    I'm still baffled at the fact that he charges crystals but is scared of witchcraft. I'm sure he'll keep blowing candles out on his cake as well and not even know it's candle magick.

    I mean I'm a Wiccan, and what if someone did this same thing but for Christianity? "I became Christian for a day." If someone did that and made fun of it as much as Buzzfeed and Colleen did, then there would be an uproar. Buzzfeed and Colleen are lucky they didn't get canceled. I really do hate how much Hollywood and Christian/catholic Beliefs influenced the larger public's view of witchcraft. They should at least apologize.

    Lol I remember when I had family members actively ban me, my siblings and cousins from watching Harry potter because apparently to their closed minds, the franchise properly represents witchcraft and the pagan religions.
    (Also the same kind of person that forbade her children from participating in Halloween, which i can understand more than Harry potter lmao)

      JK Rowling has said herself that she wrote the books with Christian values and doesn’t encourage witchcraft so I find people who won’t let their kids read Harry Potter hilarious.

    The mark of a truly skilled witch is resourcefulness. Magick is in everything around us as well as within us. You don't need to buy herbs that were poached off of native lands or have the biggest collection of gemstones (which, depending on where you got them could be fakes, chemically treated or unetchically sourced, like you said). Colored glass can work just as well to represent gemstones as long as you infuse the intention, grocery store herbs or herbs you grow at home can work just as well, maybe even better than plants associated with a closed practice you probably aren't part of (like how smudging is specific to certain Native American cultures).
    The tools are secondary and are really just meant to help focus the intention and energy, they aren't required and they don't make the magick, you do.

  • @ElvenWisdom
    @ElvenWisdom 5 ปีที่แล้ว +25

    So true about wands & material things..you don’t need them to do magic. Magic happens with just intentions and a conscious will, and it’s not about the “stuff”.

      I love Colleen and Cory but it’s understandable why people are upset over this. As a witch myself it’s upsetting how we’ve been depicted as being “evil” by Christianity. Colleen and Cory were very misinformed at the time when the video was made and it would have been nice for them to do more research rather than just googling, then they’d have understood more about our practices and religions.

    Magick is in literally everything, and everyone, so yes. Anyone can become a witch. It's a practice, not a bloodline talent, this isn't Harry Potter, there's not, "pureblood witches."
    A heritage witch is someone whose practices and traditions have been taught by their family, parent to child, or grandparent to grandchild, so-on, for generations. It's family history, not genetics.
    Now, I do believe there are some people who spiritually are more pre-disposed to being a witch, when I personally say I was, "born a witch," it's not because it's an ancestral bloodline thing, and it certainly wasn't taught to me by my mother's Catholic family or my father's Baptist family. I say that because feel that, "witch," is part of my spiritual identity, it's part of what I was made for, part of what I'm meant to do, "witch," is part of the way I was designed by the divine.
    I think, those of us who have felt pulled and called to witchcraft and magick and mythology and mysticism have this in common, being a witch is part of who we are, or at least who we're meant to be. We still have to practice and learn and work at it. Just because we have a certain connection to witchcraft, doesn't mean we don't have to work at it as much as any other practitioner. Magickal practice is mostly study, gathering knowledge and trying things, very little of it relies on pure talent.
    But, that's just my interpretation of my journey and what brought me to the practice to begin learning and calling myself a witch. Witchcraft means something different to everyone. For some people it's part of a spirituality, for others it's manipulating physical energy with the mind, for others it's a placebo that encourages mindfulness.
    Whatever witchcraft means to you though, being a witch isn't in your blood. It's just in you and in your connection to whatever witchcraft provides for your life.

    Summary I took away from this: Don't be anything you see in this video (The one you reviewed).
    Never go by one result alone; research, research, research, and then you research that research. Study and do your homework on your research, continue and repeat. Been doing Witchcraft for years and this is how I began actually, and it's how I explained it to my niece who took interest in learning, she's been a Witch for three years now and it has been pretty nice teaching her what I know but also myself learning from her perspective. (She's a Green Witch and I'm a Hearth Witch.)

    It's so strange coming across a video talking about your comment lol. I think I made the comment you were talking about on her video. You're correct in thinking I was trying to make a point. I think I wrote something along the lines of, I dare you to do a video about becoming a Jew or Muslim for a day. But of course you wouldn't because of the backlash. Something like that anyway. But she removed the video not long after that. And I'm glad also because I did see it as disrespect at the end of the day. The Windex thing tipped me over lol. Like look it up beforehand you know? I don't mind her doing the video, just do it respectfully. She wouldn't make jokes about mainstream religious practices. Bet yeah it was just a point. Glad you got it and agree 😊💓

      Joking about it on such a large platform is offensive, whether she intended to do so or not. Spreading misinformation can result in violence or a negative bias against real witches. Witchcraft isn’t a joke and the fact that it was used as a such on a large platform is at the very least rude. As a witch, I’m fine with little jokes among friends, but there is a huge difference between that and portraying it to millions of people who don’t know any better.
