The Veil is Thin: Autumn Witchcraft

The Veil is Thin: Autumn Witchcraft covers spirit work, ancestral magick, and graveyard magick with Plants by Laurali! This time of year finds us with shorter days and longer nights as the Witches’ New Year is fast-approaching.

During the Samhain Season, the barrier between the earthly realm and the Other Side will become thinner and thinner until the veil is lifted. You may find that your intuition is heightened and your psychic insights are entering a new realm of power.

The veil becoming weakened allows us to tap into our 6th sense. As it becomes thinner, you are more likely to have mystical and mysterious experiences that are out of this world. This is an especially auspicious time for witches!

As the Samhain holiday is just around the corner, you’ll be able to openly communicate with spirits of all kinds. This includes wandering ghosts, the fairies, ancestors, and animal familiars.

Not only will you be able to communicate with them, but for some people, you’ll be able to see them more clearly. You might be able to see them in your mind’s eye, the corner of your eye, or have visions of them.

For others, it might be more auditory, meaning you’ll be able to hear their voices. It sometimes comes in physical form, or you might hear them inside your head. The auditory psychic ability comes in different forms to those who possess this gift.

This makes communicating with the dead easier. If you’d like to speak with a deceased loved one in thin places, you might like to spend time at their gravesite or with their ashes. This is the optimal time to practice graveyard magick!

There are numerous mysterious occurrences happening during the thinning of the veil. It’s essential to pay attention to signs and intuition, and utilize your psychic abilities to the fullest. Trust is important here, as you will be guided.

During the death season, everything dies off and falls away, making space for renewal. This time of year shrouds many things, creating uncertainty in numerous areas of life. Therefore, even though the veil is thin, life becomes a bit of a mystery.

You must dig deeper for information, but the truth will undoubtedly be unveiled and become known to you. That’s one of the less talked-about aspects of the thinning veil.

Soon, all we be known to you, and the fog will be lifted along with the veil between worlds. This makes it easier to forge a path, knowing where you’re going next.

The Veil is Thin: Autumn Witchcraft

When the veil is thin, it creates the perfect opportunity to practice spirit work. This kind of witchcraft involves divination, mediumship, and discovering worlds beyond what the eye can see.

Spirit connection enhances the ability to communicate with the deceased and assist them in their transition to the afterlife. This is known as ghost witchcraft. Oftentimes, the deceased loved one gets trapped between worlds and isn’t able to move on.

There are many wandering souls that need to transition to the Other Side, and this kind of witchcraft helps them do that. Death witchcraft is not for the faint of heart, but for those who are strong and enjoy helping people, even those who have passed away.

As the veil thins, you may want to explore the practice of ancestor veneration. Working with ancestors is like having an entire family behind you. They can help you navigate the darkness and bring healing to major issues in your life.

Working with the ancestors is a different kind of magic. The ancestors need to be fed and nourished in order to perform tasks on your behalf. Food offerings, candle magick, and libations are the way to their hearts!

The ancestors can be worked with at any time of the year, but they especially love the Samhain holiday, and if you’re looking for an offering, a pumpkin plant profile is the way to go! Pumpkins are large enough to feed your entire ancestral family.

There is a great deal of spiritual activity as the veil grows increasingly thin. Wandering spirits are free to come and go during this period.

If the hair on the back of your neck stands up or you suddenly get a whiff of Aunt Pearl’s fancy perfume, know that spirit may have come for a visit. I’m a firm believer that even deceased loved ones who have moved on come back to check on us and make sure we’re okay.

Additionally, truths will be revealed and clarity will come as the veil thins. Whatever was hidden from view will soon come into the light. You’ll receive downloads of information from your angels and spirit guides during the holiday season.

If you’d like to utilize your psychic abilities during this period, I recommend exploring the liminal spaces and times. Doorways, crossroads, graveyards, and fairy portals are spiritual hotspots. Dawn, dusk, noon, and midnight are optimal times to communicate with spirits.

Ideally, 3 am is the witching hour and is a hotbed for spiritual activity! If you wake up in the middle of the night and feel like something is “off,” be sure to look at your clock.

This time of year is ideal for hedge riding, experiencing visions, and engaging in psychic dream work. Don’t be surprised if a spirit comes to visit you in your sleep. They often like to visit us in our dreams.

When the veil is thin, you can practice autumn witchcraft in a brand-new way! It’s perfect for practicing shadow work and going to the hidden places deep within your psyche. It’s Halloween Season, and the magic, whimsy, and fun run deep. Are you ready?
