Are you closeted? And not in the LGBT+ plus way (live your best life though).
I mean like, are you in the witch closet? Do you still want to participate in all the spooky happening and witchy going-ons?
Well do I have some neat little spells for you! Just 3 basic little spells to do when you need to recharge those batteries.
Simple Space Cleansing Spell
Are you worried about doing a cleansing spell, but can’t burn things because of where you are, such as living in a dorm (where you can’t usually burn things like candles or incense or have a hotplate)?
Here’s a little spell you can do during your usual cleaning.
Salt is also good for cleansing spaces, bringing in an element of earth into your space, which is also good for grounding yourself and your space.
Any kind of salt will do, so whether your stealing salt packets from the dining hall or just the kosher salt from your cabinet in the kitchen, you can do this.
So depending on the type of flooring you have, you’ll need a broom or vacuum (to clean up).
Items:
- Salt (any kind)
- Broom for hardwood/tile floors
- Vacuum for carpet floors
Start by scatting the salt around the border of the room, where the walls and floor meet. Focus on the salt absorbing everything negative in the room, like chaos, negativity, and energy blocks.
If it’s hard to image the energy getting sucked up, think of the bad energies like a juice spill and the salt is a magic (hehe, magic pun) paper towel soaking it all up.
Then just sweep/ vacuum up the salt.
And boom! Space cleansed! No burning/ endangered sage necessary. And if you share the space with a roommate/dorm-mate, they’ll be none the wiser and probably even thank you for doing some chores.
Simple Self Cleansing Spell
Now that your space is cleansed, you gotta cleans your own energy.
Besides meditation, which is easy enough to do and so many people are doing it these days, that nobody would bat an eye at you, but maybe you need some a little more intense.
All you need is your shower.
When you stand in the shower, letting the water wash over you, image the water taking all the bad energy from you, from head to toe. Let the bad energy wash down your body, across your fingers and toes.
Stand in the shower after you turn to water off, waiting until the water drains away.
Then step out feeling refreshed, lighter and ready for the day (or to sleep, whenever you decide to shower).
Bonus points, you can do this with a bath as well, if a bathtub is available. Just sit in your tub until all the water drains away at the end.
Simple Self Care Spell
So you’re space is cleansed, you are cleansed (and clean :)), so now what should you do? What else can you do while you’re trying to stay under the radar?
Get into some self-care! Everybody does self-care these days and your roomies won’t bat an eye at a face mask, a mani-pedi session, or some fuzzy socks and a soft sweater after a long day.
So add some witchiness to your self care with a little something extra.
I suggest teas! Teas of all kinds! A nice cup of tea is great for any day of the week, and relaxing too!
It can also help you get into learning herbs and their associations.
Don’t get disheartened by being a closeted witch, or that you can’t always do big, extravagant spells. Even experienced witches need to do simple things, like cleansing their space and giving their selves a little self-care.
