Simple Magick: 30 Low-Energy Magickal Activities

Small, simple low-energy magickal activities are important to my practice. They join the dots between bigger celebrations, rituals and work. 

They’re perfect for when you are feeling unwell, low on time, or disconnected from your Craft. Sometimes we need to rely upon low-energy activities to see us through a period of spiritual drought; until we can step things up a gear or commit to our Craft more fully.

Gratitude, mindfulness and seeing the magick and the joy in everything, are also helpful tools in any practice.
  • Burn incense intentionally ~ watch the smoke carry your ideas and intentions
  • Light a candle ~ concentrate on a thought, intention or affirmation
  • Read a witchy book
  • Write witchy poetry 
  • Draw a witchy sketch
  • Read up on a festival/sabbat if you’re not able to celebrate/observe it
  • Make magickal plans 
  • Journal 
  • Listen to some witchy/pagan/inspiring music 
  • Create some incense 
  • Update your Grimoire 
  • Clean your altar
  • Watch a witchy film or documentary
  • Write a letter to a witchy friend 
  • Discuss the nearest sabbat/festival/season
  • Bake something seasonal
  • Meditate 
  • Design spellwork for later 
  • Go for a small walk and observe what nature is doing 
  • Create a sigil
  • Reflect on the nearest sabbat/festival/moon phase and the last turn of the Wheel
  • Create a seasonal simmer pot using appropriate herbs and ingredients 
  • Make a hot drink and stir appropriately to banish or attract
  • Daydream out the window 
  • Do some cloud watching ~ look for messages 
  • Draw sigils/symbols/runes on plates before plating food
  • Do some witchy art/crafts 
  • Go outside ~ even if briefly ~ to look at the Moon 
  • Do some simple divination ~ eg. Tarot reading or scrying
  • Take a witchy bath ~ let the things you no longer need drain down the plughole

The list is endless, and I imagine many of us will do most of these. What would you add to this list?
