When she was talking about elemental all I could think was: and everything changed when the fire witches attacked
I was looking for that comment thank you lol
SAME
SAME DUDE

lmao
Rule No.1 to be a witch:
Become an eye shadow goddess
I'm (biologically) a dude and I even learned eyeshadow lol. Don't like much makeup, but I love eyeshadow and witchcraft
Cody Mason love that
Pffft true! Just look at Ella Harrison
*when youre allergic to most make up (including eyeshadow) and a witch* "so am I not a witch? :("
sulvithotiaosa bitidybuinches king shit!
I am a very new baby witch, this is the beginning of my research, and hearing the "you may not even choose a direct path" made me ease and I appreciate so much that you assured all of us that
Same, but seeing as this was 4 months ago, you probably aren't as new as me lol
Im a baby witch too! So any beginner tips on how I start??
@@emblight4077 oh wow it’s been that long already, i’ve really just been making certain jars and cleansing, but i hope to make lots of progress in the future :)
@@jenjen_oreo lots of research is always good
@@jenjen_oreo I know it's been three weeks since you posted this, but I'll give some tips anyways.
1. Books are your best friend.
2. Make sure you double or triple check any sources you find.
3. Crystals! Crystals are your second best friend. They can aid you greatly, and bring about prosperity, wisdom, protection, ect. Just do your research.
4.You can make a book of shadows/ grimoire. It's a choice. The things I listed are books you use as a sort of diary, which you can write spells, experiences, and how you practice in them.
My parents have no idea I’m a witch yet my room is filled with pentagrams crystals and weird things I found in the woods
love that for u sister witch♡
My parents don't know too haha i'm on it building a smal altar right now 😹
This is so funny, but I'm glad your able to practice.
😂
Same like my parents don't even know about witches
I'm new in magick, but I'm studying to become a green witch and in the future a kitchen witch. I love watching your videos, keep it up 💖🌌
That's wonderful! It's always exciting to find someone working on a similar path as my own and thank you you are too sweet!
Chiara Abril How far have you come so far?
*@ Chiara*
You don't have to be one or the other. You can be a Green Kitchen Witch or a Traditional Hedge Witch.

There is no reason to limit yourself with labels. 🧙♀️
me too!! primarily a green witch and id love to begin practicing kitchen witchcraft
heh, i was the 666th like on this comment
Personally I love to use the term Tea Witch. I use tea to fix everything, physical and spiritual and am learning how to make my own tea blends. I also love my tarot cards, crystals and candles ♥️
VintageFaire101 If you are ever looking for tea inspiration there is this shop in Chattanooga, TN! Their teas are literally magickal. They are called Wildflower Apothecary and they have a website as well
When u said tarot cards, crystals and candles I'm automatically there xd
Where do you get your ingredients for tea blends?
@@Omnomnomfish Mostly Mountain Rose Herbs. Sometimes I'll pick up herbs from various farmer's markets too. I tried to grow my own but I seem to have a bit of a black thumb and can only keep my mint and basil alive.
Probably me to!!
I am an Eclectic Solitary Witch. I center on crystals, stones, sun, moon, nature, color, candles, aromas, and empathic practices.
YES THIS. I'm new at this and most relate to your comment
I as well relate. i am an Eclectic Green witch. I mostly focus on herbs and nature, but I also focus on astrology, spirits, crystals, empathy, and oils!
This is what draws me the most
@@seonggi-hun1612 same here. Thank you for your reply.
Same!! So nice to see someone else comment the same things I'm practicing an know I'm not alone, I still believe in God and other gods/goddesses an made me conflicted thinking I was blaspheming my old religion in a way I believe in the Catholic God an Jesus but still believe there are other gods/goddesses he made (duality) an still like to practice witchcraft
Although I am delighted and excited that so many are starting their Spiritual journey with Witchcraft. I'm 60 years old, and have been a practicing witch for 47 years. I've dabbled in every genre of the craft, focusing on different specialty areas depending on what was going on in my life at the time. In my current lifetime, Witchcraft has drawn a lot of attention, both positive and negative. It is now the fastest growing Spiritual practice in the world. This is where my concern about the many LABELS being put on the multitude of focus areas folks are studying. I hate to see us fall prey to the divisiveness created by these labels. It reminds me of the many denominations of Christians, like Catholics, Baptists, Jehovas Wittness, Methodists, Mormans...etcetera. These labels have done more harm to the community of the "Church" than good. I prefer not to limit myself with a label, and as you mentioned, Witchcraft is a Spiritual practice as opposed to a religion. I am a Witch. That's enough of a label to serve my purposes.
You are a wise gifted lovely woman. ❤💖🎶✨🎶💖
Thank you so much for saying this❤❤❤
I totally agree 💜
❤
I love how everyone in the comment section is so nice, understanding and supportive. 💜
me too I found my friends
Aww we are all here to choose our different paths and that is a little different from the human world just a little so yeah we have to be understanding .
And I really found out who I want to be
When your family doesn’t support witch craft ✌🏻
I've been a Solitary Eclectic Witch for a couple of years now.. While I'm very open about it to my husband and a few very close friends, my family don't know and never will know the path that I have chosen and only because they had raised me to be a Christian! I left their path and found my own truth! Find your truth too x
Same do
Mikah Wisdom same
Mikah Wisdom I’ll support you
:)
saaaammmmeeeee
I never understood the term "Hedge witch", but with your explanation, I realised I was actually one of them. Thank you!
I thought they made hedge mazes as some magical practice or something lol
👏
Me either! I just assumed, oh, witch who goes out into the hedges and forest to practice - that's me! *Nope.* I have zero skill in that area. I never knew the word "hedge" had that 'crossing the barrier' meaning. XD
@@voyance4elle by h hey
Hey friend.
