Halloween is the perfect holiday to create a spark in my magickal life. It isn't that I had given up magick completely before that. I would light a candle now and then. I'd flip through my witchy books from time to time.
It is just that, my practice wasn't active. And then, October the 31st arrived.
Since that day I have been doing so many spells. I have also been collecting a bit of every herb that I use for both medicine and witchcraft. It is spring. It is the season of all things green. I have gathered poppies, ginkgo leaves, catnip, and more.
I think that the key to getting back into a magical practice is keeping things simple. Instead of worrying about each and every cycle I simply follow the cycles of the seasons, the sun, and the moon. And the spells I do are simple too; protection, self love, and abundance.
And for these spells all I need are candles, herbs, and (most importantly) my intention.
