I’d like to thank Luna Luna Magazine for permitting me to write a massive beast of a piece on the middle bit in the Venn diagram of exercise and magical practice.
Physical activity (in whatever way your body can accomplish, given that we all have different mobilities and abilities and some of us manage a disability or chronic illness) is a celebration. When we carry out magical acts, don’t we do it to flourish — rather than to shrink and feel small? We can pour ritual into how we use our bodies, and we can use our bodies to add a deeply physical element to connect us with our spirit, too.
