Hey. Thanks for adopting a senior pup. They always get looked over in the shelter because they aren't 'cute' or 'new'. He has a wonderful family now and im sure will be eternally grateful to you.What a sweet boy he is!
i haven’t started practicing witchcraft but i’m looking into it and doing research on it because i’m very interested and fascinated by it. i found this very helpful. thank you. definitely will be subscribing.
Believe and always stick with white candles stay away from black candles and red candles advanced spiritualist/witches know the negative effects of using them I'm a spiritualist and healer lightworker and empath
FR E SH A VOCA DO there are a lot of guides on Pinterest/amino whatever about all the subjects and what each things mean but def starting out keep it simple!
@@kalt5532 yeah, nobody is saying that men can't be witches, but it was more often than not a way to oppress powerful or successful/independent women in early centuries. It happened to men, but way more often to women.
Oh, hahah! Then start taking notes I guess 🤣 I was a child when I started, and for the first few years I just studied and learned how all of these things work.
I've been thinking about looking into this community for a little while, and now that I'm actually diving into it, I've been noticing how positive it is. Everyone's so supportive of all the newcomers and it's very encouraging and inspiring to me. I honestly can't wait to begin-
Hello fellow witchlings! There is a Google classroom I'm in that is essentially a school for witchcraft! We have teachers, and anyone with +1 years of experience can become a teacher! Here's the join code: eo7bxnu We have a lot of students, and you will be requested to do an introduction with you're name, something about you, and preferred pronouns! Have fun!
I never really had to think about how to get started on my path. My mom ran a Coven. I am her only child , so I grew up in the Coven. That means nothing other than I have a little more experience than others. I do not consider myself to be anything other than a "Mystic Monk" and as a Solitary Witch I am "Keeper of the Shrine". My boyfriend allowed me to take over one of two spare bedrooms in his house , and thus "Bird's Nest Shrine" was created. I am an eclectic witch with a very heavy duty emphasis embracing my own Native American Heritage. Definitely Western Mystery Tradition , but I have painstakingly researched into my Tribal Culture to fit recipes , myths , and folklore to fit a Wiccan framework. My boyfriend says I have created a "brand new Tradition" based on my Chickasaw heritage that he has labeled as "Chicka-Wicca". LoL My Book of Shadows is English alphabet but in Chickasaw language. My altar is a Tribal drum , I use an arrow as a wand. My cauldron , and Chalice are pottery made from clay found only on Tribal lands. I have created a cookbook of traditional food dishes to fit the Wheel of the Year. You give off a very calming serene vibration. Would love to talk more with you. If you are interested please feel free to zap me an email at stagehandjay@gmail.com Blessed Be Or as we say in Chickasaw Chukmah
I've always been attracted to nature and magic ever since I was a child. I am not a an overly religious person but my catholic upbringing makes me scared to pursue this, and I have been suppressing it for years. I feel confused in what I was taught was good and evil, and what I truly feel on the inside. Has anyone else struggled with this?
yes completely, my parents are religious so i am scared they will base it off of the definition she read or will think im weird, but i really do want to learn about magic
I totally hear you! The first step for me was throwing away the ideas of “good and evil.” It took a long time to unravel this belief. There are positive, negative, and neutral forces/energy but neither have good and bad moral undertones attached. They just are. The phrases “It is what it is” and “everything is everything” will start making a whole lot of sense after grasping this concept. There needs to be balance between positive and negative (yin and yang). In the eyes of the universe/god there is no judgement. Unconditional love reigns supreme.
Yes! I was brought up protestant but went to catholic schools. Basically everywhere I went, there was an authority figure telling me all the things I'm drawn to are wrong or evil. Even traits that i was born with! As an adult I have to do so much work to unlearn all these things and let go of feeling guilty. It's a long and confusing journey, and you have to figure out what is good and evil to you
As a Christian witch don’t believe what others tell you or the church. You have to do your own research and look at the history. Read about witchcraft in the Catholic Church and in Christianity. They hide a lot of things from the people. Witchcraft can be good or evil just like anything. I’ve definitely been there and the best thing to do is do your own research and do what feels best.
Bless you for adopting a senior pet. Funny I was just talking about the definition of witch at lunch, parked our broom sticks at the door. LOL Silly stereotypes. Love the idea of re-initiation. I hope you are feeling better and have a wonderful blessed holiday.
