same! i started taking notes on my computer yesterday and it has been so exciting to learn, though it is still very confusing since I just started researching
I’ve kept mine on my notes on my iPad, book of shadows sounded very serious and I don’t do a lot of witchcraft all that often, so I call it my journal of vibes.
I used to make “potions” by mixing leaves and dirt and sticks when I was little and I used to call myself a witch when I was little so I really want to get into witchcraft :)
Same . I would even sprinkle glitter on dead animals thinking it helped them rise from the dead . Making crystal necklaces . Flower and vine crowns . Always in the creeks. Reading books to the trees . Now I’m here ! ❤️
I had a tea candle react badly, and I assumed it was the salt I added, but now I think it must have been some defect in the tin it was in. I can't be sure. It was so strange.
@@SamanthaPajor salt and metals don't react well together, salt causes metal to rust and in my country if one were to leave their car in a garage after driving in the winter they're better off washing the bottom of the car with water because the salt used to melt ice will destroy the metal faster than the water would. So if you had a metal tin it may have been that? Salt should normally only create a nice orange color when it evaporates after melting so if the candle was in a metal tin the melting of salt and contact with metal could maybe cause something, or the candle was defective.
I'm a baby witch myself, and my mom is a witch and she made a book of shadows and right now I'm having fun studying from it!she has been helping me on my journey. Most of the time I draw in my own book of shadows when I'm inspired that relates to this. Good luck to all those beginner witches and your not alone. Before I go make sure you do some research!!!💗🤗💓💖
I am a beginner witch because I have always made potions whitout even knowing that it was witchcraft. I used to get a four leafed kleever, and waited until it dryed out, then I made it into a kind of powder. And mixed it with water and said some stuff (i guess a spell??) And I would give it to my brother for good luck. And yesterday I discovered witches! And I feel that this is the thing I am created to do.
I have always loved the thought of witchcraft particularly spells I used to pretend to do spells and I have also just started witchcraft and I just closed my first circle!
That’s so cool! I used to have out of body experiences without knowing what witchcraft was and then I found out about spirituality! Now I’m an elemental hedge spiritualist!
Some great advice and advice I have often shared myself. I'd been on my path almost two years before I actually cast a spell. I'd been a witch a long time before I realised I was actually a green witch. Up to that point just called myself a witch. Nothing more. I didn't want tonlanle myself as anything in particular. I don't have a book of Shadows. I have notebooks. And I have them in physical notebooks. And on my phone and tablet. And you NEVER stop learning. Not matter how long you have walked the path 😊 I also say to people is this. It's not a race. You do not have to get from A to B in the quicker time ever. Nor is it a competition. This is your path and yours only. Youbare nither better or not as good as another witch. You shouldn't walk in the footprints of another either. Create your own footprints.
Pagan Hare - The Green Witch I am 6 months I’d say into my Wiccan journey and I have yet to cast a spell. I truly don’t feel I am ready yet! I do keep spells written down so when I am ready I can cast them. So I agree that it just takes time! ☺️
I'm sorry I just laughed at "create your own footprints" because I live in Finland so either I walk in other people's footsteps or I get snow in my shoes 😂 the sentiment is correct but my brain decided to make me think about it in a literal sense, I am yet to start my journey and I don't know if I will start it. I'd want to, I'm hoping that the practice would give me a sense of purpose and would encourage me to go out there when I have to collect herbs and so on, an addition to my list of things that are helping me in recovering from depression and anxiety, but as of now I barely have the energy to see my therapist once a week...
my literal first thing i did (yesterday, started my witchcraft thing yesterday) was get an old notebook, rip all the used pages out, and start writing random stuff i was watching. i called it "notes about witchcraft" but now that i know what a book of shadows is i renamed it lol.
hello fellow baby witch ! i also did my first witch thing just yesterday, i made my first two sigils and used them so they could aid me in a test i had. i didn't get an excellent grade, i'll admit that, but i still passed the test, the details of the experience truly make me believe the sigils blessed me and i am infinitely grateful for them i hope this past week has been enlightening to you, just like i aspire the next days will be for me ♡
@@Valentina-mv2ux it has been, i've been taking a bit of a break from it because life is busy bt i made some sigils and did some research about it. while nothing has really changed in my life the sigils give meaning to something so at least that's good.
