I recently listened to a podcast featuring 'Old - Hag', in which she spoke about how so many people claim to be a witch or follow a religion, but don't put anything into it. They are not for lack of a better term 'practicing'.
And this made me think; is this me?
Do I label myself but not follow through?
Do I perform enough magic, to classify as a witch?
The answer is that every time I light a candle, every time I draw down the moon, every time I put my intentions out into the world, every time I wear a crystal for guidance. every time I read tarot, every time I meditate, every time I let the bath water run down the plug hole before leaving the tub, every time I bake with love, every time I use herbs for healing - all of these things are magic.
In my heart I feel so strongly connected to divination and candle magic. I am drawn to mirror magic, and adore reading tea leaves.
It's not a lie, it's not a fad, this is my life - and in every thing I do, you can find my inner witch.
It's inside all of us.
How can it not be, women especially with our connection to the moon and the tide.
We are made of power.
We are the goddess.
I agree with Old-Hag, there are many people of little faith out there from all religions who claim to be something, they simply are not.
But what does your heart say?
You can't expect good things to come from your religion, if you are not practicing.
How does mother earth know you're calling, if you don't take the time to get outside?
