POWER Up Your Magickal Self

What if your magickal power was never something to find, but something to remember?In this episode, we explore how to POWER up your magickal self, not through striving or control, but through presence, self-trust, and ritual.We'll explore the five energies of the P.O.W.E.R. framework: Presence, Owning, Wellbeing, Embodiment, and Ritual to help you reconnect with your magick in the middle of your everyday life.You’ll learn how to turn ordinary moments into sacred acts, reclaim your energy from what drains you, and embody your truth with quiet confidence.This isn’t about doing more.It’s about being more you.More rooted. More intentional. More magickal.I also share details of The Magickal Self, a 30-day ritual of reclamation, power, and becoming, and a special invitation to join the Samhain 30-Day Journey, an exclusive seasonal cycle for those ready to release, renew, and rise with the turning of the Wheel.In This Episode:The deeper meaning of “power” in magickal practiceHow to integrate the five energies of P.O.W.E.R. into daily lifeSimple ways to make everyday actions sacredA short closing ritual to reclaim your energy and embody your magickResources Mentioned:The Magickal Self Journal — 30-day ritual of reclamation, power, and becoming-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --All of the Magick:The A Pinch of Magick App:IPhone - download on the App StoreAndroid - download pn the Google PlayOur (free) magickal Community: Facebook GroupMagickal JournalsExplore on Amazon Rebecca's Author PageWebsiteRebeccaAnuwen.comMagickalHabits.comInstagramFor Magick: Click hereFor a Sacred Pause in Nature: Click hereFor CharmCasting: Click hereFor Merlin, my Dog: Click here

After three months of silence, the longest break in this podcast’s history, I’m back. But this pause wasn’t empty. It was a season of composting, of finishing my MA, and of stepping into the threshold of my PhD.In this episode, I share: ✨ Why pauses are not failures, but fertile ground for renewal ✨ What completing my MA has taught me about cycles of ending and beginning ✨ How the threshold of my PhD is reshaping what’s ahead for A Pinch of Magick ✨ The symbolic power of autumn’s descent and why release is radical magick ✨ The importance of honouring your own transitionsThis episode is both a re-introduction and a reminder: magick isn’t linear. It’s cyclical. Just like the seasons, our lives are woven with growth, fallow times, endings, and new beginnings.Whether you’re moving through a big life change, resting in a pause, or just craving more connection to the cycles of magick in your own life, this is your invitation to see thresholds not as interruptions, but as powerful portals.-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --All of the Magick:The A Pinch of Magick App:IPhone - download on the App StoreAndroid - download pn the Google PlayOur (free) magickal Community: Facebook GroupMagickal JournalsExplore on Amazon Rebecca's Author PageWebsiteRebeccaAnuwen.comMagickalHabits.comInstagramFor Magick: Click hereFor a Sacred Pause in Nature: Click hereFor CharmCasting: Click hereFor Merlin, my Dog: Click here