I know this is an old video, but I'm a babywitch, and hearing you talk about initiation made me so emotional. I was brought to tears at the idea of finally feeling apart of something I've always felt drawn to, thank you so much
I'm trying to get into witchcraft, but I'm having a lot of issues with anxiety. I've tried a few times in the past to start exploring the community, but I always get scared off by terms like "ritual" or the idea of connecting with the spirit realm. I've heard a lot of creepy stories about demons and evil spirits and whatever else, so I think the fear of accidentally inviting those things into my life is what's keeping me from actually committing to starting my journey. Does anyone have any advice on this? And maybe some more insight into what goes on once you dive into witchcraft? I'm nervous that it's something more powerful than I can handle, or something that you can't pull away from if you decide you can't do it. (Edit: Thanks to everyone who posted helpful replies :) I've been practicing as a green witch for almost a year now)
I don't know much about all this, but I've been studying for a while. Don't be afraid😊 The spirit realm IS scary, but in my belief, it's where we come from and go to in the end of this life. I believe it's beautiful, just like Earth, but kinda different. It's a part of life. (If you believe in this) You have spirit guides, gaurdian angels, your ancestors, family, friends, God or higher power, even pets that have passed that have got your back!👍 You have yourself.🥰 Believe in those who are for you, and very importantly, in yourself!💜😁 Don't worry too much, and do what you can..! If you want to connect with it, but are afraid, you can do things to make sure you are protected, or just research about it👍 Before you do things, be confident you got this. And I believe you do! Best wishes for you on your journey! You got this, whatever it may be! Edit: Oh, ya! I'm curious! What do you mean about "too powerful to handle"..?😯 Like magick itself, or the power of the spirit realm? I'm not afraid of that, but it's force is kinda scary..! I don't mean in a bad way👍😊 One day, I will meet it. It's one of my goals/dreams..! Also, I'm not sure, but if you did connect to the spirit realm, would you be able to distance yourself from it, or would it stay with you forever..? 🤔 This is something I want to look into..! I wonder what the answer is..!
She's so cute lmao, there's always people on youtube I can really imagine seeing myself bieng good friends with, just laughing, enjoying life and bieng open and free and you are definitely on of those people. You've got a new subscriber girl. Thank you ❤️
ever since i was a kid i wanted to be a witch- i did things like i would look up spells and i would make my own fake ones with things i found outside, i kinda fell out of it after i got made fun of for it but i’m very exited to just embrace it! thanks for the video ❤️
im a vet assistant and i constantly see senior pups n kittens dealing with neglect because the owners do not love them all the same anymore. You warmed my fucking heart today and now i love you.
Within ten seconds of starting your video I felt so much positive energy and so happy, I couldn’t stop smiling the whole time. I’m a baby witch and I found this video so helpful, thank you so much!
'Notebook problem' is definitely a perfect description for me! Your video is very informative. Thank you. I grew up as a natural witch and never started my book of shadows. Spent most of my life suppressing my Claires because they scare and freak others out. My calling has always been to help others.
We have a sweet shelter cat named Queenie at my house. We did not just choose her, she chose us. As in the day she was adopted, she just walked up to my mom and me and would not leave us alone.
As someone who has been on this earth 52 yrs and woke up one day and said yes yes I am going to be a Wiccan. I have watched soooooo many videos and researched to the end of Pinterest. 😊 This has been the best video I’ve seen, plus you made it so welcoming. I truly felt like you had opened your door and said sit a spell, let me tell you what your going to need my lil baby witch. I have decided to be a Kitchen/green witch because I have discovered I’m already kinda that. My daughter even bought me a spatula last year at All Hallows’ eve, that says Witch please 😁. I saved your video and will be rewatching it again soon. Setting up my space today. Thank you Fairy Godmother!
Me: I want to learn witchcraft and start researching stuff like paganism and fae and Wicca! My ADHD: You think you could sit down for an hour and research?! You fool! You buffoon! (I actually have finally been able to start researching but it has been very hard to just research. I always just want to jump right in and I'm a very hands on learner.)
colleenallmyfriends that’s good! Try to look into your own heritage to find practices too. Using sage can often be appropriative if you’re using something not native to your ancestors. Common sage is a good alternative for things like white or blue sage
Lilac is my favorite color so this was fun to watch. I LOOOVE your sweater. I still will watch your videos even if they don’t apply because I always learn from these type of videos. I hope you have a great holiday season and a blessed Yule 💕
You were one of the only people that mention about spells and protection everybody else just kept on rambling on and you really went straight to the point and I love thattt
This was super helpful! I was raised Christian but I never clicked with it much and it just doesn’t speak to me.. I have always been very interested in learning about/researching Wicca and becoming a witch ever since I was a kid. This video really helped me, thank you so much!
Same! My first introduction to Gaia came from watching Captain Planet. I had no clue Gaia is an Earth Goddess until after I became Wiccan 25 years ago.
thank you because this video made me realize that i can do witchcraft my own way, like i thought i had to follow some strict rules and everything, but the way you explain witchcraft is more about feeling good and be creative, i really vibe with that!
I’ve always been interested in this practice. I thought maybe if I tried it, I would be imposing on this wonderful community. But the more I reflect on my life, especially with COVID, the more I realize that I’m searching for something. For a path to follow that I can create with some guidance from higher beings and a good community. And the more I realize how personalized this craft is and it really is about each person individually tailoring it to them, the more I realize how could I not feel welcome? This is everything I have ever wanted. This video has been an amazing first step for me, one I was terrified to take, on my journey. I’m so excited to research, learn, connect, and delve in more. You are such a lovely light and energy, thank you for sharing it ✨💕
I've been looking at a LOT of witch videos for getting started and I have to say yours was really informative! Usually with other videos I can't bring myself to watch all the way through but I watched this one beginning to end and now I'm sure that this is something I want to get into!
