The Art of Veiling

[@v01dTelevision]

i used to be muslim, and i feel more comfortable covering my hair. i feel like i will get back lash for picking and choosing rules. but im glad i can continue to veil and have it be a part of my craft!

[@honorableemmanuelngoy9771]

That’s amazing that you can still see the importance of covering your hair. 👍🏻

[@aubs965]

Hey sis I used to be Muslim too and I still like veiling. It feels deeply spiritual to me and I feel it protects my energy! Bless you ❤️

[@julieannelovesbooks]

I really don’t think it’s about picking and choosing some rules over other rules. I just think it’s important for a person to feel comfortable to go out into the world. Some people do this by wearing makeup, and others feel like a veil protects them from other people’s energies and that makes them more comfortable. I think I just see it as a separate thing? Like no matter what religion you used to belong to, veiling is now separate from that religion and integrated into a new way of life.

[@aubs965]

@@julieannelovesbooks sure it is separate but it can be related to your previous religion if you feel that connection of course. Some people will feel this way and some won't, but no matter why you veil, there are lots of benefits and reasons as to why someone would choose to veil

[@julieannelovesbooks]

@@aubs965 all I meant to say is that I don’t think someone deserves backlash for veiling when they used to be a Muslim.

[@fippy]

Hi, I'm now 54 and I have been a practicing Pagan since I was 16 and I usually cleanse my veils at the end of the day by hanging them in an open window so that the breeze can release the energy of the day from them. Great video and I love your crocheted veils too. Fip.

[@katieedmunds794]

It took me so long to understand why I kept getting migraines, and I only recently understood why. Veiling has helped so much

[@autisticmystic8540]

It’s actually not inappropriate for non-Muslims to veil using hijab-style headscarves, since that style predates Islam and is worn by Christians, Jews, and pagans in different parts of the world. No religion has a monopoly on any one style of headscarf or wrap. In fact, February 1st is World Hijab Day, and many Muslims and non-Muslims set up booths to help people try on hijab to normalize the practice.

[@sayitsayuri8951]

My friends told me that I'd look beautiful in hijab, and taught me how to tie it. They said that while it had meaning to them that ot didn't have to have meaning for me. My muslim friends were some of the kindest religious people I've met.

[@laurelizamber]

I had a lot of Muslim friends in my circles in college, and I've never met a Muslim woman who was offended by the idea of non-Muslims wearing a hijab (the specific cut of cloth intended for modesty) or trying it out for a non-religious reason. I often wore hijab when I went with them to Muslim spaces and just as a social thing to understand how they're viewed in the world. Islam is all about respect, non-judgement, and personal choices. What makes it hijab is not the cut of cloth itself but rather the intention it is worn for: obedience, modesty, and/or protection from the gaze of society - just like the tradition of veiling in Pagan and witchy tradition. So if you want to veil using a longer piece of fabric designed for use as a hijab, the general consensus (at least amongst hijabis and Muslim women as a whole that I've met in my experience!) is that you can go right ahead! It's widely considered appreciation, not appropriation.

[@gordonramsayslambsauce]

Yes! However, if you wear something as a hijab, it's respectful to cover up while doing it. Ie. don't wear shorts and a t-shirt when wearing one. It can be considered disrespectful :) Also, the way an Islamic person explained it to me was that, in their religion, women/women-aligned people are supposed to wear hijabs, not JUST Muslim women. Therefore, it's okay for anyone to wear a hijab besides men (of course men can veil, the women/enby only rule is for Islam). I may be wrong, correct me if I am ofc

[@Younce_Davies]

The ones I talk to are usually thrilled

[@Younce_Davies]

@@gordonramsayslambsauce there are Greek styles of veiling similar to modern hijab styles that can be worn with basically anything. The style is just a loose scarf drapped on the head with an end thrown over the shoulder-- usually exposes parts of the neck and chest. Most Muslims wouldn't consider that close to hijab unless there are clothes underneath that covers the skin.

