Witchabout – A Witch’s Journey

Witchabout – /wɪtʃ-əˈbaʊt/ – [wich-uh-bout] – when a witch briefly returns to the earth, for an unspecified time frame, to commune with nature, collect herbs, stones, and presents of the forest, and most significantly to search out the issues they weren’t on the lookout for. 

On the tenth day of the tenth month at 10:10 AM, my journey will start. I’ve chosen the quantity 10, The Wheel of Fortune, because it signifies the tip of 1 cycle and the beginning of one other. I do not need any plans for when I’ll return, however I believe it will likely be once I’m completed doing regardless of the universe leads me to. Where I plan to start out is a mountain hillside, nearly 8,000′ ft above sea stage. For there I do know that crystals may be discovered and I’ve been excited about crystals for your complete summer season.

This is my proclamation:

It’s the tenth day of the tenth month and ten minutes ahead of the tenth hour and this marks the official begin of my Witchabout.

My house can be empty, for I’m going to spend a while with the land. Fall often pulls me in lots of instructions, and infrequently time I let it. Yet as every winter units in, I remorse not doing the issues I ought to have accomplished to develop spiritually. The timber are at all times calling, however I discovered myself too busy to pay attention. This year, I’m taking cost. The Great Mother has been calling me, and her voice grows in quantity as every day passes. Today, I give my bodily physique permission to wander the land.

If I’m known as to collect the final of the wild herbs, hidden deep in a copse of timber, then I shall achieve this with the blessings of the Mother. Should a pebble roll throughout my path, then my hand shall be free to select it up and trade some magick. If a fallen department catches my eye with its form and stoutness, the maybe I shall make it into a brush and place it close to my fireplace. And with out fail, my eyes shall scan the forest ground, making an attempt to catch a glimpse of that which has been chosen for me to find.

As the solar languishes on the western horizon, my time shall be with my Book of Shadows, the place ink and quill would possibly without end bear in mind the magick of the day. I shall sit, unencumbered, my physique at one with the land, and hearken to the whispers of the timber. With sightless eyes, the pictures of steerage and messages of gratitude shall be offered. And when night time lastly overtakes the day, I shall relaxation, however stay awake. And despite the fact that the moon can be dark, the celebs can be sensible.

My flesh linked with the naked earth because the hours go. Forest sounds are however tales of the ancestors. I’ll pay attention, filling within the sights from some historic reminiscence that I’ve been gifted. And in these hours, when the world is quiet, I’ll open my soul to the facility of this land. My data can be superior, my knowledge reimagined, and plenty of puzzles lastly put to relaxation.

And because the solar makes a grand and beautiful entrance, I shall marvel on the canopies of gold, and orange, and red. From there, my thoughts will comply with as my physique leads. I’ve introduced my sack for the bones, twigs, antlers, bindweed, items of wooden, stones, and some other bits which might be on the market ready for me. This is my witchabout.
