Magic Jar and Further Spellcasting

[zimmerwald1915]

Well, this is a pretty straightforward question, so in that spirit, I'll come right out and ask it. If you cast Magic Jar and possess another body, can you still cast other spells, your spells, out of your spell slots? The Magic Jar description notes that you don't have access to the possessed creature's spells, and I've read the threads in this forum suggesting rulings for which buffs transfer over, but I'm more concerned with spellcasting itself. Can you cast your own spells when possessing another?

If the form you are now in is capable of making whatever verbal and somatic components of the spell. You would also need whatever material components as you likely find yourself not carrying a spell component pouch...

...unless you're a Scarred Witch Doctor. Then your new body needs to have enough Constitution to allow you access to your spells. Or you depended on stat-boosting gear that stayed with your own body.