I started today and wrote "Witchy things" on the cover of my journal and started with an about me page 😁 I also put together a little "shadow box". So far I'm very interested in astrology because I already was drawn to that for years and I would like to try a little bit of herbal work but I cant find what I want in my little town and I'm not willing to go to a big city with 2 confirmed cases of covid
Your editing and filming style is enchanting. I don’t think I’ve ever used that word seriously before. But enchanting, yeah, that’s the word. I loved this. I loved everything. Thank you
Ever since I became a witch, I have felt complete. I already know so much about witchcraft, I just love seeing other people perspectives! Good luck to all on their journey! 💜
Back when I was younger I started exploring witchcraft as a religion. I looked at so many different options and in the end I was overwhelmed. Now here I am almost 20 years later and coming back to it in a more organic way. I had to travel the country to find the one place I felt most at home is right here where I was born in the Pacific Northwest. I had to go to college and try out a bunch of different jobs before I found the one that was perfect for me, working as a teacher with special education students. Now that I'm settled into a job and location I noticed myself starting to garden, and work a lot with herbs and spices and building a reference library to go with so much of my homesteading and bushcrafting and bonsai books. I also started picking up oracle cards and eventually found a deck of tarot cards that I felt were just screaming my name. Recently I took a step back and thought that much of what I'm already doing and into goes right back to the practice of being a green witch. Now I'm focusing on that aspect and working on building my craft and working it in with all the other things I already naturally do to start weaving things together in a natural way. This has led me to your videos. Thank you.
I've been studying witchcraft for over a year and I'm so glad I've found so many helpful channels to help hone in my craft. This lifestyle is so beautiful and incredible and I'm glad we can share such a loving community!
Thank you! I've had to undo distorted informatin about witch craft/magic from the religion I was exposed to as a child, you introduce the craft with sincereity, love, positivity.. Thank you!
This was such a well said video. Thank you for the comment on witchcraft not being like high school! There’s no rush to get it done in 4 years. I think people tend to rush through life but we have so much time. Thank you for this!
I've always felt this connection with the moon its hard to explain but it feels like something is calling me but I don't know what I have weird abilities when I dream but every time I share my experiences people tell me, "you're making that up" and "no one can do that" and it's just hard to talk about this stuff especially since I was raised in a Christian household and my parents told me witchcraft is evil but it's not there's so much beauty in it and I wish more people understood
As some of the others here spoke of the vibe that you give off is amazing. You really touched my soul. I was watching this video and tears were streaming down my face. Your voice is so soothing. Here I am 56 years old , I have perceived myself a witch for all of my life. Although I felt almost embarrassed by it. Like I had to hide my true self because it wasn't the norm. I checked out all kinds of Christian Churches and read everything I could get my hands on about other worldly religions. Because I feel like people will see me as evil if I follow my true path. Even though I am a white witch. There is nothing evil about it . Quite the opposite. I love nature and I love animals. I treat people fairly and I do not judge. I feel that everyone is equal in this world. Everyone has a purpose and everyone is beautiful in their own way. As well as with you my Dear. You are sharing your knowledge and even though I have been through so many years of reading books, reading Tarot Cards, writing in my Book of Shadows, practicing Reiki. You have touched my heart today and caused me to rekindle my love for who I truly was meant to be. I will now go unpack my tarot cards and begin again. Thank You for sharing.
I am completely new to all of this and just started researching today...but I was immediately drawn to your video and felt instantly calm and at home when it started. Thank you for making beginning a little easier. :)
I absolutely HATE visualization. This is why I’ve had such a difficult time actually performing spells, and rituals in general. I always got it wrong. I just can’t find a way to visualize without getting uncomfortable or awkward. I’ve decided to take a break from witchcraft in general for a few months, and I’m just getting back into it now, since it is spring and I actually have motivation to do anything at all. Changed my practice from trying to cast spells, over to manifesting in general ways rather than making it difficult for me. I’m making smaller steps for myself and I feel better than I have before. I’m actually making progress rather than being stuck at the same spot. Even though I’m behind, I’m making a better practice for myself, and I can feel comfortable in my practice. I just want people to know that there are ways to personalize your practice based on your needs. It’s your practice, and you can do it in your way.
Thank you for your videos. I've always felt at peace in the forest, especially by myself. I don't' know how to explain it. It feels cleansing, and peaceful, and the only place I feel completely at ease. I have begun to fill my home with plants, and I get the same feeling when I am tending to them. I've been very overwhelmed looking into green witchcraft and your videos are very helpful.
i’ve always felt kind of drawn to witch craft but i didn’t think i’d have the money or time to get into it. idk why but today it just clicked that it’s something i want to begin doing, as i’ve felt something missing over the past few months. i have a new job now so i think i’m going to slowly start incorporating witchcraft into my life :) super excited to join this community
This was good. Nice to see how she's grown in even just a short time compared to later videos, not that I'm a judge. She makes it look more like a philosophy than a religion, similar to what one could say about Buddhism.