Currently I feel "Cottage Witch" describes my practice best, its a mixture of Green witchcraft and House witchcraft! 😊
I’m a sea witch, I don’t think I’ve ever seen sea witches talked about on TH-cam before 💕🐚🧜♀️
Also a sea witch here, I am very private about it, though. I wonder if maybe a lot of us are and that is why we are not on TH-cam with it?
I love sea magick
I’m a Sea Witch too!
Same 🧜♀️👋
Sea, storm, weather in general.
Hi, I just stumbled on this video.
I am a hereditary witch, one of the few families of witches, that escaped the witch hunt in Germany. I was taught the craft by my mother's side of the family.
I use music in my craft, rhyme my spells or sing old ones, like the merseburger zaubersprüche(2 spells, one against PTSD and the other for sprayed horses ankles, they're the oldest spells still in existence.)
I majored my school with a paper about alchemy, grow succulents, my familiar is a bunny and my spirit animal is a European Robin.
My main focus are handcrafted Items like woven carpets, knitted clothes, sewn purses, drawn tarot cards, crafted Charms and charm/Herb bags. But my main focus are crystals.
Can you tell me more about the traditional witchcraft rooted in Germany? I am based here and would love to know more about the regional history
@@Lealinchen97 Germany had one of the scariest and infamous witch hunters of all over the course of 2 years(1628-1630) he burned about 300 witches and Wizards at the stake. He worked in a small village near Arnsberg (Balve) and was called Kaspar Reinhard.
Since 1993 the victims of the witch hunt got rehabilitation all over Germany and got multiple memorials, including Winterberg, Balve and on the Brocken or Blocksberg(the mythical place rumoured to house the walpurgisnacht dance of witches, now housing it every 30th of April. ).
But town specific you can read the stories most of the time for free in the archives of your own town.
Omg sooo cool
@@illiengalene2285 Wow! Thank you so much Illien. This gives me a lot of keywords to research. I'm intrigued.
@@Lealinchen97 a pleasure to help you. If you want to go to the walpurgisnacht, I will be there too.
New baby witch here! So I just started my research and found your channel. It's already very helpful :) When I was 15 or so I wanted to become a marine biologist since I've always been fascinated by the oceans and seas. In two years I'll hopefully start my Master in Marine Biology, so when you mentiond the Sea Witch I gasped! :D
It was the same for me omg , but for nature etc
I feel like I'm definitely a solitary eclectic witch. I've always liked the idea of not being tied down to a specific label/path in witchcraft. I like to create, whether that be new spells, or something more practical, like a new song. And one of my sayings has always been, if you can't see any other options, make your own option.
Be careful though, im very solitary, only seen evidence of elementals, i guess pshycics areas too. I believe some can be alright but depends on the leader if they decide to. Blind obedient which leads to tyranny. Sad too, cause they only have that power from feeding on it which only impresses them more and cycle begins. However, they do prove the value of gaining it through your own will. Desperately so. Like non stop effort for just one of us. Once you find your source, youll see how they need and use every single other in the realm of the physical because that was their drive. |ts very weird how strongly tied magic and logic are. Thats what truly stunted by journey. Total irony
I honestly feel like a mix of Kitchen witch, Cosmic witch, green witch, music witch, and I am solitary witch. ( I am also Christian)
I'm a Christian too and I was worried that it might be considered a sin but ive seen so many Christian witches I've just decided to do itttt
@@charley2475 there’s no problem with that you can have god as a deity and work with other spirits/deity’s there’s no limit to your belief
Wow, dude, I'm Christian and kind of interested in maybe giving witchcraft a shot; have you got any tips?
omg i’m a christian too, i found my people lol
@@chiara4437 Congratulations! 🤣🤣
Hi, I'm a hedge witch. I've been fighting being one all my life, and after nearly 60 years I'm finally coming to terms with it.
Thank you for the video.
Im a green witch
I just watched this video and decided to look more into "the hedge witch".. I can't find ANYWHERE besides here where a hedge witch is said to be connected to spirit world and the hedge being referred to as the boundary between worlds... all I can find is about them described almost exactly as a kitchen witch and the hedge being the herbalism part of their practice not the boundary. Just wondering your opinion. Any book recommendations?
I have had the same since i was 8 and IT was scary but now i AM 31 and came to terms with it
I don’t feel the need to label myself at the moment because I’m all over the place but your definition of eclectic witch is fitting for me. I dabble in all of it and am learning what I love. Very drawn to nature, especially trees and the ocean, herbs, spirits, divination. I just found your channel today and wasn’t really aware that all of my interests throughout my life are leading me down the witchcraft path. Pretty cool!
I am a Mexican American non practicing catholic who is very disillusioned with religion in general. Witchcraft is something I have been interested in since I was a child (I idolized Morticia Adams growing up). I feel like I actually come from a long line of kitchen witches. Both my grandmother and my mother always worked magic in the kitchen, I personally have always felt comfortable in front of the stove and with wooden spoon, bowls and herbs. I am probably going to start my path as a kitchen/ green witch. Thank you for your channel , it’s been so helpful to me!
I’m in touch in nature so much...roses, jasmine, candles, magik and astrology. I think I would be a floral witch haha🌷
That sounds like a wonderful path to follow!