[@th-ck9vl]

In some countries, it doesn't matter where you're from. It's the law to wear one, or at the very least socially required. As in you don't have to but you'll be considered rude.

[@mutilated_doll]

im a really strong & sensitive empath . i often get headaches from taking on so much of people’s energy . i can’t control who’s emotions i take on & ive been working on it for so long & it seems that i can’t do it yet so i think i should have a tool to help me , like a veil . im constantly drain & tired & i sleep for 14 hours on weekends even tho i don’t do too much cus im a high school student . i rlly need a veil to help my empathic control issues . thank you for this video !!!!!!!! helps a lot

[@BeachMum]

Hats *can* be worn in replacement of a scarf/bandana type of veil if it feels right for you. I do this with a loose beanie type of hat instead of a those because they tend to slip off my head more. As an empath and someone who has a lot of anxiety as well as suffers from migraines and too much stimulation around me, I can say first hand that this makes a huge difference! I can’t explain it, but even just wearing a pair of sunglasses on the top of my head or just a simple cloth headband (the thin/flat, but wide elastic kind meant for working out or wearing for when you’re washing your face to keep the hair out of your face) helps! I used to not be able to go out in public without forcing myself into tunnel vision due to social anxiety and suffer from migraines that would drag on for a week at a time. When doing what I mentioned instead, I feel a lot more focused, a lot more confident as well as not anywhere near as stressed out as without something on my head! I think this is why I practically live in oversized hoodie sweatshirts because I feel more comfortable with a hood on my head. The over size also makes me feel like I’m constantly being gently hugged in a way that calms me as well. I know that’s besides the head ceiling point, but up until I started doing more research into this, I never put all of these things together. Like I said, I can’t explain it why it makes a huge difference, but it does, especially for me. I almost feel like I’m a whole different person when I wear something on my head. It’s like wearing a cap to all my emotions that would otherwise just be let loose and feel all over the place. Looking back, it all clicks now, for me personally, as to why I was always wearing a hat when I was much younger growing up in a household that had higher stress levels than a typical childhood household and when my anxieties got worse along the way of not wearing anything at all on my head as I got older. I honestly feel as well that we need to stop saying don’t do this/that/that doesn’t work/isn’t allowed in terms of witchcraft or just doing what feels right to us in general. If it works/feels right, then just do it that way. It’s nice to bounce ideas off of each other to learn something new, but we truly limit ourselves when we say things like ‘that doesn’t count’ and can make some believe that they’re doing it ‘wrong’ even if there was such a thing. This is one of the reasons why I left my craft many years ago because I felt like it had to be done a certain way. After many years of finding my way back to it all, I have learned that there is no one way. There’s no wrong way. And that being different is ok especially if it works for you! Just go out there and do it that way! I wouldn’t ever tell anyone that they’re…in so many words, doing a personal spiritual practice wrong because it’s not up for me to decide what’s right/wrong for someone else especially coming from a place where we’re practicing something that already stems solely off of other practices that are made up from someone else further down the line somewhere in history. Hope none of that came off as harsh or rude, because that’s not my intention. I’m glad you’re spreading info about things like this, but we just need to keep an open mind about we share that info keeping in mind that we’re not all on the same path. Also, it’s important to also keep in mind for others out there to take what you want from these messages and leave the rest of it doesn’t work for you. Had someone told me years ago that veiling (or any other spiritual personal practice) is only done a certain way, it would have driven me further away from this path.

[@AnotherSkyTV]

Yep, hoodies and beanies work just fine. They don't look as cute as a scarf, though. But you have tomboy vibes instead 😆. I think hats actually had some meaning to them historically too, that was lost, so idk if saying that only scarves work is true.

[@BetteTwain]

As an empath I can’t believe that I didn’t know about veiling till now 😳 I can’t wear a bandana at work would a headband work? Or is it not enough?