My friend helped me out in my life with witchcraft not gonna say in what way but someone wouldn’t stop gossiping about me. After it worked I’m like “WOW this is real” so now I’m here. :)
I have never clicked so fast on a video as I did on this. The whole look lured me in and then the senior pup means I'll never leave. The vibe is immaculate and I will be subscribing!!!
So I have a question, I started having short lil glimpses of things in my dreams and then some of these things come true. Nothing big but little things that I see in dreams I see in real life. I also have had this cat for years and just now when I started learning more about magick and practicing and learning things it's almost like when I touch the cat I can feel an energy from him and it's a good feeling but idk much about this stuff and was wondering if u could explain some of it?
The first thing is what would be referred to as “deja vu” or in reality a small premonition, happens to a lot of people once they start being more connected with themselves and their energy
Omg... it happens to me a lot too. It's not deja vu. It's literally my dream coming true. One time i had this dream of a place that I've never even been at, i never met those people. I didn't know they existed and that the place exists, a few months after i was at that place and the things happened just like in my dream..
I am german so i am kind of at the root of paganism since it originated from germany, but also the surrounding countrys. I just now started to look deeper into my actual cultur and I am very happy that i am so close to its core
Germanic paganism is so fascinating!! Do you study it? I grew up with indigenous american and african paganism but I've studied it from around the world. My dad brought so many interesting tidbits form around the world that I was so fascinated with learning about other pagan cultures as well. I love that paganism and earth based spirituality originated with the first people all around the world and that every culture has roots in it 💕
@@Mintfaery Thats so fascinating! I love how all of us that are drawn to witchcraft are somehow connected to each other, despite the origins, the country, the culture, we all share a similar energy and love for nature. Its like a big family that slowely starts to get in touch with each other again, stronger than ever. I took a lot of time into researching and connecting with my roots, mostly germanic, celtic and nordic paganism, traditions, rituals etc. I am so grateful that chanels like yours exist Indigenous american and african paganism ist amazing and so rich in its culture and history, I cant wait to learn everything about it
@@nomi9997 Hey, das kommt zwar ein bisschen spät aber vielleicht kann ich dir ja trotzdem noch helfen hahaha. Also was mir sehr geholfen hat und mir einen Orientierungspunkt gegeben hat, war in die Geschichte des Paganismus, des Heidentums, Schamanismus, Druidentum etc der Germanen und Kelten zu schauen. Konkrete Namen kann ich dir leider nicht nennen, aber auf TH-cam etc. findest du viele Infos, die dir auf jeden Fall weiterhelfen werden. Auch fand ich es sehr interessant mich mit der nordischen Mythologie zu beschäftigen, den Göttern, den Bräuchen und Ritualen, da diese auch deutlich in den germanischen Paganismus eingeflossen sind. Man merkt relativ schnell, zu welcher Richtung man sich hingezogen fühlt und was einen am meisten Interessiert, zu was man sich also "berufen" fühlt.
Me: *slowly realizing how much witchcraft related stuff my mom has always been teaching me, crystals, protection bubbles, smudging, and just being spiritually open.*
I've recently been getting into witchcraft over about 3 months and my little sister has been a baby witch for maybe a year and a half now? and today she helped me with a little happiness spell we found on the internet :) I'm just really glad that we can trust each other enough for me to be able to learn from her and so we can study together!
You wield an incredible light!!! Your sense of fashion is LITERALLY fashion!! I’ve been a follower of the craft for several years now and found my connection to magic dwindling as life got hard so I found your video and I just want to thank you for all of your wise words queen!! Your video was much needed! I wish I could like this over a million times 💕💕🤗
omg i really love your energy! I'm kinda new to all the witchy stuff - i've always felt attracted to the old gods and goddesses and spirits of nature. When i was a kid i really wanted to be a witch but - (you know how the people who surround you can be) was told that this would be absolute nonesense. So i gave up my intentions for quite a long time. Now i'm stumbling upon more and more of the 'witchy-community' all over the internet and still feel really connected to all of you. So i came to the conclusion, that now might be the right time to start over and give it a shot to see what i am capable of. So i just wanna say thank you - to wonderful people like you who share your knowledge and inspiration to newbies like me ;) *huggies and blessings*
I've been so depressed, I get spiritual and I'm so happy and slowly decline and become depressed again. I'm diving deep into this for extreme happiness
@@nanatiah567 so you just said god is temporary happiness and happiness comes only from god. Has he told you that or you saying that to fear monger people into the religion?
You say you want extreme happiness from being spiritual and I told you that is temporary happiness but If you seek God you found everlasting happiness and I’m not a religious person but I do have a relationship with God. I’m not dragging you to know God when God decided to revel himself to you, he will do that on his on. God bless😘
Happiness comes from satisfaction with yourself, being truly in love with who you are and having hope for the future. The God/the universe has granted us life to fill with love and joy, but sometimes the weight of the world can temporarily take it from us. It's isn't happiness that's temporary, it's pain. Joy is always there because it's what we are born with, sadness comes in every once in a while but it won't last forever.
I immediately like you and your content and subbed when you brought up the fact that you adopted a senior dog. There so much love in your heart I can already tell.