Oh my gosh, I'm the same exact way! I haven't found anyone else who identifies as a floral witch! ☺️ I haven't started practicing my craft yet (Christian parents) but I've done a good amount of research, and I honestly think floral witch describes me the best. 💖💐
oursparklingplanet yay! I want to practice follow this path. I am starting it right now, hope we can be friend 🌸🦋
I’m Eclectic witch that focuses on ancestry for spiritual guidance more common in brujeria or santeriá ( witchcraft of African, Latinx and Caribbean culture)
That's so cool, I personally practice north African witchcraft (one of the oldest type of witchcraft in the world) it's a mix between pagan and Egyptian witchcraft
@@mdrrnon6863 hey do you have a few links or sources where I could educate myself on that kind of witchcraft? I'm a baby witch and I'd really love to discover more stuff on my origins (I'm of Berber descent)
( Also are u french because if so wesh la famille)

This was SOOO helpful! I've always felt so drawn to water. Lakes, Rives, Oceans! I've collected sand, shells, and even bones of dead water mammals not knowing why! I'm a Sea Witch! I feel so drained being land locked [lived in Oklahoma] but as soon as I moved back to the Gulf Coast I felt alive! It all makes sense! Amazing! Thank You!
i love the way you explain/describe all of the information 🤍 it’s very helpful and comforting
Music Witches: Stevie Nicks, Florence Welch, Maggie Rogers, Lorde, Lana Del Rey, FKA Twigs, BANKS, Azealia Banks, Grimes there’s way more! Who else can you guys think of
Raveena Aurora is a big one for me

Abyss Witch. I found over the years that I came to specialise in helping people come back from the edge of despair: people who are stuck staring into the abyss. I always attract / connect with people who are struggling with debilitating mental illnessness, crises and suicidal thoughts. I've been wondering for some time about how I could create a unique practice or interactivity that could help people focus on, express and understand their circumstances, wants and needs, psychology and behavioural patterns in order to regain clarity, calm and control. Basically, I'm interested in empowering people to not to fall into their own abyss, but also to not be afraid to stand on the edge of it and look in. If anyone has any ideas or thoughts about any of this I'd love to hear what you think. 💜😊
I'm just now learning about Witchcraft, but what you've said really piques my interest. All my life I've been drawn to people that are struggling, and I've always done my best to help them-- often times succeeding. It would be really awesome if that could be incorporated into practices. Personally I'm still in the researching stage but Abyss Witch really connects with me! I hope that can be made into a thing
@@aslan699 My own self-directed studies have lead me into researching Childhood Emotional Neglect (CEN), the effects of childhood trauma on the body and behavioural patterns, attachment traumas in adult relationships, cultures of silence and suppression, and ways we crush ourselves into deep misery by not being our authentic, empowered, unique selves. I've found some really great TH-cam channels on childhood and adult relationship trauma - Crappy Childhood Fairy, and Alan Robarge - that have given me a lot more material to understand suicidal and chronic depression. They say really poignant stuff no psychologist, psychiatrist or counsellor has ever said to me in 20 years. Stuff that really applies not only to my own experiences but to those I've supported through their own suicidal experiences over the years.
Knowledge is power!
Perhaps you might also find their discussions helpful and eye-opening like I did as they are so useful in understanding the lived experiences and the day-to-day details of how prolonged suffering creates crippling effects like emotional dysregulation.
I'm really curious to explore ways that symbology, objects and personalized rituals can be used to help people cut through the cyclones of their own thoughts and give them clear, actionable paths out of their suffering and towards calm self-mastery, like stepping stones across a raging river.
There's so much to think about! :) :)
Just uh... make sure you don't burn yourself to keep others warm. I attracted many people in despair, but also many toxic and manipulative people who took advantage of the unique way I help others. So I think being an abyss witch is a cool idea, but I think making sure you do your research (I mean you probably already have but I'm putting this out there for anyone who needs it) of red flags, understanding toxic energy, cleansing yourself before engaging with those that are sick, and cleansing yourself after, and an understanding of psychology and relationships.
But yes! You go be that Abyss witch! Maybe even consider being a crisis line volunteer! We need energy workers in those fields who have a high tolerance for negative and heavy energy.
Holy shiz man I’ve felt this my whole life and you just perfectly explained it.
this is exactly what i’ve been doing, so far i have helped a couple ppl, a friend of mine has suicidal thoughts and i asked for permission to help her and it worked, i’ve also helped a several people with eating disorders and it made me feel really good
My friends and I have a group chat called "Witch Coven" and we all are baby witches there :D since we can't do anything yet we are doing research ^^
That sounds AWESOME! Great getting support of a group of curious ppl who will be helpful in your new journey.
Can I be in it? 🥺
Omg so do I it's just I just recently started my research and they all have been in it for years and they r asking me what witch r u and all this stuff and all I can say is I don't know I'm just trying to figure life out and see where my practice takes me
If this is a group chat on fb I would love to learn as well.
Can i be in it plz?
Eclectic witch seems to fit me best. My first introduction to the craft was a gardnerian covens' book of shadows. Since then I've explored celtic paganism(at length), stregheria, ceremonial magick, appalachian folk magick, hoodoo, herbalism, candle magick, buddhism, hinduism, universal sufism initiation, and gnosticism, amongst other things. Every path is beautiful and valid. I suppose that the label isn't very important. Blessed be, all!
Is there such thing as a 'music witch'? Because I think I am one, I have a soothing, magical feeling listening to music and I just simply can't function without listening to it. Im starting to find my identity as a Witch
Hmm I would say that yes, there totally are music witches out there! I think more often they tend to be eclectic witches who focus strongly in their musical abilities and integrate it into their practices. But having said that if music is your main way of practicing then perhaps yes you are a music witch!
@@TheGreenWitch I'm both a Music & Storm Witch
Right now ,I'm working with the Atmosphere,changes in the weather & elements etc
My main matron Goddess is Devana..but I'll work with the other
Goddesses who are associated with her
My path will be Russian Wicca
That's me right there, a music witch. As a singer, my magic is performed through my voice most of the time. I study a lot of different approaches to magic (also music theory and history) so i can build my own spells through music
R Toguidver yo sounds fun, if I go with her and chill when I die then I guess I’ll see you there.
Im a kitchen witch and a solitary witch.
I wanna start witchcraft but I don’t know where to look at for indications and informations.
