So, I've had this little spark of new energy these past few days... and I kind of want to nurture it and see where I can take it.

First decition I made was to pull out all my old research on Witchcraft, Wiccanism, druidism, and all kinds of magical and spiritual things. And to pull out the herbal teas of coarse.

Second is to re-stock on the candles, incence and similar things.

But... I could use some hints and tips on how to kick-start my sprititual life again and to nurture this spark that suddenly appeared. So... if you have any tips, ideas and especially on how to stock up on supplies cheaply, please enlighten me! *smiles*

I'm all eyes!

Blesings,

I have been going through something similar. For me I found that getting back to basics to be very helpful. Just doing meditation and simple folk magic is a great reminder as to why I loved witchcraft so much in the first place.

I am also going through this renewal....I think it had something to do with the solstice. A housemate recently moved out and I finally have room to build an altar, so that is how I am renewing myself. I am also finding lots of old books that I haven't read in a couple of years on Paganism and am taking a class in COT. I am going to get back into my folk magic again, as well.

I agree with what Sage and Nitefalle said, try going back to the basics, meditate, try simple folk magic (not large complex rituals, but just simple magic to help with certain tasks, etc).

Maybe read some of your first books again, or any book that gets your magical juices flowing.

Maybe find your favourite fantasy novel or find one you'll like, one that has a lot of magical activity in it, and see if that helps, sometimes, when I've read a fantasy novel, suddenly my magical juices will start flowing again and I'll remember why I love witchcraft and why I first got into it.

Not sure if that helped or made sense.

Go outside and dance tonight when the moon is up. It's just past full so is very big and bright now. Fast, slowly, just twirling around, gently swaying and waving your arms, bellydance, any movement you feel like making. Let the wind be your music, or listen to your own drummer, as Henry David Thoreau might say.

Blesings, I have been going through a revitalizing as it were to. What I have been doing is Meditating, connecting with nature by going for walks, reading again books on my spiritual path and things of interest. I have been working on COT classes that I have been a student of and teaching. ( it is always a good refresher) also just reading some of my favorite websites to always help... at least it does for me . Oh ya and reading my journals to...
