Often, I’m asked by other witches how they can strengthen their magick, or increase their manifestation abilities. My answer is always the same. Live a ritualistic life, because ritual is a lifestyle.
Then, I usually get the questioning stare, before one word slips out from their lips. How?
Living a ritualistic lifestyle can be as complicated or easy as you want to make it. Some of you may find my way of adding rituals to my daily life a bit elaborate. But, I can assure you, once you begin implementing rituals daily, it becomes effortless.
The key is to do at least one magickal ritual every day. This ritual can be anything from reading a chapter from an occult book, to creating a magickal Sigil, to performing an actual spell. Start with something easy to add to your daily schedule. It must be a ritual you know you can do each day. You can also change your ritual from day to day. For example, you may do a simple candle spell on Monday, a meditation focused on increasing your manifestation powers on Tuesday and Thursday, reading from an occult book for an hour on Wednesday and Friday, and studying tarot on Saturday and Sunday. Once you’ve gotten in the habit of doing one magick based activity a day, you can change your activities more often, and start to add more to your daily practice.
When I first began to create my ritualistic lifestyle, I set myself up to do one spell a day, for year. At the time, I had just started working with Enochian Angels, through sigils. Each day, I would focus on a specially crafted Sigil, while calling to a particular group of angels, and stating what I wished to manifest. I used the same Sigil and same group of angels for seven days. After seven days, I would change the sigil, group of angels, and my intention. For the first couple of weeks, it was difficult to remember to do my spell each day. Sometimes, I would remember right before bed, and would have to rush it out before going to sleep. However, it soon became habit. At the end of that year, I had everything I had asked the angels for.
Surrounding yourself with objects of magick is extremely helpful. I have mini altars set up all over my home. Even the simplest act of lighting a scented candle can become a ritual, when done in front of a statue of Hekate. Above my fireplace is a shelf that holds a wooden carving of Hekate, the ashes of my beloved black dog, a shadow box filled with different crystals and stones, an arrangement of wild flowers, and several scented candles. It’s easy to add an extra ritual to my day by just lighting one of my candles and reciting a quick incantation. I usually do this simple ritual before a night of watching horror movies. It really helps set the mood.
My hope for this blog, my Patreon, and all of my social media platforms, is to show you how to add ritual to your everyday life. Everything you do should have magick tied to it. By implementing these changes into your lifestyle, your magickal abilities will undoubtedly grow and expand. You are surrounding yourself in magick. The universe will respond.
