Baby witch here, what are some of everyone's most important daily and/or weekly practices?
Just out of curiosity. :)

Little thinks here and there, cinnamon in my coffee, lighting a candle on my altar, crossing off the previous day on my Witches Calendar and seeing what today is. Pulling a card from my tarot deck as a see what the day will bring kinda thing.

What's your witches calendar, if I may ask?

Checking on all my house plants, and watering them/misting them if they need it! In the gardening months, I wake every morning and mill around the yard, too!

I also love my plant babies.

Set my crystals and lucky acorn on the window sill, lite an unscented white candle and just relax sitting in front of the window and asking for AND releasing positive energy

First is my lil coffee magic. Every day I stir clockwise and infuse it with whatever positive stuff I need for the day.
Next is my shower. I have a eucalyptus branch hanging in it (you can get it in the floral section of Trader Joe’s) and I do a little cleansing spell - picturing all the negative stuff going down the drain.
I also use crystals daily, generally I’ll carry one in my pocket and I’ll also wear a pendant and a bracelet, all of which are handmade by me and charged under the sun or moon.
I also like to add a little magic to my food. I cook almost every day so I’ll thank the meat or produce for providing my family with dinner or lunch or whatever, and I’ll just picture adding good stuff and vibes to each dish.
I also refresh a spell jar (well, bag) for good sleep every week or so.

I like how you infuse your small daily habits with meaning.

Daily? Carry a pendulum in my pocket for energy-focusing and dowsing needs. Most days, also carry small satchel with three or six semiprecious stones. The stones vary according to the plan for the day.

I generally try to do a banishing ritual and energy work daily just to keep the juices flowing.

Mine is the physical cleaning of my room. Usually happens once a week and it keep the energy in my room from going stale (:

100% this is a huge one. Also rearranging furniture for me. The energy in a room will feel stiff to me and I’ll move a piece of furniture somewhere new and light a candle.

I plan what I am doing during morning bullet journaling, and reflect on what I've accomplished/manifested in the evening and set intentions for the next day. Part of my nightly reflection is drawing a daily card or a three-spread, and taking notes on how it reflects the day I just had, and how my intentions are manifesting.
If it's the night of the next moon phase (happens once weekly), I either set intentions or record reflections in my bullet journal depending on the phase, and burn a bunch of candles. I sometimes make little spell boxes in old mini candle tins using herbs and crystals that I carry around all month. I will also do a more complicated tarot spread, like the Celtic Cross, and take notes on how I should handle the next phase of the moon. This is a weekly thing but I wanted to mention it because it's just a more special version of my daily practice lol.
I don't do that much, I guess idk, but this is perfect for my life right now and it's actually helped my anxiety and productivity a lot.

No that's okay, you don't have to be doing something all the time. I was genuinely just curious what people's days look like, because I know witchcraft can be so personal.

Awww thanks you're so supportive and sweet! 💛 Thank you for asking this question, it's very interesting to read people's days!

I was a little worried that people might get protective of their habits and not answer, but I am happy they did.

As a Pathian I meditate 15 mins every day!
3
What's a Pathian? I tried looking it up, but apparently it's also a common name haha

It's actually from a book series called mistborn! I have a post about it here https://remysgrimoire.tumblr.com/post/189203773842/my-path

every sunday i (try to; i’m a low-energy witch bc disability lol) make an offering to Lugh, my patron deity. it’s usually a glass of iced peach tea with some agave and moon water. i drink most of it but i leave some out for him.
i try to keep up with the cycles of the moon and do tarot readings on full and new moons (~ every two weeks), and i stay up to date on my astrological transits and the mundane transits from day to day, as i use astrology in my personal craft.
i also like to use my showers as cleansing rituals. i love simple ways to permeate your craft into your life, and that’s one of many.

Yeah I'm getting the sense that it's more of the small things that people incorporate throughout the day rather than larger elaborate rituals. :)

Every morning when I make my coffee, I stir clockwise and imagine that I’m charging the coffee up with confidence and clarity for the day. I also have candles(fire) and rocks(earth) in my shower, and burn an incense(air) so whenever I shower I’m centering and cleansing myself with all four elements.
Ooh I like it. :) Very simple, but grounding.
Yes! Small things every day to keep me connected and keep the gloomies away. Lol if it’s something too big or requiring too much effort it’s hard to make myself do it on my bad days.
I resonate with that.

ahh i do this too! sometimes i chant a little chant in my head or whisper it into my coffee before taking a sip. it helps brighten up my day.
Yes! I always whisper to my coffee lmao like “please help me feel happy and productive today” or “please fill my body and mind with positivity and energy” and then sip! Once my cup is empty I say thank you as I take my last drink or put it in the sink! Every spell or chant or manifestation always comes with a please and thank you from me for some reason lol
