“Newton was not the first of the age of reason. He was the last of the magicians, the last of the Babylonians and Sumerians, the last great mind that looked out on the visible and intellectual world with the same eyes as those who began to build our intellectual inheritance rather less than 10,000 years ago.”

- John Maynard Keynes (Newton, The Man)

Planetary Days

For example, if performing a working during the planetary hour for Jupiter, one could use the information listed under Thursday, the day that corresponds to Jupiter.  This is not a complete list.

🔔 BELLS IN WITCHCRAFT 🔔

Bells might just be the earliest form of superstitious practise that I remember. My baba attached three sakura-patterned suzu bells on my schoolbag as a kid, purportedly for good luck and protection from evil spirits – and Japan is far from the only place to have associated bells and bellringing with mystic practise. They’ve been used worldwide to ward off evil and carry messages – and in a more metaphysical sense, sound is the movement of energy through substance. Sounds have the potential to work powerful magic.

Here are some of the ways I’ve found utilising bells to be helpful to my craft. While I’m more likely to use traditional suzu type bells, your own background, path and culture will likely have its own types of bells – and as ever, bells can be ornate antiques or they can be a bottle cap in a tin can, as long as they’re used with intent.

GETTING STARTED

🔔 As with so much of the craft, if you’re new to the witching bell, it’s a matter of exploration and experimentation. Get a “feel” for what works for you and the specific bell you’re using.

🔔 It’s good practise to ensure that the bell itself is cleansed, warded and protected – you don’t want anything nasty tapping into that power. All witching tools can do as much harm as good, intentional or accidental.

🔔 A good way to begin incorporating bells into your craft is infuse them into any typical ritual that you’re comfortable with, or even just a prayer or moment of contemplation at your altar if you have one.

🔔 Give the bell a soft ring while focusing on the energy it’ll ripple and move, try to track the movements it creates and what it touches. The tone it’s sending out.  The most primal and versatile use of the bell – and what many of the below come down to – is simply another manner of physically channelling energy, giving it shape and direction.

PROTECTION

🔔 “Passive” bells such as windchimes or small bells attached to belongings you don’t want disturbed are a starting point. They will scare off some forms of spirit all by themselves, especially if appropriately blessed, charmed or enchanted. Or cursed.

🔔 Gently tolling can draw energy into a ward or circle you are forming and enforce its protective properties, or for a simple cleanse, letting the sound travel to every corner of the area you are protecting. It’s a little more “cutting” than a smoke or incense cleansing, which I view as more “gentle” forms of cleansing. Both have their uses.

🔔 Harder tolling is, in my opinion, one of the most powerful ways in which to enforce a banishing – however, it’s best to you know what you’re doing with the bell before you go bashing it about.

DISCERNMENT

🔔 Bells can have quite the effect on your perception and awareness. Ringing and then stopping, listening to the silence left in its wake, can bring you new perceptions or make things you’d previously missed obvious. Let it attune your mind and senses to something new, whether that’s in your thoughts or something with a little more presence. Visualise travelling with the sound, taking heed of the energies it touches and disturbs. Take note of the echoes – you’ll learn what they mean with experience.

🔔 A set of windchimes can let you know if something is passing through or if there’s some unusual energy afoot – and, yes, it may also just be letting you know that it’s a particularly breezy day, but that’s witchcraft for you.

CONJURING

🔔 This can be as simple as calling good energies to witching tools, spell jars, tarot decks, crystals, altars and shrines, your favourite teddy bar, anything at all.

🔔 With spirit work, it can truly help to magnify your “calling”. This can range from gently bringing your latest offering to the attention of your friendly neighbourhood house spirit – all the way to trying to catch the attention of something more. Be mindful, however. As I said, I consider bells pretty powerful tools and a call that’s too loud is not good spirit work practise for the spirit worker’s own sake. It can really help coax something out of hiding if you’re gentle with it, though.

COMMUNING

🔔 Some use bells to mark the beginning and end of a ritual, and I’ve read that in Wiccan practise an altar bell can be used to invoke the Goddess, although as a non-Wiccan, I’ll welcome corrections on that if I’m wrong.

🔔 In my experience, very simple forms of communication via bell work a lot better than anything too complex – “come here” and “stay away” have already been covered, and other than that they can serve as greetings or signals of a start or end of some practise or ritual, the opening or closing of a door, etc.

🔔 They can also serve as a warning or a litmus test regarding spirits, a signalling of your presence and awareness, lack of fear, or willingness to defend – but be prepared to deal with whatever responses these garner.

BINDING

🔔 Bindings are where you most often see that famous (clockwise) circular motion of the bell, embodying the meaning of the spell. This can be a simple binding to seal a spell or charm or enchantment, or a spirit-binding.

🔔 Personally, spirit-binding is something I do as little as possible simply due to my beliefs holding the autonomy of spirits in very high regard. However, sometimes situations arise that call for it, and I’m aware that not all bindings are unwilling. Far from it – and some spirits are dangerous when unbound.

