Journal Embarking on this occult journey

[wytchraven]

I decided to start a journal, to keep myself motivated and accountable in my practice. I am mainly interested in folk catholicism, folk magic, witchcraft and some elements of ceremonial magic. I have gathered some books and organized them for myself in a neat curriculum divided by months. I am still a university student and don't have a lot of free time, but I want to read more meanigful books instead of scrolling on social media. This week I started daily prayers, they include some Hail Marys, Litany to a saint I want to build relationship with, planetary prayer to Archangel of the day, some psalms and sucess prayer from GV. I probably won't be able to pray all of them everyday, but I want to do at least some and be consistent with it. I am also planning on doing some cleansing and protection workings for me and my dorm room. I already have some basic supplies like candles, protection oil, olive oil, salt, some herbs etc., so creating little rituals won't be a problem fortunately. I am also looking into some alternatives for burning incense on charcol discs, since I have smoke detector in my room and don't want to wake up whole building in the middle of the night with it going off. I have seen some practicioners recommend oil diffiusers, so I will look into that.
