Abundance as Enough: Guarding Your Increase

Episode 5: Abundance As Enough

In this first episode of 2026, we’re not talking about jackpots or grand manifestations. We’re talking about the kind of abundance that looks like ‘enough, held and minded’ in the very real circumstances of your life.

In this episode of Living Irish Witchcraft, Lora O’Brien looks at abundance through an Irish lens: not as limitless individual gain, but as steady increase that actually stays in the house and supports the household. Drawing on Irish folk tradition around butter, milk, and household luck, Lora explores how our concern is often less about attracting more, and more about noticing where things are quietly leaking away.

This isn’t about pretending hardship isn’t there or magically making systems fair. It’s about taking up one small, honest piece of power in your own home, and using it well.

Today’s Practice

A simple house based practice for guarding your increase, using one small working space, three ordinary objects from your real life, and a short spoken charm:

‘I stand in my own home, and I name what feeds me.
The work of my hands and my mind earns enough for my keeping, and I let that be true.
What’s mine by honest work and right exchange stays with me and with my household.
I watch where my money goes, I watch where my strength goes, and I choose with clear eyes.
Beir Bua.’