So I’ve been binging on your videos all day and can I just say you seem to be living my dream life lol the family/animals, comfy home, nature all that good jazz, your look and free spirit reminds me of my old self, I’m working on getting it back as we speak. In other words you give me life and hope lol Thankies.
I want to become a witch but I’m also catholic! I just want to make protection spells, crystals, incense and much more! Be more in ground with nature and myself is that ok/ against my religion?
hey! i’m pentecostal and i’ve been digging around a bit and i’ve noticed that people usually say that witchcraft is a practice not a religion (unlike wicca). something along the lines of that?? personally i think it’s okay, i just don’t worship the other deities or spirits that i come into contact with :) others might say to channel your energy from God?? never tried that before, idek if that would work lol.
When you think of it, christianity/catholicism is super ritualistic. Think about how you consume the metaphorical "blood of christ" or the psalms and hymns, it seems like Magick to me! Also there are plenty instances of magic happening in the Bible, so I personally believe your religion and your practice can go hand in hand.
Ok I hope this helps you cause I'm a Catholic as well in a sense, I believe in GOD strongly and catholicism helped me do that but I don't really believe in uniformed religion, the division of religion from others or a study of academic. For me I believe everything is explained through GOD, and everything is connected, from religion, science, energy, magic, and life all of it, I feel GODS energy in everything, in me and all around me so I use that and nature to heal myself, to bless tokens for myself or others, or light candles, I use it from a religious stand point but from what I believe religion is, GOD to me is everything not just one thing, and I think that if you want to become a witch you should, and find out what your magic is, mine is healing and I use what I feel from GOD and nature to do it, It felt right for me to practice and heal this way. Now you don't have to use religion to pull magic any magic to help others is never bad! If you think about it prayer is a form of magic in religion, as well as praying with the rosary, lighting candles in prayer, or blessing yourself with holy water, how is it any different? It's really not. It's all about spiritually, connection and most of all love.
You can practice catholic folk magic, I’m practicing Italian Folk magic that incorporates a lot of Catholicism into it along with paganism. I recommend Italian Folk Magic by Mary Grace Fahrun I know this is an old post but I hope it helps nonetheless
You are a FANTASTIC and AMAZING person for adopting a senior pet. You deserve all the most beautiful things in life. May you are showered with daily abundance and magick
I'm 10 months late but this was just recommended to me. I haven't watched the whole video yet, but I just have to say you look absolutely magical 🧚♀️💫
I was always so intrigued by magic and witchcraft but living in a Christian family wasn't helping my intrigued mind that's why when I am fully an adult I want to start this video is perfect for when I am ready
I have a video about his coming I soon. I asked a bunch of people to share their best practices and rituals on this. I'll post it soon. My best trick is a banishing ritual where you write them down and them burn them.
Think about something else, distract yourself, burn insense and meditate, make a charm bag or get crystals and anytime you start thinking weird or bad stuff hold the bag or crystals and repetitively tell yourself everything will be fine nothing good or bad lasts forever (or any other good sayings youd like). Its really all about you and your process. You dont need a spell hunny just believe in yourself 💖
Hey, so I know this video is about witchcraft and I really thank you and appreciate that, it's very helpful! But I just wanted to say that I LOVE your hair, and let you know that I'm probably going to steal the idea for drawing an OC, lol. Again, thanks!
Happy to see you doing your fairy godmother goodness! Great guidance for those starting on their path, and I love the idea of a re-initiation to wake up that spark!! You’re so inspiring. Also love your Spirited Away shirt. Blessed Solstice to you and yours!
Wait! Stop It! I'm a newbie doing a lot of researches, readind stuff, searching on the net...and than your video appear on the recomanded, I've seen a lot but there is something telling me to click. And here we are! I immediately felt a connection, there is something about you that gives me a sense of protection and guidance. I was in a gray place, full of doubt and questions, here a Little bit of light! It's in your energy! I will continue to study and practice, I can sense I'm on a right path. I cannot see clearly and will stay open to all the magick (just to understand and raise my knowledge) but I will surely come back here. You really are a Fairy godmother!!!
Your energy is so bright and comforting, thank you so much for this video! As a person just beginning to delve into witchcraft, this is super helpful and makes me feel a bit less anxious about my journey.
Is it weird that I woke up one day and said,"I want to be a witch."
me too! I don't know what it even was, but I started researching and never went back (:
I saw a video about it pop up and It felt like so calling
Isabella V do you have any tips for research? i get stressed, confused, and distracted easily so having someone to help me would be amazing! ❤️❤️
what a mood
One night I just heard someone in my head telling me I was magick and I was a witch-
Hey. Thanks for adopting a senior pup. They always get looked over in the shelter because they aren't 'cute' or 'new'. He has a wonderful family now and im sure will be eternally grateful to you.What a sweet boy he is!
I love senior animals they're so calm (well the ones I have) which fit my personality and life style 💕 it's a shame they get looked over :(
Agreed! Couldn’t have said it better myself 🐾

Those definitions of a Witch sound like a man who was terrified of an educated, well read, woman. Lol. It’s ok. We are working to change stereotypes.
that's literally what caused the witch-trials, either beautiful women or smart ones were the ones accused
Historically, many men were also witches. You Jane-come-latelies are funny.

