Witchy Sh*t to do During the Season of the Witch

As the leaves turn golden and the air gets crisp, witches everywhere know that the Season of the Witch has arrived. This magickal time, stretching from the fall equinox to Yule, is a period filled with unique energies and opportunities for both fun and introspection. In our latest podcast episode, we dive deep into what makes this season so special and how you can make the most of it.

First and foremost, this is the time when the veil between worlds is at its thinnest. This means that activities like spirit communication, divination, and ancestor magick are more potent and accessible. If you've ever been curious about connecting with the other side, now is the perfect time to explore. Visit a graveyard, set up an ancestor altar, or even try your hand at using a spirit board. The possibilities are endless, and the energies are ripe for exploration.

But the Season of the Witch isn't just about serious magickal practices; it's also about having fun and embracing the cozy vibes of fall. Typical autumn activities like visiting a pumpkin patch, navigating a corn maze, or picking apples are not only enjoyable but also deeply magickal. Pumpkins, apples, and corn all have their own unique properties that can enhance your magickal workings. For instance, carving a Jack O'Lantern is a traditional way to ward off evil spirits, making it a perfect blend of fun and protection.

As we move deeper into the season, the nights grow longer, and the need for self-care becomes more apparent. This is a time for introspection, shadow work, and rest. The darker months can bring about seasonal depression, and it's crucial to take care of your mental, emotional, and spiritual health. Indulge in soul-nourishing foods like soups, stews, and baked goods. These comfort foods not only nourish your body but also ground your energy, helping you stay balanced and optimistic.

Don't forget to get witchcrafty! Use this time to create protection items for your home, like crystal grids, pentacle wreaths, or witch bells. Gather fallen leaves and sticks for crafts or your altar, and if you're into knitting or crocheting, infuse your creations with cozy and protective intentions. These small acts of creativity can make a big difference in your magickal practice and overall well-being.

Finally, remember that rest is magickal. In a society that values constant productivity, it's easy to feel guilty for taking time to relax. But rest is essential for maintaining your energy and effectiveness in all areas of life. So, get cozy, watch your favorite witchy movies, read those spooky books, and drink your pumpkin spice lattes with pride. Embrace the season and all the magick it has to offer.