Same :(
me too
I found a really interesting book, u can find it online for free and download the pdf. It’s called BucklandsCompleteBookOfWitchcraft
Pagans and witches amino, there you can find a whole community of people who will be glad to respond to any doubts or questions you may have (:
MarieLoup
Start by choosing the element you feel most connected and comfortable with. I’m a Water and Earth witch. Research all about the symbols of witchcraft and keep it in a Book Of Shadows. (A Book/Notebook to fill with religious knowledge) When you’re ready start to gather herbs and spices for your craft. You can study things like palm reading and auras/energies! Tarot cards and oracle card are very interesting and dybuuk boxes aren’t to be messed with as a starter. Along with the Ouiji Board.
I admire your aesthetic. Very knowledgeable video. My grandmother was Wiccan , when she passed to the other side I felt so lost. I’d like to reconnect with her spirituality and honor her through the craft. I am just starting out and know very little about anything , but this helped a lot . Thank you for your guidance on my first steps into this realm.
First time watcher. Your videos are awesome! Love how you explain things. Keep making them! Green, Solitary, Wiccan, Eclectic Witch. That's the best way to describe me! Blessed Be!
When I first found my "label" it was out of the blue for me. I never decided to BE a witch but I read over and over again descriptions of a Green Witch were a list of things I was already doing, and beliefs that I was already practicing. I had no idea that my earth-worshiping, soil-digging, plant-loving, thunderstorm-celebrating, tree-talking soul had a title lol but finding out really turned out to be the missing piece in my life
Nobody:
Her hands in the video: 👉🏼👆🏼👇🏼✋🏼👋🏼👐🏼👐🏼🤲🏼👏🏼👈🏼👉🏼
I was looking for this 😂😂
Caydence’s life same
once i accidentally whacked someone in the face when i was talking really passionately
@@remuslupin1713 same. I am Italian and this is a huge problem for me ahahah
People who use hand movements a lot tend to be more *expressive
I also aggressively use my hands while talking 🤷🏻♀️ and am also a Italian lol
I'm definitely an eclectic witch. Thank you, this was very informative on some types of witchcraft that aren't clearly understood like a hedge witch vs a green witch. Great video. 💛❤️💜🧙🏻♀️
Solitary ecclectic witch here! I wasn't sure you were going to mention ecclectic types but was so happy to hear you talk about this very common way of practice at the end ^^' as always, I had a feeling of relief and belonging when you spoke of ecclectic witches, as opposed to the anxiety of not belonging in any of the previous categories!
her hair is the most magical part of this video- its so perfect-
Jubilee did a series with “I’m a Witch. Ask Me Anything”. It really was fascinating to hear a lot of stereotypes busted. I was raised Christian and always was taught that anything witchcraft related was evil and the devil’s work. As I’ve grown up, I distanced myself from religion and felt more connected to energy and replaced prayers with sending positive or good energy to someone in need. I feel very connected to the earth and wanting to protect it. It’s nice to hear about different practices and lifestyles that speak to those things :). I still feel that there is a higher power than myself but I just refer to it as the universe now.
Heyyy!Thanks for the video.It’s much appreciated.Me and my discord students have been learning a lot from your channel and I just want to thank you for diving into Witchcraft as a whole and giving my students whole new perspectives
Just found your channel & I’m so happy I did! At this point, if I have to label myself, I’d say I’m a solitary eclectic green witch although I do resonate with other things & constantly growing & evolving…but those types basically encompass most of who I am & how I practice, tho I’m still early on in being a witch. It’s nice to find a place to feel at home at here on YT when so much of what is on here is “drama” & creates negative energy & spaces. This is refreshing, I think I’ll stay! 😊🖤
I almost drowned in the ocean as a child and ever since then I am very connected to the sea. My family thinks I’m crazy that I can swim in cold Bay Area waters. 🤣
Not a witch but same, I was dragged into the ocean by a huge wave when I was 5, I remember being really scared and thinking "I have to open my eyes" when I did the ocean was so beautiful that I lost my fear. Since then I really like swimming and being around water.
This happened to my sister too! Almost drowned in a lake as a toddler & i could swear she has an ancient mermaid soul deep down quietly. We're in our early 30s now😊♡
Hey, i am a moon witch. I am still kinda new but I found my passion in Crystal's, candle magic and moon spells. I work with the phases of the moon and ask my tarot cards for guidance.
Hiii this is what im interest in and I’ve always felt connected to the moon and was wondering how you started if you don’t mind :)
@@maritzamagallanes3558 hi, the first thing you should do is research. What do the moon cycles mean, what do you feel when a certain moon phase is currently? There so many places you can search for. The web, books. Different apps. I have an app which tells me when the next moon cycle is at it peak so I never miss one out. I also use the moonology cards and have a book from the same author.
If you wanna know more you can text me :)
DarkAngelAroyo do you have a channel? I’d love to learn more 🌙 x
Are there such things as sun witches or am I just being a dumbass???..
@@ahhhitgavebirth8125 as a witch you don't have to follow stereotypes. There are lots of witches who feel connected to something which is not the typical stereotype. Do what makes you feel good and happy. Search for sun related signs. Explore what you feel when you do certain things. Do you feel connected to a deity? (There are many sun gods and goddesses) maybe one of them is calling to you. :)
Hi! Iv been a solitary Green/Kitchen witch for over 20 years. Just found your channel and really enjoying your vids. Thanks x
I loved learning about the different types of witches in this video, and I appreciate how it emphasizes the diversity within the Wiccan community. It's so important that we celebrate and honor the unique practices and beliefs of each witch. Thank you for sharing! #Wicca #WitchTypes #SpiritualJourney
im so glad my mom allows me to be a witch and gives me jars and candles and herbs
Same here:D
My mom is a modern witch, and I didn't even notice, until I asked my mom when we were in a witchcraft shop. Now I realize where I get it from, me and my mom come from a long line of witches. I'm so happy!
Anyone: What kind of witch are you?
Me: Yes.