I've tried a few times in the past to start exploring the community, but I always get scared off by terms like "ritual" or the idea of connecting with the spirit realm. I've heard a lot of creepy stories about demons and evil spirits and whatever else, so I think the fear of accidentally inviting those things into my life is what's keeping me from actually committing to starting my journey.
Does anyone have any advice on this? And maybe some more insight into what goes on once you dive into witchcraft? I'm nervous that it's something more powerful than I can handle, or something that you can't pull away from if you decide you can't do it.
(Edit: Thanks to everyone who posted helpful replies :) I've been practicing as a green witch for almost a year now)
I don't know much about all this, but I've been studying for a while. Don't be afraid😊 The spirit realm IS scary, but in my belief, it's where we come from and go to in the end of this life. I believe it's beautiful, just like Earth, but kinda different. It's a part of life. (If you believe in this) You have spirit guides, gaurdian angels, your ancestors, family, friends, God or higher power, even pets that have passed that have got your back!👍 You have yourself.🥰 Believe in those who are for you, and very importantly, in yourself!💜😁 Don't worry too much, and do what you can..! If you want to connect with it, but are afraid, you can do things to make sure you are protected, or just research about it👍 Before you do things, be confident you got this. And I believe you do! Best wishes for you on your journey! You got this, whatever it may be!
Edit: Oh, ya! I'm curious! What do you mean about "too powerful to handle"..?😯 Like magick itself, or the power of the spirit realm? I'm not afraid of that, but it's force is kinda scary..! I don't mean in a bad way👍😊 One day, I will meet it. It's one of my goals/dreams..! Also, I'm not sure, but if you did connect to the spirit realm, would you be able to distance yourself from it, or would it stay with you forever..? 🤔 This is something I want to look into..! I wonder what the answer is..!
Honestly I feel the same....but I feel u should ave more Faith than fear
Honestly I feel the same....but I feel u should ave more Faith than fear
Same!!
Well that's why in the video its best to have your first spell a protection one
She's so cute lmao, there's always people on youtube I can really imagine seeing myself bieng good friends with, just laughing, enjoying life and bieng open and free and you are definitely on of those people. You've got a new subscriber girl. Thank you ❤️
Awww thank you love!
You inspired me so much throughout me watching your channel
That makes me so happy!!
ever since i was a kid i wanted to be a witch- i did things like i would look up spells and i would make my own fake ones with things i found outside, i kinda fell out of it after i got made fun of for it but i’m very exited to just embrace it! thanks for the video ❤️
she actually gives off fairy godmother vibes and the hair is just perfect.
im a vet assistant and i constantly see senior pups n kittens dealing with neglect because the owners do not love them all the same anymore. You warmed my fucking heart today and now i love you.
“This notebook is going to be so personal to you and you will be using it all the time!” Me with my flimsy spiral notebook I found laying around: 👁👄👁
"sounds like fear of powerful women to me but go off" 😂 that's the whole entire mood that made me absolutely determined to do this!
Within ten seconds of starting your video I felt so much positive energy and so happy, I couldn’t stop smiling the whole time. I’m a baby witch and I found this video so helpful, thank you so much!
'Notebook problem' is definitely a perfect description for me! Your video is very informative. Thank you. I grew up as a natural witch and never started my book of shadows. Spent most of my life suppressing my Claires because they scare and freak others out. My calling has always been to help others.
Thank you for adopting a senior dog, instead of buying a puppy. I love you so so soooo much for that!! You are truly an Angel 💕💫
We have a sweet shelter cat named Queenie at my house. We did not just choose her, she chose us. As in the day she was adopted, she just walked up to my mom and me and would not leave us alone.
I love when people are this committed to an aesthetic, so dreamy
As someone who has been on this earth 52 yrs and woke up one day and said yes yes I am going to be a Wiccan. I have watched soooooo many videos and researched to the end of Pinterest. 😊 This has been the best video I’ve seen, plus you made it so welcoming. I truly felt like you had opened your door and said sit a spell, let me tell you what your going to need my lil baby witch. I have decided to be a Kitchen/green witch because I have discovered I’m already kinda that. My daughter even bought me a spatula last year at All Hallows’ eve, that says Witch please 😁. I saved your video and will be rewatching it again soon. Setting up my space today. Thank you Fairy Godmother!
She makes my spirit jump around. Loving her energy
so much appreciation for people who adopt senior pets
Me: I want to learn witchcraft and start researching stuff like paganism and fae and Wicca!
My ADHD: You think you could sit down for an hour and research?! You fool! You buffoon!
(I actually have finally been able to start researching but it has been very hard to just research. I always just want to jump right in and I'm a very hands on learner.)
Here's some great research for you. I suspect it'll be so engrossing, your ADHD won't give you much trouble. th-cam.com/video/4gXUrPC8hPM/w-d-xo.html
Don’t learn Wicca. It’s a horrible new age appropriative religion. It just steals practices from black and indigenous people
colleenallmyfriends that’s good! Try to look into your own heritage to find practices too. Using sage can often be appropriative if you’re using something not native to your ancestors. Common sage is a good alternative for things like white or blue sage
literally same
@the gays do it better no it has not. It’s a new age religion that appropriated from indigenous and black spiritualities. Just go be a pagan.
