People who can’t communicate think everything is an argument.

Practical Magick: Magick Using Things You Probably Already Own

So often I come across people that want to begin practicing witchcraft but they don't know where to start, more specifically how to practice with little to no money. Which really shows how deeply we've gone into the whole "you need lots of money for everything you do" rabbit hole. Just to clarify, I see absolutely nothing wrong with spending as much money as you want on your craft but I personally don't think it should be a prerequisite as to whether you can practice or not. Magick is for everyone, from the person that has a negative balance in their bank account to the person averaging $100,000 or more a year. Below are some super affordable things you can use in your craft that you may already have.

Salt: This is one of those things that can literally be used in so, so, many ways. Salt can be used in a cleansing bath, to anchor your chime or birthday candles in a bowl (be careful with this one and make sure to watch it because if the candle isn't anchored just right it can fall over), to cast a circle (indoors), etc.

Pen & Paper: These two items can be used to make sigils, you can also use a pencil if that's what you have access to. The paper can be an old receipt, a napkin, just something that you are able to write on. Cleanse the pen (or pencil) and paper, either using smoke or with your intent, then write your sigil. This sigil can then be placed wherever you choose, inside of a shoe, your wallet, purse or backpack, your pocket, it's really up to you!

Coffee & Tea: Coffee and tea are not only a wonderful vessel for placing your intention into but coffee can also speed up a spell. You can drink teas that correspond with your intention, they don't have to be fancy teas. You can literally go to the dollar tree and they almost always have a selection of green, black, chamomile, peppermint, and sometimes apple cinnamon tea. Other affordable brands include Carrington Tea, The London Tea Company, and Celestial Seasonings, also check out store branded teas.

Seasonings & Condiments: I'm talking about the ones you might already have in your kitchen. Such as ground cinnamon, dried oregano, vinegar, even seasoned salt, all of these things can be used in your craft in a variety of spells. Even if you don't have access to them yourself and you go to someone's home and they offer you a cup of coffee or tea, when you add any fixings to your cup you can use those as correspondences for your intention. For instance if you add sugar or honey to your coffee, you could then enchant your coffee for having a sweet day as you're stirring it in.

Water: Water is a wonderful holder for intentions, you can get a glass of water and write your intention, a word that embodies your intention, or a sigil onto the glass that you're drinking from. Or just place your intention into the glass.

Ramen: I know this might sound strange but believe it or not, even ramen can be magickal! Ramen is made from wheat flour (I'm not sure if it's all ramen but the affordable ones that come in those little individual packages is made from wheat flour.), which is associated with abundance, prosperity, fertility, friendliness and rebirth.

I hope this gave you some ideas or at the very least showed you that magick is not something exclusive to those that have access to fancy supplies and ingredients. And even things that appear mundane can become magickal in the right hands!

to effectively put the law into practice you must be aware of your thoughts. in other words, keep a mental diet. how do you do so? this is where techniques come to play. the purpose of techniques is to get you to think from your desire (not of it). how would it feel like if if you had your desire right now? if you catch that feeling, you are thinking from.

when you catch your thoughts to not be aligned with your wants, you apply techniques. for example, SATS is a technique, affirming is a technique, the void is a technique, visualisation is a technique and so on. what is important, however, is that you find enjoyment. why you get burnt out from manifesting is because you’re applying techniques in a way that isn’t enjoyable for you.

the techniques i use:

when i wake up, i don’t check my phone straight away - a ponder a bit on my thoughts. i focus on the feeling of wish-fulfilment.

during the day, whenever some kind of anxiety hits me, i journal it out to find the root of it (if i have time) and/or i just go ahead and tell myself that whatever i’m worried about is just a fragment of my imagination and no problem is that big. i tell myself i ought to forget the outside and focus within. i really try and feel what i’m affirming to myself, to feel the relief from not having to focus outside. then i focus on the state instead. what is it that i want to feel instead? i feel it and accept it and move on. i do this however many times i need to during the day.

before bed i think about the day i had. i look at it as objectively as possible, like watching a movie. and then after i’ve gone through my day, i change the scenes to my liking and this time with feeling. (aka revision)

when i fall asleep i do SATS. i imagine something that implies wish-fulfilled and fall asleep in the feeling.

i used to experience a lot of anxiety and i used to be miserable. but thanks to the law, thanks to maintaining a mental diet, i'm so much more happier and i rarely experience anxious thoughts.

also, you don’t have to affirm 200 times. you don’t have to listen to a subliminal 10 times a row - you don’t have to do anything you don’t like. the point isn’t to “get” something to appear in the 3D through techniques, but to enjoy your thoughts. stop forcing the 3D the change, it will inevitably. just focus on your thoughts, your feelings. are you feeling the things you like?

i do not do SATS every night because i think i have to. i do SATS because i enjoy it. i enjoy the feeling the fruits of my imagination.

figure out what it is that you want. what you truly want. and then imagine it. let yourself do so freely, you can experience it all right now. don’t restrict yourself with focusing on the 3D. that’s how a mental diet becomes enjoyable.

Either you live this way or not. Are you going to go back to being unaware of your thoughts and let yourself spiral into oblivion? Again, either you live this way or not. Either you stop yourself or you don't. Either you desire or know you have it. - Edward Art