All kidding aside, I feel I'm a Solitary, Eclectic, Green, Kitchen, Sea Witch. I also believe that all the Gods and Goddesses of every culture exist. They do not demand our attention, but if we choose to follow them and commit to our path, then they will take an interest in us by providing us with life lessons and blessings.
I believe in the gods thing too and I am happy to found someone else like this. My Wicca friends and other witchs do not like that I believe in every gods and goddesses, and believe they don't really care if any of us follow them or not.
@@milagroberberena-rand9012 I was afraid I was the only one that believed that too. I never hear anyone talk about it. So happy we're not alone in our beliefs. I was beginning to think I was foolish for it, but it seems we're not alone. Love to my witchy brothers and sisters on this beautiful journey called life.
@@pagansunite4005 It isn't foolish, our beliefs and ideas makes us the witches we are. Through it is hard asking my friends for help on things because of it.
I feel mostly the same too! I'm just starting out and I found this wonderful channel.
That is very similar to the belief I’m trying to navigate. I want to be a sea witch, but I also want to delve in crystals and herbs, and I also want to connect to a deity. Maybe I can do all?
Thank you for your time and help. This means sooo much
I am an eclectic witch. I work a lot with kitchen Magick since I'm a training chef, sigils, birth charts, herbs and plants, crystals (they literally saved my life), colour Magick and protection Magick.
Also, I started from your and Olivia's channels when I first got into witchcraft and I'm so thankful for the both of you 💙🧡💙
I have no idea how I stumbled across this video, It’s like a whole new world. I’m more of a realistic science based person so I don’t really understand a lot of this but this is so fascinating. More power to you guys:)
I used to be very scientific (I still am) but I have began my path of witchcraft and I am now one of those atheist witches which is a weird combo but I love it lol
im in the same boat lol. this all is really interesting to learn about
Witchcraft is about science. My love for science has brought me here, herbal medicine is very science-based if you ask me. It's not as if I replace it for actual medicine, but it does work as a remedy for other matters.
@@dinolover6124 I'm comforted that I can decide about trying to connect with the divine in some way or completely not
Is there a such thing as a Dream Witch, I feel more connected with my dreams?
シ xoxo mykie considering the fact that prophetic dreams are a thing I'd say dream witches would be too!
So am I, I’m precognitive (psychic) and have never forseen while I’m awake. I wasn’t paying attention at first and then it was like it started smacking me in the face. I can’t put my finger on it, but I can just “tell” when I’m having a precognitive dream (one showing me the future). They’re just off somehow. Every single one has come to fruition. I think I’m just a precognitive hedge witch, idk. I’m drawn to dark energy as well
I literally have the same question as well. Although not for the same reasons. I rarely dream (or remember them) but when other ppl try to tell me their dreams and what it means its so fascinating. I also have an urge to help ppl sleep despite tht I barely even sleep myself lol.
I think most witches on some level have them. At least one or two. Ive had prophetic dreams all of my life. Never heard it called dream witch before, but I like it. " Lucid dreams, Big dreams, prophetic, dream walking, waking dreams, astral dreams" are what I've always heard, oh, and I'm just crazy lol. But seriously for a lot of us , dreams are how the door gets opened. They can be the thing that gets us started down our Witchie path.
@@SUKI23902 Do you interpret their dreams? Not all things are the same to everyone. A black cat to me is a wonderful friend. To someone else it can mean a bad omen, or something to that nature. I'm just curious. It sounds to me like you should. I do, and its amazing. If not , you should give it a try!
I recently started out on my Wicca journey and found this channel quite helpful. Thank you! ✨🧙♀
hey i know you get a lot of comments but i deeply appreciate this video it it’s has my been my first day knowing i want to be a witch working on myself and just learning on all the paths and i’ve kinda decided to take all them, after taking some self work spells and research . I understand you get a lot of subscribers but i really appreciate this thank you
I love the way you address how our paths evolve over time and our labeling of ourselves as different kinds of witches can change over time. I practice and teach an eclectic tradition of Wicca that focuses on the individual learning thier own path, To serve more as a guide to my students spiritual growth as opposed to the specific tradition I was taught. Great video and as usual your editing game is strong, very well produced, I hope I can get my videos on this level of production one day.
Thank you so much! I think thats the best way to help people learn and I think it's wonderful that you teach that way. I really appreciate all your support and I believe in your abilities it just takes practice and figuring out what you like to do in regards to your editing style.
How do u look for witch classes? Srry if tht sounded dumb but like u said you teached wicca
@@SUKI23902 never worry about sounding dumb when asking a question. The only dumb question is the one that wasn't asked.
You could click on his profile, perhaps he's got his own channel. And otherwise you should find loads of them in merely one Google search. Good luck!
Your backdrop / setup is absolutely stunning!
once the weather clears up in gonna go down to my creek and collect supplies. im a mix of a kitchen witch and a green witch but im just a lil baby so im still figuring things out. this helped a lot, and the validation of having a mixed/uncertain path eased me very much. loved this video, subscribed :]
I just found your channel recently and I LOVE your personality and style!! Also I LOVE “the clap” you do 🤣 so cute!
Thanks for being so kind and informative
Okay this is going to sound so edgy lmao, but I’m like really drawn to cemeteries, when I’m in one I feel the best, I feel at peace, I’m not a hedge witch since I don’t cross over but I could always give it a shot.
Also I feel so weird when I tell someone I might try to go into witchcraft because well I’m male
Sama goes for me🤣🤣
Yo my man, don't even trip, witches can be both male and female - the word has historically been used to refer to both genders iirc!
The word witch applies to both male and female so don’t worry! Also if you feel drawn to cemeteries you can start looking into ancestral magic and study spirituality (spirits, afterlife, certain types of divination and also ancestry magick)
Witch is a gender neutral term.
Cemetaries.. maybe a sign to pursue the path of the Necromancer?
