Tech Witchcraft

What is a Tech Witch?

Also called Technopaganism, Tech Witchcraft can be defined as the use of modern technology within magical rituals and other forms of witchcraft.

To me (but everyone has their own opinions), it’s really about accepting that the world is changing quite rapidly, and placing technology at the heart of my spirituality by using my computer and mobile phone in my craft - from finding resources, sharing knowledge, meeting fellow witches, etc.

It might seem in strong oppositions with the environmental and traditional values of witchcraft, but I don’t see them as opposite. On the contrary, there is power in using technology for good, and I intend to do so.

Witchy Phone Apps

Moon is a very simple and straight-forward app telling you the current moon phase according to your location. Ideally, I prefer actually checking the moon phase in the night sky, but as I live in a city, the moon is not always visible, so this app helps me a lot!

Labyrinthos is amazing for Tarot learners as it allows you to learn the meanings and correspondences in a Duolingo kind-of way. You can also draw cards directly on the app if you do not have your Tarot cards with you, or enter the cards you just drew physically to keep track of your previous readings.

Co-Star is a beautifully designed astrology app creating your birth chart, and giving you a hyper-personalized daily horoscope made from an algorithm that is just a bit wonky - but super fun!

Seek is a useful app for all the green witches out there as it allows you to identify wildlife, plants, and fungi with just a picture. Incredibly useful when you are in nature, or in stores, and you don’t know the exact name and properties of a plant that you’d like to harvest or buy.

💗Cute altar ideas💗

An altar to Aphrodite should be as beautiful as you can make it. Decorate it with ocean motifs, roses (real or fake), flower garlands, nods to Her sacred animals (doves, swans, dolphins,) art of Her or erotica, rose quartz, pearls, and bright colors that capture feelings of love and the sea. An altar beside a window, on a windowsill, a vanity stand, or somewhere with a mirror. If you need to keep it secret or wish to keep a travel altar, try to keep her altar in a pretty box adorned with floral or sea decorations or something like a makeup pouch.

Having an outdoor garden altar is also a perfect option for Her - make it bird and bee friendly, use organic products (ones without pesticides) on your plants, have bird-feeders around, and have a little place where you can safely light a candle or incense for Her along with an offering bowl and a place for you to sit and enjoy the beauty she brings to you.

Check out what I did! It took a bit, but it was worth it.

That's right! A jar of dandelion fluffs!

I carefully cut them from the plants using manicure scissors, then sprayed them from a distance with aerosol hairspray, laid them on a post it to dry for a few hours, carefully cut off the stems, & used tweezers to put them into the jar carefully.

I know it's something small & seemingly dumb, but I really like them & plan on doing more when they are back in season.