Lilac is my favorite color so this was fun to watch. I LOOOVE your sweater. I still will watch your videos even if they don’t apply because I always learn from these type of videos. I hope you have a great holiday season and a blessed Yule 💕
Thank you so much! I had been searching for a cardigan like this for so long and I love it! Got it from depop 💗
Your energy is absolutely electric love how genuine you are and that smile love it
I call it a "Manifestation Practioner" It sounds fancy
You were one of the only people that mention about spells and protection everybody else just kept on rambling on and you really went straight to the point and I love thattt
You literally seem like the most genuine and nice person ever
ok but I just wanna say that she's gorgeous omg
This was super helpful! I was raised Christian but I never clicked with it much and it just doesn’t speak to me.. I have always been very interested in learning about/researching Wicca and becoming a witch ever since I was a kid. This video really helped me, thank you so much!
Same! My first introduction to Gaia came from watching Captain Planet. I had no clue Gaia is an Earth Goddess until after I became Wiccan 25 years ago.
Your senior pup snoring is the sweetesttttttttt 🥺
My boyfriend has a long haired Chihuahua named pippin!!! I literally woke him up to watch the beginning!
Her vibes are soo positive omgggg, this is the first video I see and I already love her🥺❤️
thank you because this video made me realize that i can do witchcraft my own way, like i thought i had to follow some strict rules and everything, but the way you explain witchcraft is more about feeling good and be creative, i really vibe with that!
I really really appreciate when people get senior dogs, it always makes me so happy.
I’ve always been interested in this practice. I thought maybe if I tried it, I would be imposing on this wonderful community. But the more I reflect on my life, especially with COVID, the more I realize that I’m searching for something. For a path to follow that I can create with some guidance from higher beings and a good community. And the more I realize how personalized this craft is and it really is about each person individually
tailoring it to them, the more I realize how could I not feel welcome? This is everything I have ever wanted. This video has been an amazing first step for me, one I was terrified to take, on my journey. I’m so excited to research, learn, connect, and delve in more. You are such a lovely light and energy, thank you for sharing it ✨💕
You are the most radiant, beautiful lass I've encountered on youtube in a while!
Thank you for making the sun shine with your smile!
I've been looking at a LOT of witch videos for getting started and I have to say yours was really informative! Usually with other videos I can't bring myself to watch all the way through but I watched this one beginning to end and now I'm sure that this is something I want to get into!
You are such a joyous being of light! Thank you for making videos to spread your joy! Love you!
i’m obsessed with your laugh! you’re definitely a godmother/aunty type
Thank you for existing. I'm so excited to explore your channel!
My friend helped me out in my life with witchcraft not gonna say in what way but someone wouldn’t stop gossiping about me. After it worked I’m like “WOW this is real” so now I’m here. :)
Every dog deserves to be adored the way you adore your dog. Thanks for this video!
what a joy! thank you mint for this video. i’ve been practicing for a while, but still found this video informative. yule blessing to you and your fam
Thank you love! Merry Solstice!
I have never clicked so fast on a video as I did on this. The whole look lured me in and then the senior pup means I'll never leave. The vibe is immaculate and I will be subscribing!!!
So I have a question, I started having short lil glimpses of things in my dreams and then some of these things come true. Nothing big but little things that I see in dreams I see in real life. I also have had this cat for years and just now when I started learning more about magick and practicing and learning things it's almost like when I touch the cat I can feel an energy from him and it's a good feeling but idk much about this stuff and was wondering if u could explain some of it?
The first thing is what would be referred to as “deja vu” or in reality a small premonition, happens to a lot of people once they start being more connected with themselves and their energy
Omg... it happens to me a lot too. It's not deja vu. It's literally my dream coming true. One time i had this dream of a place that I've never even been at, i never met those people. I didn't know they existed and that the place exists, a few months after i was at that place and the things happened just like in my dream..
@@Dominikaxbla Oml exact thing with me. It's insane. And odd.
a prophetic dream?
I felt really safe here, your voice sounds so sweet and i kept felting like someone was scrubbing something on my ears
"Hi universe, this is me, with my magick I want to get money and live my best life" ME!!! PERIODT SIS AS I SHOULD
I adore seeing black creators in spaces that im curious of, thank you for being you
😟 your profile
@@ezzie12 you're a nobody
I am german so i am kind of at the root of paganism since it originated from germany, but also the surrounding countrys. I just now started to look deeper into my actual cultur and I am very happy that i am so close to its core
Germanic paganism is so fascinating!! Do you study it? I grew up with indigenous american and african paganism but I've studied it from around the world. My dad brought so many interesting tidbits form around the world that I was so fascinated with learning about other pagan cultures as well. I love that paganism and earth based spirituality originated with the first people all around the world and that every culture has roots in it 💕
Uii noch ein deutscher 😮schön das ich nich alleine bin ❤️
hast du empfehlungen für jemanden der gerade anfängt sich mit unseren wurzeln zu befassen?
