to date on what constellations are visible at the current time of year. 

Keep notes on the moon phases and how they affect your day. You might notice you have more energy on full moons or you feel more anxious when it is waning. See how you are connected with the moon. 

Make moon water nightly and drink it in the morning to prepare yourself for the day. 

Buy moon shaped crystals and use them for your altar or for meditation.

Meditate with selenite to connect to the moon and access your higher self.  

Use labradorite for warding and protection. It is a crystal that can harness the energy of the moon to protect you and your home. 

To purify things using lunar energy, use opal. Place an opal next to your water at night to make it moon water. Opalite is a cheaper alternative but know that it is a manmade stone. 

easy witchy tips i have learnt through my craft

writing a protective sigil inside your door to avoid bad energies to enter your room

making sigils by yourself works better because you pour your intention into it and can be a great way to manifest

white candles can replace any candle when doing candle magick

clear quartz can replace any crystal

when drinking your daily coffee/tea, stir clockwise to manifest something and anti-clockwise to let go of something. repeat your affirmations as you stir

salt baths absorb bad energies so having a salt bath once in a while helps with having your energies balanced

write an affirmation in a bay leaf and burn it to manifest it

always keep iron on you for protection

work with the moon phases and transits to make your spells more powerful

keep a sigil in your phone case for protection/manifestation

after giving an offering to a deity, return it to the earth

drink mugwort tea for lucid dreaming/astral projection (don’t drink it if you are pregnant!!)

before you put a crystal under water or in the sun, research about it

keep a dream journal. it helps for lucid dreaming.

put an amethyst under your pillow to sleep better and to recall your dreams

charge your tarot/oracle cards by putting a crystal on top of them while you are not usinf them

mix moon or sun water with your cosmetics for a quick beauty spell

try to do an activity to connect yourself with each element everyday. (ex: a bath for water, walking barefoot for earth, lighting a candle for fire, singing for air)

make an habit of meditating everyday

sunset on the water, natures shadows, & mystical days in the sun

(from "Spellcrafting")

Hi! I don’t know who this’ll reach, but I’m just trying to dive back into dark/light academia and all to escape from reality in these trying times

Enjoy these doodles I did during class :))

I can’t believe it’s done! I finally finished my session, one more to go and I can move on from college! In my literature program we had our final project to write three short stories that we would put in a collective book and I can finally have it in my hands.

Next step, my next book creation will be entirely done by me!
