Samhain When You’re Out of Spoons is a low-energy Samhain and witchcraft guide filled with accessible rituals, beginner-friendly tarot and divination, ancestor work, grief rituals, protection magic, kitchen witchcraft and practical ways to celebrate the dark half of the year.
Written by mental health therapist and practicing witch Sonia Rompoti, MSc, this third book in the No-Spoons Witch series combines witchcraft, mental health practices and explanations, as well as accessibility friendly rituals for bed and wheelchair bound witches to create a Samhain practice that works with your actual energy and body.
Yes, Samhain is about the dead.. but sometimes we grieve the living too. The friendship that ended. The marriage that disappeared. The family member you had to leave. The future you expected. The body or ability you once relied on. The version of yourself who existed before everything changed.
And then there are the ancestors. Modern witchcraft can make ancestor work sound wonderfully cosy, as though everyone's family tree contains exclusively wise grandmothers who baked bread and knew suspicious amounts about herbs. Some of our ancestors were absolute disasters. This book is also about real families, with ancestors we are all afraid of inviting into our practice, even though we'd like to be able to.
The book is built around bingeable, bite-sized chapters, that teach Samhain in a practical, mental-health-informed way without dense lectures, spiritual homework or the assumption that you have unlimited energy, mobility, concentration, money or executive function.
Inside you'll discover:
- Low-energy Samhain rituals for zero-spoon, one-spoon and higher-energy days
- Accessible witchcraft for disabled, chronically ill, neurodivergent, overstimulated, exhausted and busy witches
- Simple rituals you can do from bed, in the shower, over tea or without candles
- Beginner-friendly tarot lessons designed for tired brains, including one-card Samhain tarot
- Divination techniques including tarot, bibliomancy and dream work
- Ancestor work without compulsory forgiveness, reconciliation or contact with people who harmed you
- Ways to work with chosen, cultural and spiritual ancestors
- Mental-health-informed explorations of grief, remembrance, nostalgia, endings and continuing bonds
- Rituals for living loss, including breakups, divorce, friendship loss, estrangement, changing identities and lost futures
- Protection, threshold, release, kitchen and home magic
- Practical magic for preparing your home, digital life, boundaries and support system for the dark half
- The psychology behind ritual and why humans create meaning around endings
- Plenty of real-life witchcraft that looks considerably less impressive than Instagram promised
