In this episode of Becoming Witchy, we delve into the practice of calling in the elements, also known as calling the circle. This fundamental practice is often used to create a sacred space before performing spells or rituals. I’ll discuss how this practice can serve as a powerful meditation tool to center yourself, ground your body, calm your mind, and heighten your awareness of the present moment. Calling in the elements can prepare you to set clear intentions and cast successful spells. Join me for a practical and insightful exploration of this essential ritual.

In preparation for the upcoming total solar eclipse this episode is all about the magic and wonder of solar eclipses. Though typically spellwork is not recommended during an eclipse we talk about the themes regarding shadow work and re-emerging from the underworld. I share a pre-eclipse ritual and sun/moon offering you can do to honor these themes. Happy eclipse! We will be on spring break now but will be back with a new episode after the summer solstice in June!
