City Witchery

Lisa Marie Basile Schools of Public Engagement '12

The author of Light Magic for Dark Times and The Magical Writing Grimoire shows you how to maintain a potent and poetic practice when time, space, and resources are scarce. City Witchery invites you to step into your own power through poetic writing prompts, reflections, and practical rituals - so that you can find the sacred in your city.

  • Tap into your inner magic in a city environment or while traveling
  • Conduct shadow work with your city
  • Tune in to city astrology
  • Embrace the enchantment of city streets and the power of wandering
  • Honor the dead in your city through graveyard ritual
  • Perform kitchen witchery and find ways to make your apartment magical
  • Escape from digital and sensory overload
  • Reframe city limitations to reveal potential and inspiration
  • Tap into energies
  • Write magical poetry inspired by your city
  • Honor the people and cultures that came before you

City Witchery offers you new, accessible ways - from constructing portable or permanent altars and working with herbs in apartment magic to performing bibliomancy in your city library and working with nature and the moon in city spaces - to live intentionally in a city.
