A Practical Deck for Pocket-Sized Sorcery
“Real spells don’t need giant rituals—they need gentle intention and a pinch of belief.”
— A busy witch’s whispered truth
In our fast-paced lives, magic often gets exiled—left behind on dusty shelves of intention and longing. But what if enchantment could be simple, quick, and woven seamlessly into a hectic day? Everyday Spells for Busy Witches: Deck of 50 Insight Cards answers that question with a playful wink and a practical nod.
🎴 What It Is
A beautifully packaged deck of 50 insight cards from Peter Pauper Press, each combining bitesized spells, nature-inspired artwork, and inspiring quotes from educators, artists, and thinkers. Compact, glossy, and accessible, these cards fit neatly into the pocket of your tote—or the margin of your planner.
🌸 Designed to Accommodate Your Life
1. Resolution in Five Words
Every card has a concise ritual—“manifest self-care,” “attract connection,” “cast protection circle.” No arcane tools needed.
2. Art You Can Taste
Printed on 300 gsm stock, the cards feature rich botanicals, mushrooms, snails, and fungi—each a whisper of earthy spells.
3. Context & Inspiration
Beyond spells, each card has a quote—adding context, reminding you why intention matters, and offering a moment of reflection.
🌿 Build Magic into Moments
Here’s how you (or your curious readers) can use the deck:
- Morning Intention Draw – Greet the day with clarity: “Connection” might suggest reaching out to a friend.
- Desk-Side Protection – Pull “Protection” before a stressful meeting to cast a mini circle.
- Evening Reflection – Card draw during tea time curates self-care or grounding rituals.
- Travel Companion – Carry it on flights or retreats; draw when you need calm or strength.
- Ritual Starter – Use as a bridge into longer practices—like pairing a journaling session with “Attraction.”
📚 What Others Say
From the product page:
“Bite-size rituals to manifest your intentions and make magic in the little things.”
And from a community buyer:
“These cards are beautiful, the illustrations are gorgeous! They offer inspiration with quick and simple spells. Very beginner‑friendly.”
Of course, some caution that they’re not tarot-level deep—but that’s exactly the point. These cards are about accessibility and immediacy.

💬 In-World Field Report
“Pulled the ‘Attraction’ card this morning. Its counsel: ‘Invite warmth.’ So I brewed cinnamon tea and called my sister. Felt like planting a seed in frost—not dramatic, but enough.”
⚠️ A Note on Practicality
These cards are tools of intention—not miracle-makers. They shouldn’t replace therapy or harm reduction practices. Think of them as psychic vitamins, not fast-acting potions.
