As an urban witch, it's sometimes difficult to find places to conduct or complete magick. One of the most challenging is when a spell requires you to send something to the goddess in a moving body of water. Here in Boston I do have the benefit of being relatively near both the Atlantic and the Charles River, but access points are certainly not safe for women at the witching hour. So I have been experiencing a certain amount of distress and dismay when it comes to making proper offerings (I have a funny fire escape story, but that can wait for another time).

Today, I found a spot! After several days of uncomfortable heat, today was nice and I decided to go for a bike ride along the Charles River. The bike path that begins at the Esplanade lies between the river and Storrow Drive and at one point goes over a wooden bridge that curves around the base of a bridge. Eureka! The perfect offering spot! There, right above the water, upon a wooden bridge.

Okay, so I would never go down there late at night. But I was envisioning offerings carried in my backpack while I rode my bike and then given to the water of the river.

Score one for this urban witch!
