This self-published essay explores the phenomenon of “witchcraft as self-care” which — popularised in the world of self-help books and social media — is often connected to the further-reaching market of spiritual commodities. It is argued that the project of “witchcraft as self-care” is a result of greater neoliberal logic which urges to privatise feelings of suffering. Transgressing such understanding of magic the essay proposes how magic could be understood as a caring method. In the end the book functions as an archive formagical practices which provide communal healing, restore caring infrastructures and help to redistribute the knowledge of magic as a tool of resistance.
