Okay, so I’ve been messing around with this whole “naked witchcraft” thing. It sounded kinda weird at first, but I was curious, so I gave it a shot. Here’s how it went down.
Getting Started
First, I picked a night when I knew I’d be totally alone. No roommates, no pets, nobody to barge in. Total privacy was key. I waited for a new moon, because I learned it is a great time for new beginnings and setting intentions, so it felt right.
I gathered some basic stuff:
- A candle (white, because it seemed pure and simple)
- Some incense (lavender, ’cause it’s calming)
- A bowl of water (just tap water, nothing fancy)
- A small stone (I found it in my garden, it just felt good to hold)
The Ritual (Or Whatever You Wanna Call It)
When it got dark, I took a shower. I wanted to feel clean and fresh, like I was washing away all the day’s crap. Then, I didn’t put any clothes back on. Yep, totally naked. It felt a little strange at first, but also kinda liberating.
I went into my room, lit the candle and the incense. The smell was really nice, and the candlelight made the room feel different, more… sacred, I guess.
I sat on the floor, facing the candle. I placed the bowl of water and the stone in front of me. I just sat there for a few minutes, breathing deeply, trying to clear my head. It’s harder than it sounds!
Then, I closed my eyes and focused on what I wanted. For me, it was about feeling more confident and less anxious. I visualized myself being strong and calm, facing challenges without freaking out. It was like watching a movie in my head.
I dipped my fingers in the water and touched my forehead, my heart, and my stomach. It was kinda like anointing myself, I guess. It felt… grounding, * I hold the stone in my hand.
I opened my eyes and just looked at the candle flame. I didn’t say any spells or anything, I just let myself feel. Feel the warmth, feel the quiet, feel the… I dunno, energy? It’s hard to explain.
Wrapping Up
After a while (maybe 20 minutes? I wasn’t really keeping track), I blew out the candle. I poured the water outside, like I was returning it to the earth. I kept the stone on my nightstand.
I put on some comfy clothes and just chilled out for the rest of the night. I felt… different. More relaxed, more centered. Like I’d connected with something, even if I couldn’t put my finger on what it was.
The Aftermath
Did it work? Hard to say for sure. I definitely felt calmer and more focused in the days that followed. Did I magically become super-confident? No. But I did feel a little shift, a little more in tune with myself. And that’s something, right?
I’ve done it a few more times since then, always on new moons. It’s become a little ritual for me, a way to check in with myself and set intentions. It’s not about spells or magic, really. It’s about taking time for myself, being present, and connecting with something deeper. Maybe that “something” is just me, maybe it’s something more. I’m still figuring it out.
