Winter Magick: Using the Winter Season to Create Change

We might have just had Imbolc, but winter is still going strong here! That’s ok, we’ll just have to continue with the winter magick.

  • Stamp/scrape out a word, phrase concept or idea in grass on hard frost and watch it disappear as the day warms up. Great for banishing magick.
  • Burn discarded Yule/Christmas cards in the fire, bestowing love and best wishes upon the sender for the year ahead.
  • Build a snowman. Use him as a large magickal poppet. Good for healing spells or banishing, or as a magickal guardian for your home ~ BUT ~ bear in mind he WILL melt!
  • Stay inside and create a warming incense blend. As you crush and mix the ingredients concentrate on your intentions for the incense.
  • Create snow moon water.
  • Get organised and use the time indoors to write rituals for any forthcoming sabbats.
  • Add a cup of clean snow to a ritual bath for purification.
  • Create a warming tea - add warming herbs and spices, many of them (such as star anise and cinnamon) are associated with psychic ability, so why not do some divination while you’re at it.
  • Use snow in spells. Consider the energy of the snow as it fell. Did it fall heavily, which you could associate with high energy, or do you correspond snow with tranquility, calm and peace? Maybe you could use snow in spells to slow things down?
  • Freeze snow for later.
  • Update your Grimoire.
  • Write something good you’d like on a piece of paper, roll into a snowball, and then keep rolling until your intention gets bigger and bigger.

What magickal activities do you look forward to each winter?
