Living Magickally: A Month-by-Month Guide for a Magick-Filled Year
Witches can weave magick into every day, week, and month of the year. With that in mind, here’s your guide to living more magickally throughout the year.
-
Embodying the Magick of Yule
Yule encourages us to look back on the past year, the magick we created, and the manifestations that we made, as well as the aspects of ourselves that we can release and let “die.” By embodying the magick of Yule, we can create a more sacred connection with our spirit and the season. -
Samhain for the Busy Witch
Samhain occurs on October 31 – the same day as Halloween! The energy of Samhain occurs the week before and the week after October 31, so don’t feel too much pressure to practice your rituals on the date if you’ve got other things going on in your life. -
Lammas for the Busy Witch
Celebrating the sabbats is easy, even if you’re a busy witch! Today we’re talking about Lammas aka Lughnasadh. This is the first harvest festival of the pagan Wheel of the Year. Let’s dive in!
-
Litha for the Busy Witch
Litha’s energy is fun, fiery, and celebratory. This sabbat is about the divine masculine, which supports confidence, motivation, and courage.
-
Beltane for the Busy Witch
Welcome to Beltane! Back in the day, Beltane was a two-day celebration, starting the night before the sabbat. As fun as this sounds, most of us don’t have time for a 24-hour party. So let’s dive into the busy witch version!
-
Ostara for the Busy Witch
You’re a busy witch and may not have time for a full-blown ritual. So, here’s how to celebrate Ostara quickly while still honoring the sabbat properly! Ostara falls on or around March 20th on the day of the Spring Equinox. On this day, both day and night are of equal lengths. After the Equinox, the days will continue to get longer and the nights shorter.
-
Imbolc for the Busy Witch
Welcome to the season of Imbolc! This sabbat celebrates renewal, rejuvenation, and a return of the light. It’s a soft time when things are beginning to stir after the sleepy, cold winter. -
Lammas: the First Harvest
Samhain, Yule, Beltane – some sabbats get all the attention! And others, namely Lammas, tend to be forgotten about. Maybe it’s because we’re all caught up in summer vacations or preparing for kids to go back to school. Whatever the reason, we tend to skip over Lammas, but it’s just as important as the rest of the celebrations throughout the year. After this, it may just become one of your favorite sabbats to observe! -
Brigid: Goddess of Fire & Inspiration
Brigid is the Celtic Goddess of Fire and Inspiration. Her magick centers around sacred fire, healing water, and creative inspiration. She’s a nurturing triple goddess, and you can call on her when you need help finding motivation, protection, healing, wisdom, and more.

Celebrating Imbolc – A Return To The Light
Spring is coming – can you feel it? Imbolc marks the half-way point between the Winter Solstice and the Spring Equinox, and it’s a celebration of the return to life. In the Celtic seasonal calendar, it also marks the start of the lambing season – when the lambs are born for spring. It is a time of celebration, renewal, and hope. -
