Women Are Sharing The Most Unhinged Woo Woo Things That Have Changed Their Life

"I don't consider myself woo woo at all. I do not believe in astrology at all. I think tarot cards are silly. I think the the law of attraction is a crock. But also... I'm not sure if you've noticed, but things have gotten pretty stressful. And now, for the first time, I feel like I could happily get a little witchy. Really, I will try anything to feel better!"

"And it seems like I'm not alone. Over on TikTik, one woman wanted everyone's favorite woo woo acts and rituals - and not just the boring stuff that your matronly aunt has been doing for decades. "What are the most unhinged woo woo things you do or have done that have changed your life? I'm not talking meditation, journaling, tarot, or crystals," she writes. "I'm trying to get extra weird in 2026." The comments did not disappoint! Strap in!"

""Lucky girl syndrome!!!! It made my husband make enough money and made me a stay at home wife, lost 60 lbs, launch my own business and closed on my first rental property," the most popular comment read. I had to look that one up, and it turns out "lucky girl syndrome" is when you act fortunate to attract fortune to your door. "I do somatic shaking every morning to release all the energy that isn't mine to carry from the night or the day before," another said. That's not just woo woo, it's also scientifically proven, so shake away!"

A self-described skeptic rejects astrology, tarot, and the law of attraction yet feels unusually stressed and open to trying light witchy practices to feel better. A TikTok prompt asked for unconventional, untraditional woo-woo acts and rituals beyond meditation, journaling, tarot, or crystals. Responses ranged from 'lucky girl syndrome' manifestation techniques to daily somatic shaking exercises for releasing retained energy and speaking to trees as a reflective practice. Several responders emphasized small, repeatable habits such as saying 'thank you, more please' after positive moments. Many of the practices aim to boost mood, agency, and connection with nature or community.