@@Mintfaery Thats so fascinating! I love how all of us that are drawn to witchcraft are somehow connected to each other, despite the origins, the country, the culture, we all share a similar energy and love for nature. Its like a big family that slowely starts to get in touch with each other again, stronger than ever. I took a lot of time into researching and connecting with my roots, mostly germanic, celtic and nordic paganism, traditions, rituals etc. I am so grateful that chanels like yours exist
Indigenous american and african paganism ist amazing and so rich in its culture and history, I cant wait to learn everything about it
@@nomi9997 Hey, das kommt zwar ein bisschen spät aber vielleicht kann ich dir ja trotzdem noch helfen hahaha.
Also was mir sehr geholfen hat und mir einen Orientierungspunkt gegeben hat, war in die Geschichte des Paganismus, des Heidentums, Schamanismus, Druidentum etc der Germanen und Kelten zu schauen. Konkrete Namen kann ich dir leider nicht nennen, aber auf TH-cam etc. findest du viele Infos, die dir auf jeden Fall weiterhelfen werden. Auch fand ich es sehr interessant mich mit der nordischen Mythologie zu beschäftigen, den Göttern, den Bräuchen und Ritualen, da diese auch deutlich in den germanischen Paganismus eingeflossen sind. Man merkt relativ schnell, zu welcher Richtung man sich hingezogen fühlt und was einen am meisten Interessiert, zu was man sich also "berufen" fühlt.
You are filled with so much love, you have such a beautiful energy
Me: *slowly realizing how much witchcraft related stuff my mom has always been teaching me, crystals, protection bubbles, smudging, and just being spiritually open.*
I've recently been getting into witchcraft over about 3 months and my little sister has been a baby witch for maybe a year and a half now? and today she helped me with a little happiness spell we found on the internet :) I'm just really glad that we can trust each other enough for me to be able to learn from her and so we can study together!
You and your sister need to watch this to learn what you got into: th-cam.com/video/4gXUrPC8hPM/w-d-xo.html
I'm really scared of getting misinformed and doing something wrong and messing with something I shouldn't
wow good job scaring us
You wield an incredible light!!! Your sense of fashion is LITERALLY fashion!! I’ve been a follower of the craft for several years now and found my connection to magic dwindling as life got hard so I found your video and I just want to thank you for all of your wise words queen!! Your video was much needed! I wish I could like this over a million times 💕💕🤗
So awesome that you adopted a senior dog
You’re one of the few witches I trust, thank you so much!!
Thank you so much for making this video. I feel more calm and have an idea where to start.
omg i really love your energy! I'm kinda new to all the witchy stuff - i've always felt attracted to the old gods and goddesses and spirits of nature. When i was a kid i really wanted to be a witch but - (you know how the people who surround you can be) was told that this would be absolute nonesense. So i gave up my intentions for quite a long time. Now i'm stumbling upon more and more of the 'witchy-community' all over the internet and still feel really connected to all of you. So i came to the conclusion, that now might be the right time to start over and give it a shot to see what i am capable of. So i just wanna say thank you - to wonderful people like you who share your knowledge and inspiration to newbies like me ;) *huggies and blessings*
I've been so depressed, I get spiritual and I'm so happy and slowly decline and become depressed again.
I'm diving deep into this for extreme happiness
I wish you all of the happiness you can hold 🥰🥰🥰
Happiness come from God only, you can never be happy until you found God because that will be temporarily happiness. God bless❣️🥰
@@nanatiah567 so you just said god is temporary happiness and happiness comes only from god. Has he told you that or you saying that to fear monger people into the religion?
You say you want extreme happiness from being spiritual and I told you that is temporary happiness but If you seek God you found everlasting happiness and I’m not a religious person but I do have a relationship with God. I’m not dragging you to know God when God decided to revel himself to you, he will do that on his on. God bless😘
Happiness comes from satisfaction with yourself, being truly in love with who you are and having hope for the future. The God/the universe has granted us life to fill with love and joy, but sometimes the weight of the world can temporarily take it from us. It's isn't happiness that's temporary, it's pain. Joy is always there because it's what we are born with, sadness comes in every once in a while but it won't last forever.
I immediately like you and your content and subbed when you brought up the fact that you adopted a senior dog. There so much love in your heart I can already tell.
Omg is that In Love With A Ghost as music in the background??? I love them!
So I’ve been binging on your videos all day and can I just say you seem to be living my dream life lol the family/animals, comfy home, nature all that good jazz, your look and free spirit reminds me of my old self, I’m working on getting it back as we speak. In other words you give me life and hope lol Thankies.
I want to become a witch but I’m also catholic! I just want to make protection spells, crystals, incense and much more! Be more in ground with nature and myself is that ok/ against my religion?
hey! i’m pentecostal and i’ve been digging around a bit and i’ve noticed that people usually say that witchcraft is a practice not a religion (unlike wicca). something along the lines of that?? personally i think it’s okay, i just don’t worship the other deities or spirits that i come into contact with :)
others might say to channel your energy from God?? never tried that before, idek if that would work lol.
