What does your ideal day look like?
These are writing prompts I looked up for shadow work so I can learn more about myself. So I will be writing out my answers to these questions here so I can read over them as I need to at a later date.
What does my ideal day look like? Well some of my favorite days are days when I have big plans that usually involve some type of travel and doing things I have never done before. I like to explore and adventure. The other night we took a midnight hike to have a photo shoot on a cliff. The hike was over a mile around a popular lake here in Southern Ohio and then we had to climb these precarious steps and it was a miracle my fat ass was able to squeeze between the rocks, but my friends all helped me and I made it. We got changed and set up for the shoot. We set up a make shift alter with skulls, candles, herbs, and crystals then my friend took pictures.
Early in the day we had gone to a graveyard and took pictures with some tomb stones. Enjoyed the foliage and ran around barefoot in the grass. My friend complained the ground was soft and I said it was in case they wanted to come back for Halloween.
Lately my days consist of waking up before 8 am and getting my roommates 7yo to do his online learning stuff. Make breakfast and then once hes done he games while I work on meditation and grounding work. Spend my day looking at tarot spreads and learning about new reading techniques. Researching some different type of things I am interested in with my spellwork. Like currently I am working on shadow work and I plan on trying to cast a circle tonight and scrying for the first time. My friends mother knows a woman who has to write with both hands while she scrys because she gets lengthy messages from two separate sources. I am nervous to try, but its a practice and I know if it doesn’t work right off I will get better with time.
So if I am honest my ideal day would be one where I either go exploring or I master a practice in my spell work I have been working on for a while. These feel like selfish pursuits, but I lost my job at the beginning of the lockdown and my apartment. Moved in with my friend and no neither of us have jobs so we are here all the time. She has a car and I don’t so she goes out and does things while I stay home and isolate so any chance to get out of the house in Corona times is great. So i decided this was the time to work on all the things I want to get deeper into and master. So I have been upping my spiritual game and my witch craft game. Corona has allowed me to see a lot of my passions come to light and my gifts become a lot stronger.
Maybe the take away from this is I need to try and get out more and do for others. Give back since i have been so blessed to find a roof over my head and food in my belly during this hard time in America.
