Low Set-Up Traditions

If you ask any witch or spiritual individual what their practise looks like, you’ll get a range of answers. Some will tell you they’re always observing the Moon cycle, journaling nightly, pulling cards, lighting candles, tracking transits. Others will shrug and say they don’t remember the last time they sat down to do anything that looked like a ritual at all.

Sometimes, we don’t have the energy to sit down and actually observe. Some days, we’re incredibly astute and connected. There is no clean line of connection. Each individual connects differently.

To practise, doesn't require doing a ritual. A ritual is typically defined as something that follows a set procedure and is created to be repeated. Some witches (myself included), never remember what we did to create a feeling we had, unless we painstakingly plan it. And that's okay!

The beautiful thing about our Spirit, is that we are able to make it look however we chose it to look.