One of my psychics is one, he communicates with spirits and offer people blessings and healing arts via the Dead (nothing evil, just has a darker vibe).
I'm a solitary eclectic hedge witch who focuses a lot on crystals and tarot cards. I carry them every where . . .I think they've become an extension of my body. 🤭 Love your channel.
I have a lot of Crystal's too. I'm just starting out. I've been watching mark bajerski on youtube & he's helped me out a lot. Any advice you can give me on my Crystal's. I sage them...use sun & moon...thunderstorms... sea salt...rice... & self glow them...but there are times I can't feel them... any advice would help.
I love my crystals, too. They are so active and expressive sometimes!!
@@heididospapas8860 Hold them, talk to them and feel them. They tell you when they need something (bury me under this plant for a few nights) or smoke, or water, moonlight, sunlight, etc. Some want to hang out with places of activity in the house that adjusts the vibration. Honestly I would just... Talk to them. You will get impressions back.
I'm the same 3 types, crystals and tarot. I've dabbled in palm reading as well. I work at a crystal shop which makes life all the better! I've been able to see beyond the veil since age 2 and it only got more clear after I was 12 and had a near death experience from drowning. So decided from middle school to look into figuring out how to handle what had become of me. May you all have an amazing journey in this lifetime.
Tell me more. I’m intrigued.
Hey Annie !!! I’m so glad I found your channel. I’m an Eclectic Witch. When I was a little girl, I could do a lot of cool stuff, but I scared my family and was told to stop. Of course, I never did, but went into the closet. Now, as a Crone, and with my immediate and most other family having gone on, I’m finding myself again and loving what I’m learning about Magick, and about myself. I’ve actually learned a lot from you my siSTAR, and I thank you for being an inspiration for me. Blessings and peace to you !!! 🌹🔆💕🧚🏽♀️🪴💫
I am a (budding - no pun intended) Green Witch. I’m so glad I found your channel and your Patreon. Im so excited to learn upon the path!
Me seeing youre back ground ......me looking at MY room: yeahh Im prob a green witch😂
Oh my gods, a christian add came on while watching this
that's no accident - happens all the time when my friend who does educational videos of ancient Scandinavian culture - he's an archaeologist and really smart - when ever he does something about women, witches or types of magic - you can count on the 'christian ads' for sure
I'm a Christian watching this 🤷
you can be a Christian witch believe it or not haha. My old boss made cloaks and other period-accurate clothing for one of the Renaissance Fairs, and she had a whole friend group of Christian witches who worked there with her. They're super humble and cool 💕
@@Mystical444 Saaaaame dude. XD
Same, “find the name of your Guardian angel” like, um thanks but I’m not ready for a deity-
This was such a wonderful description of these nine types of witches! You made the differences very clear, as well as always leaving things open for interpretation since witchcraft is such a personal thing. I am a fledgling baby witch, so I have only just begun to explore, but thus far the one I resonate with most is solitary eclectic witch. I am very interested in divination, I see and sense auras in certain people, I love to cook and experiment with food and edible plants/herbs, and I want to build and handcraft ALL OF THE THINGS with intention and weave my spells into them. I'm excited to see where my path takes me and whether I feel drawn to a different label in the future, but for now I will research and explore the facets that resonate with me the most.
I can’t see exactly say I see aura, but I do sense it and I apply colors to how I feel about those colors to the aura. I started long before I learned about magick(which was recently, I am a baby witch.) and felt aura since as long as I can remember. I ranted positively about it for an entire day before running out of stuff to talk about once.
you have such a soothing voice!! thank you for the super informative video :)
Blessings of the day to you fellow witch 🌜🌚🌛
I'm a solitary witch who practices all kinds of different magic. Iv been a witch since childhood because my mother was a witch but we didn't practice together she just opened the door really. I enjoyed watching your opinions. You have unique energy that is friendly as many green witches do tend to have that calm likeable exterior. I will subscribed to show support.
I'm a Witch I like to use my mind for the magic, I like my freedom to do what I want, and help others with wishes, prayers I thought I was a Hedge Witch but looks like I'm not that. I read Fairy Cards Angel cards, Runestones, The Tarot cards, I feel one with all life. Made my yard into a mini wild countryside, I have a lot of trees, have some wildlife that visits at night. I have lot's birds who visit me each day to get a small feed from me each day little children passing my house love watching the birds when feeding them. My house is full of Crystals when they shine I know all is right with my World. I feel one with Mother Earth. If had my way, I would live in the country and near the sea. I have felt the heartbeat of the Earth if one gets up early and dew is still on the Earth and one stands without shoes for a while till feel the energy go into feet and you start feeling the pulse or heartbeat, I use to do it when I was young. I love to make wishes and write them down to help my family and friends, I know a few lovely spells. I so magic my way and seems to work for me. Each day send, Blessings, Healing, Protection, and love to all life. What the World needs now is Healing and lots of love. I have heard the music of the Earth when I was waking up it was so beautiful then it started breaking up it was the sound of life only heard this once. I'm a Witch who likes to work alone and feel one with all life the Earth and the Heaven and send out the energy of Love to the people who need it. I hope you didn't mind me sharing this I'm 79 now I had my ups and downs life but it has been an adventure, I live a quieter life now.
that’s lovely!💞
This is amazing ❤
Beautiful
How do you know what witch you are?? Cause I think I am either a cosmic witch or a sea witch. I have always loved swimming since I was little and I have been interested in astrology lately
O wow ❤❤
Omg I love your music!! Lovvvve it!
At the moment I’m a solitary eclectic, but I’m also very new. Love the channel !