When you think of it, christianity/catholicism is super ritualistic. Think about how you consume the metaphorical "blood of christ" or the psalms and hymns, it seems like Magick to me! Also there are plenty instances of magic happening in the Bible, so I personally believe your religion and your practice can go hand in hand.
Ok I hope this helps you cause I'm a Catholic as well in a sense, I believe in GOD strongly and catholicism helped me do that but I don't really believe in uniformed religion, the division of religion from others or a study of academic. For me I believe everything is explained through GOD, and everything is connected, from religion, science, energy, magic, and life all of it, I feel GODS energy in everything, in me and all around me so I use that and nature to heal myself, to bless tokens for myself or others, or light candles, I use it from a religious stand point but from what I believe religion is, GOD to me is everything not just one thing, and I think that if you want to become a witch you should, and find out what your magic is, mine is healing and I use what I feel from GOD and nature to do it, It felt right for me to practice and heal this way. Now you don't have to use religion to pull magic any magic to help others is never bad! If you think about it prayer is a form of magic in religion, as well as praying with the rosary, lighting candles in prayer, or blessing yourself with holy water, how is it any different? It's really not. It's all about spiritually, connection and most of all love.
You can practice catholic folk magic, I’m practicing Italian Folk magic that incorporates a lot of Catholicism into it along with paganism. I recommend Italian Folk Magic by Mary Grace Fahrun I know this is an old post but I hope it helps nonetheless
You are a FANTASTIC and AMAZING person for adopting a senior pet. You deserve all the most beautiful things in life. May you are showered with daily abundance and magick
was just curious about witchcraft since when i hear "witch", like most people, my knee jerk reaction is skepticism. thank you, very interesting vid!
Your knee jerk reaction should be disapproval. th-cam.com/video/4gXUrPC8hPM/w-d-xo.html
That gentle music and snoring dog need to go on a 10-hour loop for insomniacs. She was making me want to nap so bad!
I'm 10 months late but this was just recommended to me. I haven't watched the whole video yet, but I just have to say you look absolutely magical 🧚♀️💫
You are a beautiful soul, I absolutely love your energy!
"smoke a lil blunt" love ittttt
Love your vibe. You feel so inclusive and personable.
that doggo is so ADORABLE!
I just want to appreciate Flowers in the background.
I was always so intrigued by magic and witchcraft but living in a Christian family wasn't helping my intrigued mind that's why when I am fully an adult I want to start this video is perfect for when I am ready
like you are just an angel and your energy is amazing! I would love to have someone like you in my life!!
Do you have spells or tricks for removing negative thoughts
I have a video about his coming I soon. I asked a bunch of people to share their best practices and rituals on this. I'll post it soon. My best trick is a banishing ritual where you write them down and them burn them.
Think about something else, distract yourself, burn insense and meditate, make a charm bag or get crystals and anytime you start thinking weird or bad stuff hold the bag or crystals and repetitively tell yourself everything will be fine nothing good or bad lasts forever (or any other good sayings youd like). Its really all about you and your process. You dont need a spell hunny just believe in yourself 💖
This too shall pass
Awesome question luv!!
Looking forward to this video, Mme Mintfaery.
I’m a new witch/ child witch and thanks for this! Luv ur fit and hair too 🩷
Hello fellow baby witch!
Hey, so I know this video is about witchcraft and I really thank you and appreciate that, it's very helpful! But I just wanted to say that I LOVE your hair, and let you know that I'm probably going to steal the idea for drawing an OC, lol. Again, thanks!
your energy is precious, every time i watch your videos i feel happy
Happy to see you doing your fairy godmother goodness! Great guidance for those starting on their path, and I love the idea of a re-initiation to wake up that spark!! You’re so inspiring. Also love your Spirited Away shirt. Blessed Solstice to you and yours!
Wait! Stop It! I'm a newbie doing a lot of researches, readind stuff, searching on the net...and than your video appear on the recomanded, I've seen a lot but there is something telling me to click. And here we are! I immediately felt a connection, there is something about you that gives me a sense of protection and guidance. I was in a gray place, full of doubt and questions, here a Little bit of light! It's in your energy! I will continue to study and practice, I can sense I'm on a right path. I cannot see clearly and will stay open to all the magick (just to understand and raise my knowledge) but I will surely come back here.
You really are a Fairy godmother!!!
MINT!!! Right in the nick of time.... Some one sweet to watch .. Thankyou! Loves you lots!😘😘😘
Thank you babe!
Your vibes are IMMACULATE. I hope you have the best of days.
I'm 11 and my backyard or front yard doesn't have anything special just plain grass and flowers but I'm not allowed to go out :(
Same :(
@colleenallmyfriends I think they mean outside their house alone or like to the park
Your energy is so bright and comforting, thank you so much for this video! As a person just beginning to delve into witchcraft, this is super helpful and makes me feel a bit less anxious about my journey.
Ah!! I love your style! :3 I look forward to watching more of your videos!
Thank you so much dear!! 💗💕🎊🎉 Happy New Year!!!
@@Mintfaery You're welcome! :3 Happy New Year to you as well!!
There are no words to explain how much serotonin you give me 🥺
