What if your altar, Tarot, Grimoire and rituals could all live in a magical space that’s always with you? Liminith is a modern witchcraft companion for the moments when your practice needs to come alive: at work, on holiday, on the train or whenever you need a calm, familiar space around you. It doesn’t replace your decks, runes, crystals, tools, altar or physical Grimoire. It gives your practice a second home: personal, portable and shaped around you. Liminith is path-free. Its meanings and correspondences are written neutrally, so you can adapt them to your own tradition and beliefs. WHEEL OF THE YEAR Keep your place in the turning of the seasons. Explore Sabbats, their themes, meanings and timing, and use the rhythm of the year for reflection, intention, ritual planning and seasonal magic. MOON, SUN & SKY Follow the Moon, check the current phase, explore lunar meanings and see what the sky is doing now. Eclipses, meteor showers, lunar and planetary transits, retrogrades and other notable events are gathered in one place, with deeper details available with a tap. YOUR PERSONAL GRIMOIRE A Grimoire should be alive, not just a fancy book. Carry yours in your pocket. Check what you need, add what you learn, sketch a Sigil or Bindrune when inspiration comes, or write down a spell idea before it disappears from your head. MEDITATION Some days, the only spell you need is breathing. Choose a focus — grounding, protection, manifestation, release, presence or balance — and let something as delicate as a bubble guide you into a steadier rhythm. TAROT & RUNES Pull a daily card or rune, ask a question, explore spreads and save readings that feel meaningful — or the ones that make no sense yet. Return to them later to reflect, compare and notice the patterns that only become clear with time. Featuring The Bird King Tarot by the VVitch and artist Lida Pavlova, with selected spreads from her book “The Library of Questions”. PRACTICE ALTAR Your altar can follow you. Use a photo or video of your own altar, or choose one of Liminith’s built-in spaces, to create a familiar place for your practice wherever you are. VISION BOARDS Give your intentions somewhere to gather and grow. Create Vision Boards for manifestation, direction, dreams and goals, and connect the things you’re calling into your life with golden threads. JOURNALING & SHADOW WORK For the thoughts, emotions and magical memories that need somewhere to live. Journal freely, record spell results, capture how a moment made you feel and return to your entries whenever you want to remember. The Shadow Work journal offers prompts for exploring emotions, patterns, triggers and the parts of yourself asking to be heard — even the ones usually kept hidden away. BACKUP, REMINDERS & CALENDAR Keep your practice backed up with restore tools and iCloud support across devices. Optional reminders can help you return to meditation, journaling, Moon phases, Sabbats and sky events. Bring selected Moon phases, Sabbats and astronomical events into Apple Calendar with The Liminal Year, gathering your chosen dates in one familiar place. FREE VERSION & PREMIUM Explore the core of Liminith for free and build a practice that feels like yours. Premium opens the full experience with expanded meditations, Tarot and Rune spreads, saved readings, unlimited Grimoire entries, Sigils, Bindrunes, spells and rituals, Vision Boards, personal altar uploads, expanded search, iCloud support, reminders, The Liminal Year calendar and more.

The hearth is lit. Come in and sit a while. I am Brigid — a bean feasa, a wise woman of the old Irish tradition, reader of cards, keeper of the plant-lore, the seasons, and the druidic craft. I have tended this fire a long time, and there is a seat by it kept for you. Tell me about your day, or what's weighing on you — a trouble shared is a trouble halved. You need bring no question at all. Sometimes it's enough just to sit. Draiocht is where the old Irish ways still live and breathe — tarot, plant medicine, the festivals of the year, and the myths that run beneath them all — gathered around the fire as they always were. The Hearth — talk with me Come and talk. I know the old stories, the plant names in Irish and English, the mythology beneath everything. Ask me anything, or simply sit. I remember what you tell me. I never lecture, moralise, or prescribe — I tell you what I know, and I listen. The Cards — Irish tarot A seventy-eight card deck rooted in Irish myth and the natural world — from The Wanderer on the open road to the deep Wells and ancient Stones, each suit tracing its root to one of the Four Treasures of the Tuatha Dé Danann. I sit with your reading and tell you what I see. I do not predict the future; I surface what is present and what is possible. The Green Path — plant medicine The old remedies, gathered and remembered. Meadowsweet for the head, valerian for the restless night, elderflower for the turning of the seasons. Each offered as folk tradition, as it was passed to me and as I pass it to you. This is not medicine. This is memory. The Wheel — the Celtic festivals The eight festivals mark the year as they have for millennia — Imbolc, Bealtaine, Lughnasa, Samhain, and the solstices and equinoxes between. Follow the moon. Know where you stand in the turning, and let the season shape your practice. Learn — the old wisdom, taught gently Walk the path of the cards and the lore at your own pace. Lessons and quizzes in the Irish tarot, the four suits and their treasures, the naming of the cards, and the mythology of the Tuatha Dé Danann. Or let me quiz you here by the fire. The Grimoire — your book of practice Save your readings, your remedies, your completed rituals, your own reflections. Everything gathered in one place, growing with you. Draiocht is free to begin. Practitioners who walk deeper receive unlimited conversations with me, the full lunar calendar, ritual completion, the deeper lessons, and the complete Grimoire. Draiocht — /dree-ukht/ — magic, enchantment, druidic art. — Brigid is an AI companion; her responses are generated by artificial intelligence. Draiocht presents Irish folk tradition for cultural and educational purposes. Plant information is not medical advice — always consult a qualified healthcare professional.
