#FediCoven 2026 Q9: Show something worthless but valuable to your practice.
Journaling. It's pure magic for me.

#FediCoven 2026 Q8: What’s a mundane activity that becomes unexpectedly magical or spiritually significant when done attentively?
Making meals, making yourself a pretty coffee, baking, etc. Basically, anything to give yourself fuel and energy. You have to put intention into the things you do. It matters. The same could be said for showers, baths, or skincare routines.

I'm an ecologist and having a career in that field has made a huge mark on my polytheist practice. I know pagans tend to be a bit crunchy by nature, but my education and training inform the way I see the world and that includes my religious ideology.
I'm not living in ancient or even modern Iceland, or Sweden, or Poland, or Scotland. I tend to focus on local plant and animal life and how they tie into my views on gods related to fertility, the land, and the seasons. Bird migrations inform my shifts in seasonal practice. I see #Freyja in my local red-tailed hawks. #Óðinn in the common ravens on campus. I know when to expect thunder storms and give to #þórr ahead of time, while giving to #Freyr during the milder rainy season. When crocus bulbs begin to pop up they tell me we're entering Spring and to thank #Mokosz. An #Cailleach blows in with the first frost.
One of course doesn't need to be a scientist to be keyed in like this, I know plenty of pagans who are not and are just as keyed in. For me though it's second nature, no pun intended. Having a localized practice brings me closer to the gods in a way that makes sense to me. It also informs how I interact with the land wights, making sure to leave offerings safe for local plants and animals when outdoors. It's brought me into the flow of life around me and I'm at grateful for it.
