Description

Discover how to do witchcraft the lazy way with this self-care-promoting book of super-easy spells and rituals for days when you’re feeling stressed, burned out, or just generally sh*tty.
 
Traditional witchcraft is a lot of work and some days you just need to do things the lazy way. After all, everyone gets tired sometimes. Some of us get tired a lot. In Lazy Witchcraft for Crazy Sh*tty Days, Andrea Samayoa from the popular TikTok handle MoonStreetKits, is going to show you how to do witchcraft even when you’re really, really tired. Or sick. Or burnt out. Or just had a really crappy day.
 
Andrea’s approach to witchcraft is rooted in making things as easy as possible, so you can continue to do magic even when you don’t have a lot of spoons to give. The book is divided into six chapters, each of which focuses on a different kind of magic, including:
 
  • Self-Care: Rituals, spell jars, and enchantments to help you go from feeling blah to feeling like the radiant magical being you are.
  • Focus + Energy: Teas, shaker jars, oils, and mini rituals that give you energy instead of taking it out of you.
  • Protection + Warding: Everything from basic protections during spell-casting to full-on warding from a**hole energy vampires.
  • Manifestation: Literally the easiest manifestation work you will ever do.
  • And more!

Each spell or ritual is rated according to the number of “spoons” it takes to perform, and yes, that does include zero-spoon options (for the REAL bad days). The book will also feature Andrea’s best witch tips for divination, bulk recipes, herbs, ingredient/item substitutions, and more.
 
Fun, irreverent, and gorgeously illustrated, Lazy Witchcraft for Crazy, Sh*tty Days is the easiest witchcraft book you will ever buy. It’s perfect for beginners, young practitioners, or any witch who’s ever struggled to find the magic inside themselves on a really bad day.
Discover how to do witchcraft the lazy way with this self-care-promoting book of super-easy spells and rituals for days when you’re feeling stressed, burned out, or just generally sh*tty.

Loved! I basically read the book in a night, purchased the necessities on amazon and am ready to start my lazy witchcraft ways. This book really made it easy, with the step by steps and the spoons! The spoons are such a good idea so you know what you are getting into ahead of time!

I’ve followed Andrea Samayoa of Moon Street Kits on TT for a while now and was excited to see she was putting out a book. Imagine my surprise when it popped up on NetGalley! It was an instant download. So with that, thank you NetGalley and Fairwinds Press for the opportunity to read and review this book!

The illustrations are beautiful! I also love how blunt and to the point all the included information is along with keeping it simplistic for beginners.

I can’t wait to own a physical copy!

This book is a true gem for anyone who's interested in witchcraft but finds themselves too tired or overwhelmed to commit to traditional, time-consuming rituals. Andrea Samayoa’s Lazy Witchcraft for Crazy, Shtty Days* is exactly what the title suggests: practical, easy spells and rituals for those days when life is just too much.

The writing is down-to-earth and humorous, making you feel like you’re getting advice from a friend. The gorgeous illustrations add a magical touch, making it a joy to flip through. Whether you're new to witchcraft or just need something simple for rough days, this book is a must-have. It's fun, accessible, and empowering. Highly recommend!

I am a big fan of the author and their no frills, easy spell craft, with no guilt or making you feel like you cannot be a “proper” witch without all the bells and whistles.

I loved the ease, the inclusion of spoons, the simple descriptions that just made it easy.

Fantastic book. I was lucky to get an earc, and I have already preordered the physical book for my library. A must read.

As someone who has always been interested in witchcraft but never knew where to start, I found this book fantastic. Nothing was overly complicated and it was easy to follow.
Great for all beginners as materials, spells and information is explained well.
The writing feels as if it’s your best friend telling you everything you need to know. however it does contain a lot of swear words so if that offends you, this book might not be for you.

The illustrations in this book were beautiful and it was so informative! No gatekeeping here. I absolutely loved the spoon ratings and the zero spoon options. There’s a spell for anything in here. I’ll be purchasing a physical copy for reference when it comes out.

This is a chronically ill pagan's best friend. The book is beautifully illustrated. It contains all of the useful charts you could imagine- what colors, crystals, and herbs to use for certain intentions, moon phases, etc. It even has adorable spoon level charts next to each spell!! For example, a super easy low-effort spell would be 1 spoon, but one which takes a lot of energy would be 4 spoons. I'm obsessed and will be recommending it to all of my witchy friends.

From a young age, I've always been interested in witchcraft. There was something about it that interested me. I think the movie Practical Magic is to thank for that. I always loved the line "Always throw spilt salt over your left shoulder, keep rosemary by your garden gate, plant lavender for luck, and fall in love whenever you can." It always felt like magic and love came hand in hand. I've found very few guides over the years that I've connected to. But this is one of them.

I enjoyed how this book apologized for nothing. It was crass yet thorough. The art style felt warm and inviting. On each page it was detailed, and giving substitutions for things you might night have was helpful. Each spell seemed like it was geared toward light and helpfulness. I didn't see any that brought any kind of ill will. Just a healthy dose of mind your business and give me space. And as someone with ADHD, I think I could definitely use the Anti-Procrastination Oil.

Alongside the spells in this book there was also bits that taught you about the moon and crystals. All in all I really liked this guide and I'll be suggesting it for a book order in the future.

"Yes, everything is on fire, but, bitch, I got this"

This book is filled with practical tips, attainable goals, and witty writing. Just what I need in a book that's helping me to be a better me!
I loved the setting of attainable, day-to-day goals. The tips on centering/grounding yourself, staying mindful, and establishing meditative practices were super helpful. I've always struggled with settings intentions and getting caught up in complicating simple tasks, so I look forward to putting these tips and tutorials together!
Her descriptions of directions were both hilarious, simple, and very helpful. Don't get me started on the artwork in here, absolutely GORGEOUS. I didn't even realize I followed her on TikTok until after I got this ARC, and when I double checked myself, I remembered how much I love her videos, tips, and tricks! I'm having to reign myself in from buying a new journal (just write in the one you already have Taylor), but I can't wait to utilize the journaling recommendations and reflections. The prompts for manifesting are amazing questions to ponder on and I'll definitely be writing in my journal about them later.

Thank you NetGalley, Fair Winds Press, and Andrea Samayoa for this ARC in exchange for an honest review.