I am just now beginning to understand my witchcraft. When I was 14, I began my "year and a day" of studying, and by 15 I was calling myself a "witch", but I still had very little understanding of what that really meant. I called myself "eclectic" and remained solitary in part because I grew up in a small, conservative community and in part because I felt my path was not similar to other witches who I read about. I had problems following the traditional path that I studied because there was a lot of involvement of the deities (a classification of beings I cannot make myself believe in - the same reason I had left Christianity several years before that). I practiced spell magic and studied bits here and there but over time lost interest in trying to study more because of the religious aspect and my disbelief. I stopped thinking of myself as a witch and just dropped all pretense of religious belief in anything. I thought that by dropping the label, I was being more true to myself.
But I never lost some of the beliefs...and in fact, over the years, I picked up a few more that I hadn't heard of yet when I was young (even though I had some experience practicing them without knowing others did so or that they even WERE a practice, such as reiki).
25 years later I am finally coming to realise that my life experience has ALWAYS been that of a witch - just...an athiest one. I believe spells work, I believe crystals can store energy or disperse it. I believe everything in nature has a tie to everything else in nature. I believe that balance is essential for survival of life - not individual life, but life in general. I believe in the power of prayer - not because some entity will answer it, but because it is simply a way to focus energy. I believe in "spirits" in so much as they are either created by energy remnants left behind or by energy finding it's way to this world from another. I believe that psychics CAN find things that "normal" people cannot because of some inherent or trained ability to access information the rest of humanity is blind to. I believe meditation is a way of seeking balance. I believe that we can harness and manipulate energy in ways science cannot yet explain. I believe both animate and inanimate objects can influence or lives, whether to heal or harm, and should be handled with curiosity and reverence because of that.
And, importantly, I believe that all of the religions get SOME of it right, and that everyone should be free to believe whatever they like as long as they are using that belief to better themselves, others, or the world around them.
I suppose, by your definition and mine combined, I would be a "Solitary, eclectic, athiest witch". Seems like a little much to call oneself. Perhaps soon I will find a shorter title that suits me better, but, for now, I guess that's who I am.
Hey, this reply might be a bit late but I just stumbled over your comment and got blown away because I feel the same way you do. Though I wohldn’t label myself as an atheist because in my language that means you believe in absolutely nothing, not even nature. Maybe we’ll find something some day that will be able to describe us and our beliefs and I’m sure there’s more likeminded witches out there.
@@n.n.-thatsit.1947 There are others. There are Facebook groups for Athiest Witches, and surely similar groups on other platforms.
"Athiest" to me means a disbelief in god-figures only. Perhaps it is not the right word to use, though. It would be nice to find better terms.
I believe it's called agnostic. Atheist is someone who doesn't believe in anything spiritual or religious.
@@palacinkasmarmeladou Agnostic means someone who isn't sure if deities exist but thinks it's possible, yet doesn't worship anything.
Athiest means a person who does not believe in deities. It can also mean one who doesn't believe in any religious aspects.
To me, Athiest is the correct term. I have zero belief in gods or godesses, but find spirituality in things that science currently has no explanation for. I have faith only in that some day, all of the things I believe will be proven existent by science.
A beautiful journey 🤟🏼❤️
I'm an Eclectic witch. Mostly focusing on water, rain, storm, ocean, crystals, art, divination and including Greek Gods mostly Poseidon, Gaia and Apollo.
i’m a super super baby witch but i’ve felt so attracted to apollo lately and idk i would like to worship him, any advice?
I know this is years later but your videos came up while I attempt to learn more about witch craft. Lots of members of my family are witches but I've never learned from them but I have picked up interests along the way.
Watching your videos brings a lot of clarity and guidance and I appreciate that
With that said, I think so far crystals, zodiac/charting, tarot cards, pendulums, herbs, oils and decorating my home with intent are where my interests have peaked and have slowly embedded into my life over the years.
I feel that I may be a kitchen witch that also dabbles in divination
I'm just beginning to get into witchcraft (although I was drawn to magic my whole life) and so far it seems that the best craft for me, that suits my view of magic, would be the eclectic witch, focused on nature. Thank you for clearing the types up, it really helped :)
Thank you for specifying that one does not have to be Wiccan to be a witch. I would say I am drawn to the characteristics of a kitchen witch and a green witch. I've always grown plants and have a true interest in the healing properties of medicinal herbs.
I'm just starting out w this and w even acknowledging that my "new age practices " might b that of a good witch. I'm a combination of a Seawitch and an Eclectic witch. I'm a Pisces who lives by the sea. I have to have water around me constantly. I also love my shells, stones and crystals. I love full moon rituals and the power of the sun. Thank you for your channel. I love it
rhonda jones I am also a Pisces and I also live by an ocean. Funny how sometimes our signs are placed near our elements as if on purpose. We always end up where we’re supposed to be I suppose.
I don’t like to particularly label myself with the different titles. I prefer to usually keep it my own secret I’ve been practicing witchcraft since I was 13. Very few people have asked me if I consider myself one and I very reluctantly reply. Perhaps it just the old school tradition intertwined with my beliefs. Thought it was cool we both lived in similar places so I thought I’d comment! ☺️
Meee tooo
I'm a pisces too. I'm also an Eclectic Sea Witch. I don't live near the ocean but when I was younger we would travel a lot and would go to different island and beaches every month
I'm trying to get into being a witch and maybe even convert to Wicca, and what you said at the beginning about you don't pick one cuz it sounds cool, you learn what you're connected to has helped me. I was trying to research certain types only, not even knowing if that's what I am meant to be. Thank you for this!
