Self-love is sometimes an ugly thing. Though it often looks like wearing clothes you love or indulging in a childhood hobby, other times it means holding yourself accountable, showing yourself compassion through a depressive episode, caring for your body even though you want to do the opposite—and doing the messy work of stewarding your energy.
Because setting and enforcing boundaries is MESSY work, y’all. It’s better in the long run, but the immediate may mean angry loved ones, grieving lost relationships, and fighting our own toxic instincts.
Fortunately for us, we’re witches. And while magick isn’t an automatic fix, it’s a dynamic tool we can reshape and use in infinite ways to help us get comfortable keeping our energy—and ourselves—safe.