[@AuraoftheForest]

A headband would work! Just set your intentions and cleanse after work💜

[@toemeats]

I am an extremely sensitive witch, and I'm new to the practice. I tried veiling (using a bandana bc my family wouldn't say anything abt it) and I found that it increased a positive mood within myself greatly. I would like to veil more often, even on extremely sensitive or drained days using a long scarf, but I'm too scared of what people would say, and especially scared of me wearing one being cultural appropriation. The last thing I would want is to offend people. Does anyone have any advice on what I should do?

[@featherghost1085]

Hi!! I know I'm kind of late, but this may be of help. It's not cultural appropriation as long as you wear it in a way that isn't specific to a religion or anything like that.if you wanna be sure about not having cultural appropriation, If you research hippie ways to wear a bandana as a headscarf, you can be sure that it's not cultural appropriation, because if not the hippy style would be frowned upon constantly, and I've never heard anyone saying bad stuff about how they wear them.

[@th-ck9vl]

Get an infinity scarf and just let the bottom hang so it looks like a big O hanging from your head. Literally nobody but hippies do that so nobody would think twice and question it. Also, look at some 50's headwraps, or whatever culture your family comes from, if you're American. Pretty much every country has its own style, and even shared styles. I feel the same way and I'm wondering how it works. I don't understand how a piece of cloth can have so much power to it. I don't really believe it keeps energy contained or from being extended. Because, I mean it's cloth lol. So, I wonder why and how it works.

[@valpukejuice4979]

hi i’m mexican n that has almost 0 to do with my advice but it has some potential in me saying i’m how u feel abt not wanting to offend someone but i wanna let u know like if u live in california or a gang populated area pls be careful with wearing a bandana out in those areas cus it’s very dangerous n u may be mistakes for a gang member. if ur not tho, i say wear it however u want. my positive advice tho? wear ur bandana as a lil bow on ur head! tons of tutorials on it n i did it a lot when i didn’t wanna cause suspicion in places like LA.

[@AnotherSkyTV]

Wear a hoodie, problem solved 😂. Maybe not as pretty as a headscarf, but people won't mistake you for a muslim for sure.

[@observer4292]

I didn’t realize I was veiling for awhile, but I for sure knew I felt more comfortable under my scarf! It wasn’t until I started attending my temple that this practice really opened up to me in various forms. I’ve become a lot more aware and conscious of my hair and the energy it holds since having dread locks for a couple years too. I love learning more on this topic, especially from different perspectives! I was hoping you’d share more on yours, so thank you very much! I love what you said about untying the knots, I definitely leave mine in often. Blessings to you! 🧚🏻‍♀️🤍

@Anna's Mind 444 she wasn't saying that veiling is ghetto, she said her school is in a ghetto area. And in these areas (I would know, my Jr high was the same), covering your head may be seen as a way to signal that you are you are a gang. For example, in my Jr high we couldn't wear bandanas of any kind and they also banned rosaries bc gang members started wearing them to signal what gang they jumped in to. Yes, there were Jr high schoolers in gangs where I grew up. Sad but true.

@@AuraoftheForest I would like to buy a vail from you, how do I get a hold of you through email?

[@oliviaparr8932]

if you chose to vail do you have to every day?

[@alixwithani8250]

You can veil as much or as little as you need or want to! Including never, or just a bit at first, or just outside the house or just during rituals

[@thegaybestie6785]

This was a really great video since I just have started with witchcraft and I feel that this is pretty easy, one thing I was wondering was I dont have any incensen so I there any other way I can cleanse it or charge it with my intention without using incensen?? (Sorry for my bad spelling) Great video btw ❤

[@AuraoftheForest]

You don't necessarily need any tools in order to utilize your energy and your intention! The material tools like incense and crystal we use only enhance the energy that we already have within us, not create more.

@@AuraoftheForest Okay thank you :))

[@beansp139]

I saw a thing one time saying that you could veil by braiding a piece of your hair with intention, is that true or is that’s called something else?

[@AuraoftheForest]

It could be a way of protection! Native Americans speak positive affirmations and love for themselves and family while braiding their hair. Hair has a lot of spiritual energy and spending time caring for it with intention would be great!