Your voice is so soothing! And you explain things so well ❤️
Omg Ive always been so drawn to many of these topics, I’ve had a deep calling to start my own garden and always been intrigued with astrogoly etc.. I know I was meant to come across your channel. Divine timing, so excited for what’s to come!!
i feel you don’t have to label yourself as a witch. as you grow and change, you may learn that you like several way, and labeling yourself is just unnecessary. if i labeled myself accurately i’d have six different titles at least haha
That's the beauty of following an eclectic path because really you don't have to label yourself! I am a strong believer in working in whatever way suits you best and I understand that labels can get in the way of that for some people, I mean it took me years to feel comfortable labeling myself and I only really did because it feels right to me. But everybody's paths are individual and unique and that's what makes them so beautiful so I agree with you in a sense because labels aren't necessary for many witches especially those who find themselves following an eclectic path but I do also believe that people can find a home in them as well. It's all up to the practitioner themselves and that's what so wonderful about practicing witchcraft!
its purely aesthetic bullshit
@@anabiell9824 stfu
I'm exactly the same way. There are several studies I've learned & practice over the years. So, I'd have a 1/2 dozen names. Lol
@@anabiell9824 If you even had half a brain you'd know a witch means someone who practices witchcraft, it has been around longer than Christianity, Islam and others. But you know...let's just say it's aesthetic since you're so stupid
I’m still new and think I am drawn to kitchen/ hearth witchcraft the most. I love your channel and the witch of wanderlust and the witch’s cookery thanks to the smartphone I’m finally able to research in to these things that I have felt drawn to most of my life 😘 and your beautiful videos give me the perfect place to start x
I really love your channel, I’m def a solitary witch and it’s such a personal practice and j incorporate many tendencies of kitchen witch, green and galactic . Thankyou for sharing and allowing space for other witches - it can be a lonely space to exist . ❤️
This video was in my recommended. Just wanted to say I love your aesthetic! Chaos witch here!
This is so very informative for my journey! Have begun embracing the path for about a two years now. I now feel like I am not wandering and am okay with what I’m doing. 😌 I can confidently embrace knowing I am an Eclectic Solitary Green Witch. 💚 Thank you! New sub!
Thank you so much! I am so happy that you have found a path that fits you, I know from experience how truly wonderful and affirming finding your path can be!
When you were wrapping up the segment on cosmic witches, I said out loud and to myself “okay so cosmic witch" and I got immediate chills right afterwards. Love when things like that happen
I just love your videos (and the vintage music in the background) thanks for the clarity and for sharing your knowledge and gift, ps fancy a coffee, pps or a date lol
I was wondering where i fit in, where I figure out what type of witch I was. All of a sudden this Solitary Green Witch comes onto my recommended. I watch the whole video and realize I identify as a solitary green witch as well. Thank you so much for this video, it is so helpful for baby witches or those of us still learning. I can not wait to watch literally all of your videos now. For some reason I feel like I am finally home and someone finally understands me
Love youe videos. You always do a great job breaking down the difference between wicca and being a witch. I liken your insight to Harmony nice's methods.
Thank you so much, I really appreciate that!
I really loved all the descriptions, very nicely broken down.
immediately felt the cosmic and hedge witch title and i’m so happy i found this
My mom is a Sea Witch
The amount of sea shells and ocean fossils all over the house and on the small windowsill altar is amazing
I think I'm a Green Witch
I think I am an eclectic witch. I really love astronomy and crystals. I also like tarot cards. I am new to this and I would love to learn more. I love your videos, keep it up! Blessings! 🌱🔥🌊💨
Im super new and just learing if this is right for me but I do like what I am hearing. It feels very intuitive. Thanks for the breakdown of a few witch types.
Is there a “Light Witch?” I’ve always worked with light in my imagination and have thought of it like Reiki.
I’m really feeling draw to this thread/conversation and don’t think it’s random that I’ve found myself here. Does anyone resonate with this?
✨💙✨
I think there are light Wiccan/Witches
Yes, witches sometimes identify with their favorite tools or methods, like crystal witch, fire witch, or in your case, light witch.
Wonderful, thank you ✨💙✨
Light and shadow are part of the elements. Maybe you're an elemental witch that focuses on light?
elemental
I’m late to this video, but I’ve become really interested in witchcraft, and I’m really wondering how do I start?
I've just started too.
There's Facebook groups, I watch harmony nice, and the hearthwitch on TH-cam.
There's free books all over the internet. There's so much information at our fingertips, all you have to do is start researching like on Google, you'll be overwhelmed with what you find!!
yea me too, but I've found no help with google. it's been a few moths since this comment was posted and I was wondering (if you succeeded) if you could give me some pointers
@@BumbleBarry sadly I quit but tiktok does help a lot and you should def try a lot of research
@@tia5772 thank you for replying to this, and your for sure right. I went to TikTok and it helped a lot
I’m only started sort of a few months ago and I found the witch of wonderlust really helpful
Thank you!! I’m very much an eclectic witch. I’ve always had a connection with spirits/the universe so I often seek out their wisdom on specific questions and have them communicate via Tarot.
I do spell work often with Candles and I am in my kitchen far too much and believe good meals can heal just about anything! You’re so right about every slice and stir is done so with intention! Everything in my craft has been chosen based on what spirit has communicated or what just feels right.
Thank you for helping me realize that I’m doing just fine
I'm see myself as a future draconic witch but right now I'm a newbie into the magical world so I'm not ready yet
This was really helpful! My husband and I recently started looking into witchcraft and i only recently learned there are different "types" outside or part of the Wiccan traditions. Thanks for the video. I look forward to us figuring out what types we are.
You look up draconic witch btw which is where a practioner works directly with dragons within they're practice and I'm one of the very few who plans on working with dragons and dragons and dragon witches are rare
My Libra self never could make a decision so I am most certainly an Eclectic Witch😂
I’m a green witch and faery witch!
I've started my practice a year ago and have been identifying as green witch, but thanks to the vid i think I'm a mix between kitchen witch, solitary, and green witch, more focused on the kitchen. Thanks for the clarity!
i am a solitary dianic kitchen witch/green witch i guess if i wanted to label myself. i am getting in touch with the way of my ancestors, i am so excited to learn more ab witchcraft in general. just subscribed.
I'm definitely an eclectic witch. My practice is constantly evolving and molding to my everyday life.
