this was my first year at university, and although it was really rewarding academically, the course was so intense i ended up basically unable to do or even think about anything outside of my studies. as a result i burnt out and lost touch with my practice, and have been really struggling to get back into it ever since.

so, does anyone have any advice for returning to witchcraft after burning out? or just anecdotes to share?

also, i would love some advice on keeping up with witchcraft while studying for a really demanding degree, and any spells/working recommendations which might be useful at university.......

best advice. take your time. there is no rush to return. when you do. do it on your terms of whats in your best interests. magick and witch craft will still be there for you

i have also been in your position as well, and just recently transitioned my career into metaphysics and witchcraft full time so that is the only reason i have freed time now, but my whole life was spent trying to divide it between life and my practice.

try to integrate parts of practice into your daily routine. anointing yourself with oil as you get ready, if you do deity work integrating prayers daily, and trying to read a bit each day even if it’s before bed. also sigil scribing is my go to part of practice when things get busy. it doesn’t have to be incredibly elaborate, just intentional.
