how to do magick with roomates around?

I will be going an archaeological dig in Israel for six weeks soon and unfortunately I will be rooming with 3 other people, it is going to be virtually impossible to do my daily rituals (LBRP, BRH, middle pillar) in these enclosed quarters, I don't want to lose the progress I've made! I can't really do them astrally yet, any suggestions?, is doing them in my head better than nothing?

Forum member Tornado93 just returned from something similar. I'll see if I can get her to drop in here and offer some advice.

Yes, I was in the same situation exactly.
Because I did not excavate - I worked in the lab, while my roommates excavated, that gave me a little window of privacy. But other times I did meditations in the toilet stall. The toilet stall was truly the only private space in our dig house.
I did Resh regularly outdoors, but silently without arm movements.
Archaeologists can be contemptuous and intolerant towards occultists, so I took care.
It is a challenge. Yet I was able to keep up most of my practices.

I am also in a situation when I rarely have privacy for practices. I do Resh silently in any position when people are around and on the rare occasion when I am totally alone I do it completely. My other practices I do on my lunch break at work. I lock my office door and have 45 minutes of solitude to do LBRP, or anything else. I record some things (like Jim's lectures) on my smartphone and listen to them driving - even if others are in the care they can't hear. I did this last week driving with 7 people in a van - they thought I was listening to music. So everyone has some private time I think, unless you are in prison!
