13 Witchy Side Hustles for a Magical Income Stream

As a financially independant business minded woman I am passionate about helping others reach their financial goals. Blending spirituality with financial freedom is not only possible—it’s powerful. Whether you’re a green witch, kitchen witch, lunar lover, or someone just starting out on their magical path, there are creative ways to share your craft and create income.
In this post, I’ll walk you through 13 witchy side hustle ideas that are realistic, flexible, and perfect for anyone who wants to align their work with their values. I’ve also included links to some favorite tools and courses (some are affiliate links, which help support this blog at no extra cost to you).

🌿 1. Herbalism & Apothecary Goods

If you already love growing herbs or working with plant magic, this is a natural fit.
You can make and sell:

• Herbal tea blends
• Candles with natural ingredients
• Bath soaks
• Spell sachets
• Seasonal apothecary kits

Start-up tip: Begin with a few core herbs you grow or forage locally, and work with recipes you know well. Focus on creating one or two good quality products and then build from there.

🔮 2. Tarot or Oracle Readings

Offering intuitive readings can be deeply rewarding, especially if you feel strongly connected to your spiritual side. You can do this through:

• Email readings
• Live video sessions
• DM readings on social media
• Local metaphysical fairs
  

Start-up tip: Practice on friends first, build testimonials, and develop your unique reading style.

📦 3. Witchy Subscription Boxes or Mystery Bundles

This is perfect if you love curating beautiful, magical items. I have always loved this idea though have never carried it out myself. This could work really well if you connect with other witchy creators. Including local goods supports other women (we are all about supporting other women) and benefits the community. Monthly boxes could include:

• Crystal
  
• Incense
• Ritual cards or spell pages
• Vintage papers or dried herbs
• Local crafts, plants or goodies

Start-up tip: Begin with a limited quantity (5–10 boxes) to test interest. Distribute locally if you are not ready to take on shipping. 

🖨️ 4. Spell Pages & Printable Magic

Digital downloads are low-cost to make and sell well on Etsy, Ko-fi, Gumroad or Shopify.

Create:

• Printable spell pages
• Grimoire elements
• Full moon rituals
• Journaling prompt

Start-up tips: Use Canva or Procreate to create PDF pages and organize them by theme. If you are overwhelmed by the design process, pick up a PLR template pack and make if your own. I have linked a beautiful herbal template starter kit here with resale rights.

🌸 5. Pressed Flower Art & Botanical Crafts

Use nature’s beauty to create magical products like:

• Bookmarks
• Resin pendants
• Botanical prints or spell bottles

Start-up tip: Forage mindfully and follow drying methods that preserve color and shape.

You can find flower pressing kits on Amazon or I have linked a beautiful kit on Etsy.

🌙 6. Astrology Reports

With some study, you can offer custom:

• Natal chart interpretations
• Compatibility reports
• Moon phase guides

Start-up tip: Start with birth chart basics and focus on one niche (like moon journaling or Venus transits).

🕯️ 7. Candle or Incense Making

Perfect for a hands-on witch. Use natural sustainable items from your garden or repurpose supplies from thrift stores and garage sales. You can craft:

• Spell candles     
• Ritual incense       
  
• Intention jars

Start-up tip: Pick one scent/intention to start, and create a mini seasonal collection.

📱 8. Witchy Content Creation

TikTok, YouTube, or Instagram can become platforms for both education and income. Share:

• Ritual tutorials
• Aesthetic videos
• Witchy book reviews or daily cards

Start-up tip: Focus on telling a story or message. Use trending sounds or hashtags like #witchtok and #magicalaesthetic to boost visibility.

🕰️ 9. Vintage Reseller (with a Magical Twist)

Love thrifting? Create a shop with mystical or Victorian finds.  This one is a personal favourite of mine, as a witchy person, the urge to collect and curate magical collections is strong. I love scouring flea markets, garage sales, thrift stores and Marketplace for witchy items to repurpose. You can resell of on Marketplace, Etsy, eBay, and Poshmark. Bonus points for reusing items and reducing waste! Stay tuned for a full guide on starting your own witchy reseller business. 

Ideas to Sell:

• Antique apothecary jars
• Book pages and ephemera
• Crystal or botanical-themed decor
• Mystical clothing and accessories

Start-up tip: Pair each item with a magical description or “spell suggestion.”

💫 10. Energy Work & Distance Healing

If you’re certified or experienced in Reiki, sound healing, or similar modalities, you can:

• Offer distance sessions
• Sell recordings or meditations
• Bundle sessions with journaling prompts

Start-up tip: Offer short sessions at first and use testimonials for social proof. Offer a freebie like an e-book or journal template to build value in your business.

📓 11. Grimoire or Witchy Journal Design

Create beautiful, printable pages for others to use in their own craft. Ideas include:

• Moon phase trackers
• Shadow work prompts
• Spell logs or ritual outlines

Start-up tip: You can sell bundles or create custom journals through platforms like Lulu or Etsy. I have linked a journal PLR set here to get you started. 

🔥 12. Host a Workshop or Circle

Share your knowledge with others in small virtual or local events.
Topics could include:

• Seasonal rituals
• Herbal magic 101
• New moon journaling sessions

Start-up tip: Host a free mini-class first to gauge interest, you can gather feedback and it will lead to word of mouth advertising, then offer a paid follow-up.

✍️ 13. Blogging & Affiliate Marketing (Yes, Like This!)

Write about what you love: spells, plant magic, divination, full moon rituals—you name it. You can:

• Monetize with affiliate links
• Promote your products or services
• Grow your email list
• Create beautiful pins that link to your affiliate products.

Start-up tip: Consistency matters. Focus on one high-value post a week to start.

I suggest creating a Shopify landing page or Benable account to feature your links. I love Benable because it has built in affiliate programs - no need to apply to each program. A Shopify page works well as you can offer content with value - reviews, tutorials, guides and embed affiliate links organically (you can start with a free trial too). Awin is a user friendly platform to enroll in many large retailer's affiliate programs.  

✍️ 14. Garden and Plant Seller - Bonus Idea!

Witches love to nurture and grow. Use your green thumb to generate income. Grow and propagate rare houseplants. Start flowers, herbs and vegetables from seeds and sell starts or cut flowers. You can sell at markets, on Marketplace, you can even sell plants and seeds on Etsy.  

• Collect, grow and propagate rare and interesting houseplants and perrentials
• Start flowers, herbs, vegetables and collect seeds.
• Sell cut flower arrangements with witchy twists. Add cards with magical properties or spells. I have lots of botanical freebies you can add to beautiful witchy twists to your cards.
  

Start-up tip: Make sure you sell pest free and healthy plants and your customers will keep coming back.

I have linked my plant care tracker to help keep your plant collection organized. 

🧙 Closing Thoughts

You don’t need to do everything at once. Choose one idea that feels aligned and begin with small steps. Your magic deserves to be seen, felt, and—yes—paid for.