🔔 As an animist (believing that all things, including inanimate objects, contain a spirit of their own), I consider gently nudging a spirit back into its physical form a sort of semi-binding, and that can be useful.

I’ll leave you all with a note that I am an urban apartment-dwelling witch through and through, so I understand that we can’t all be jangling away at all hours. I myself have a glass windchime in my front window that makes a distinct but muted sound when disturbed by passers-through, and highly recommend wooden ones also. I also only use my small and relatively quiet suzu bell for my crafting – one given to me by my baba herself.

Feel free to add any of your own findings, and happy tolling.

Losing your Witchy Spark - and getting it back.

Warning - This is a long post.

For days, weeks, even months you might feel unmotivated to practice. Thats okay.

My witchcraft can feel off and on, and there are times where I haven’t casted a spell or read a witchy book in a week. I lose my witchy touch, my spark. The passion I have for witchcraft. Despite all of this, I am still a witch.

What is a witchy spark?

The fuel to practice, motivation, desire. Involving yourself into your practice consistently and whole heartedly. Feeling the magic run through you, but sometimes this motivation is lost.

How do we lose our spark?

Our ability to practice is affected by everything around us. Closeted witches, low spoon witches, witches with mental illness and witches going through life issues. All of these affect our craft.

We feel overwhelmed, lost, tired, and exhausted. We no longer feel our magic, or the desire to cast. This doesnt mean we do not want to be a witch, but that at the time we simply feel like we lost our touch.

Sometimes we get so caught up in life that we even forget about witchcraft.

We are still witches.

Beginners, don’t be afraid to put life first. Things can get hectic, and at times you might have to put aside your craft to take care of yourself and others. You are still a witch.

Pictured above is part of my altar that I just set up yesterday after having been moved in for months. I have been feeling overwhelmed by school, my mental illness, and my family to a degree that made practicing witchcraft difficult. I lost my spark and did not practice for months. Slowly, im gaining my motivation to practice again.

Here are some things that can help.

• Looking at tumblr - this might sound basic, but it can really help. Looking at low spoon spells and other witches doing their thing can really help

• Downloading other witchy apps - Amino offers many witchcraft groups such as “Pagans and Witches”, that feature lots of spells, chatrooms, and a good community. You can find other apps like tarot decks and runes to help spark some simple practice.

• Picking up an easy book - Skimming through easy to read books can help motivate one to slowly easing themselves back into their witchcraft. Pictured above are some books with spells in an easy bullet point format as well as information that’s easy to read. Supermaket Sabbats really helped me feel motivated to begin reading more witchy books again. (The other book is The Good Witch’s Guide).

• Doing a daily card pull - Or even just being near your deck. Sleeping with it, shuffling it and doing one card pulls help build confidence and desire to beginning spreads. (Deck pictured above is the Linestrider’s Tarot).

• Sit at your altar - Or somewhere you feel at peace and connected to with your magic. This is calming and can help you when you feel overwhelmed. Just taking a break and meditating at your altar is magic.

• Take a bath - Something simple, even if its just lighting a candle, using a bathbomb, or listening to music. Use it as a time to cleanse yourself, and wash the negativity off. Making a clean slate.

• Always take care of yourself - Even if its hard, even if you want to devote yourself entirely to magic or anything else, take care of yourself. Put your life first. You will still be a witch.

Whether you’re a baby witch, an old witch, a closeted witch, or an open witch, we all lose motivation at some point. We also always get it back. We are always witches.

I hope this post helps you into transitioning back into practice if you ever lose your spark.

How to return to the craft

Links updated May, 2021 (please inform me of broken links via askbox!)

[witch-kid]

Non-wiccan, low-energy ways to connect to nature, and feel stronger in your craft.

+ Take a walk in a forest. Find somewhere to sit, close your eyes and feel the life thrumming through all the living things around you. You are not the only living thing in the forest. Find the biggest tree you can and politely sit on one of its roots. 

+ Walk on the beach. Barefoot, preferably. Feel the sand between your toes and the water rushing over your feet. Breathe in the scents of salt and sea and wood. Close your eyes and feel the power of the sea, the gentleness of the sun.

+ Hike up a mountain. Sit on a solid piece of stone and reflect on its age and all the people it has seen, and all the people it will see after you are gone. Do not feel insignificant. Even though you are one of many, if any stone in the center of the mountain fell, the whole structure would be less stable.

+ Go to the seaside at night. Look up at the moon and feel its power over the tides and sea, feel it tame the wild waters that no human can control. Try to capture that powerful feeling inside you.

+ Sit on a riverside. Listen to the water rushing by. Think of all the places it has been and will be, how it has been along long before you, and will exist long after. Dip your feet in the water and feel the current rush around your toes. Imagine your negative thoughts and energy drifting away with the gurgling water.

+ Relax by a pond or lake. Look at the sun and sky and clouds reflected in its surface and imagine it a well of magickal energy. Draw from it, and bask in the scene’s serenity.

+ Stand by your houseplants, channel your magick and funnel it along the connection between you and your plants. Feel their life force and feed it. You are a witch, and even if you feel different sometimes, nothing can change that if you don’t want it to.
