I filmed this video in 2020. I then only edited it last year, and I've sat on it since November. Why? Because I sat on it thinking, "Do people really need this video again?" But I thought about it, ran it across all my friends, and figured, yeah, we do. It never hurts to go over basics again, and it also never hurts to have a better, new and improved version of something that many people stated that they felt helped them so much early on. Hopefully, it's still helpful.

I’m new to the practice and I used the term “baby witch” to a priest of a coven and he said “no you’re not helpless you’re not a baby, you’re just new.” And that totally hit me. I learned that term online and I realized I have been keeping my socializing with witches digital. Now that I’m finally opening up in person it’s so different! That’s one of my biggest tips is find like minded people and learn from each other! Talk to them in person and raise your energy and theirs it’s so life changing.

"Magic is just science we don't understand" is such a reasonable, healthy perspective. I'm agnostic, science-seeking, but I've always been deeply drawn to witchery, rituals, and spiritual/scientific unknowns. It's been hard to embrace that piece of me because I don’t want to seem "woo woo" or crazy. Thanks for emphasizing that being a witch doesn't mean you don't believe in science and/or believe in the supernatural. Science and the mundane should always take priority. Mad respect!!

When you talk about magick being science that we don't understand yet, I immediately think of the placebo effect. I know many people use it as a way to discount the effects of drugs and treatments, but witchcraft fully embraces the importance of one's mindset. Other than that it exists, the field of psychology hasn't really established how it works, only that it can be surprisingly strong (sometimes as strong as morphine in studies on pain).

For me I have always loved magic and fantasy but because of mainstream media I thought witches are mainly bad. But I always kind of knew I was a witch. A subconscious voice or well my faery companion telling me I will find out in the right time when I am at my lowest. Which happened last year. Now I remember how I used magic to heal from mental wounds. And to be strong and independent. And I still do that now while also trying to help people. And I always worked with fairies/faeries/spirits/mythological creatures and nature. But I also always did Lucid dreaming/ outer body experiences (but I am very sceptic of the outer body experience part) and I like to work with divination. Now I am celebrating Imbolc. all these years I always wondered why I used to feel so powerful and happy in around this time (and around Ostara). why could I sense the spring coming while it was still snowing outside? With witchcraft everything starts making sense.

"Just because we're able to explain something shouldn't make it any less magickal." For a while now, some jaded part of me has held me back from learning things in general (very uncharacteristic of me) because it believed I "would lose that magical feeling of wonderment" for whatever it was. I now firmly believe I was drawn here to hear that. Learning is what keeps the magickal feeling alive. Thank you and looking forward to learning from you.

I believe science and magick go hand in hand, science is there to explain the mundane things that we can, and magic exists to show that not everything can be explained. 🖤 Although science is finally catching up to us, crystal energies have been proven, astral projection has been proven etc.
@thepeopleslibrary86732 жыл бұрын
Don’t want to say anything, but “crystal energies” and “astral projection” have not been “proven”. Indeed, a lot of practitioners themselves don’t like those concepts as they are, they’re pretty New Age. What is indeed proven is that everything material is energy at different rates of vibration. Yes, this is true and we know that scientifically today. The fact that time doesn’t really seem to exist in a subatomic level (very small scale) is probably the most recent interesting discovery that magicians hypothesized and predicted correctly many years ago. The “astral projecting” thing is a little odd. You don’t leave your body, you are connecting through your inner worlds to receive information from the outside world. But yeah, this hasn’t been fully tested or proven. Though I believe it’s very likely to be true that all minds and matter are literally connected by some underlying essence that we can’t yet measure.

I'm so happy that you decided to go ahead and post this video, because you covered so many things that I still see around on the internet, Quora is a big one, that I feel shut beginning practitioners out and make the witchcraft and occult space seem closed off when it really isn't. Hurdles that I see a lot of now that a lot of beginners may have a hard time getting over are labels (titles) and organized spaces (covens, specifically Wiccan-based). I see a lot of negative gatekeeping in these two areas; "You can't call yourself THAT, it's not a real term!", "A male practitioner is a WARLOCK not a witch", "You can't use those tools because only the High Priest/Priestess can!". Now, like you said in the video I completely understand that titles/labels matter in an organized setting and that not everyone who is a magical practitioner will be comfortable identifying as a witch but when you push your own practices onto someone else as truth and law, especially to a beginner, that's just not okay and it frustrates me greatly to see this being done so much. The last thing that I think is a big hurdle, because it was one of my own when I was first getting started and I really appreciate you addressing it, is the fact that beginners really need to know that they do not need "all the things" to be a practitioner. When I first started dabbling in witchcraft back in '08-'09, anytime I tried to look up spells they were always so complicated and required lots of different tools (some I had never heard of), long lines of incantations, and it was all very ceremonial in style. I can't think of a single resource I tried to find that gave me alternatives to the tools used in the spell or even a simpler spell that I could have scrounged up what I needed in the kitchen. It's imperative that this information reaches the ears of beginners, but that we who may be more experienced even get reminded of it often, so thank you so much for going ahead and posting this video.