I have been having trouble getting started in this craft. I am always second-guessing myself and my choices. I would love to set up a beautiful hearth and altar but my room is a mess and I feel so burdened by it. I also want to focus on the healing aspect of the craft but I am worried I will read a book or a spell that dips into black magick without knowing the difference. It's a little scary at times. Hopefully, I will learn to be patient and will slowly get a better grasp on my research and actions.
I am a baby witch who has been practicing for three months now and I have started learning more about the green witch path. I love your channel so much!!! Its helped me with so many things! Thank you :)
Witchcraft and being a Wiccan has always intrigued by it. So when my friend recommended your channel I was like “ok cool I’ll try it out” and your aura is beautiful I acc swear you’re vibes are amazing and you seem really nice
I am so so glad I just discovered your channel. The energy you give off is so calming and real, I feel safe and comforted by your videos. The tips you've given are so precious and I know they will be so valuable. Thank you
I recently decided I was interested in witchcraft or druidry for its mindfulness and intention. Your channel has been the best I’ve found so far. Thanks for sharing.
I'm so happy I found your videos! I have recently been looking into different types of witches, and I read about Green Witches and I absolutely fell in love with their practices. This video is extremely helpful for me and my notes, and just the all around vibe I get from you and your videos is absolutely amazing
When I was younger I tried to get into witchcraft but it wasn’t what I thought it was so I stopped,but now that I have evaluated what it actually is a few years later I have decided to go back into it. :)
Hi there! I'm a 13 year old girl :) I'm a beginner witch (Baby witch) and a lot of people say I'm too young to be in the craft, And that witches are evil and or dont exist. I do well with charms, herbs, crystals and potions and sometimes spell casting I think... I really like how open and nice you are, I hope I'm welcome here as a witch despite my age. :) I also do not know what type of witch I am, Does anyone have any ideas?
I’m still in the broom closet because no one in my family other than my mom and sister are in to witchcraft :( for now I’m “just researching” to my family but I’m still going to learn and practice which I’m okay with. This channel give off good vibes so I’m gonna stay here for a while tehe
I go to the library every weekend and gather every book i can find on magic, I'm 9 and this is so helpful. I'm a eclectic witch and I absaloutly love my studies and tea. I also go to the river in winter and i love that i'm a witch because that makes me special. I don't care if people call me a freak and my parents support me.
Thank you for your support in my journey. It really means a lot and is such a relief when I listen to your advice. Confusion causes procrastination . We need the motivation you have given. Thank you.
This is my first time listening to your videos on my journey trying to find my path and I love what your creating. The energy that your putting out into the world is positive, helpful, joyful, educational, well organized and exceptional!!!!! I love what your doing and Thank you for sharing .
I like to greet the day. Call the corners, and greet all loving and compassionate spirit guides, good angels, animals, ancestors and descendants in my life to welcome them in my life. It makes me happy. I am 64.
Today was the day I began my witch journey. My friend is helping me and will continue to help me find out who I am. This video helped a lot. Thank you?
I'm so glad i was guided to your realm here. So inspiring. Moving music... your beautiful vibe... yes. Thank you for being here on youtube dear. Sending love from NE Washington (forest fairy living secluded with farm animals). Always comforting to cross paths with a sister healer, especially when they are offering such a gift to the soul. So again, thank you for braving the critics and putting forth your beautiful energy.
I just found you maybe a week ago, but I just love your videos. You have such a lovely spirit and I appreciate all of the care and attention to detail that you put into your work. Thank you for all the energy that you share with us. Sending you love and light ❤
Thank you so much for this video, I have always been drawn to wicca teachings, and divination especially. but knowing where to start can be the most challenging part (more so if you dont have any people who share your ideas) So i found this video helpful. I feel less rushed, like i can take my time now :)
I love your videos and the music you incorporate adds this healing kind of vibe as well. Your videos have such a peace to them that its hard to believe it's a video. I absolutely love your channel. I identify as an earth/green witch andI am always learning and exploring new ideas and crafts. It's nice to see someone like me!
I really like the way you speak and explain. To me it sems natural, honest and good intendet. Thank You for the infos and inspos! greetings from switzerland
This is the type of the craft I like joined the local coven for a year stopped doing anything for a few years stating back on my path simple candle spells work best for me
I was soo into witchcraft when I was a pre-teen.. Made myself a huge Book of Shadows and did a lot of daily rituals. Then someone told me I was being stupid, and I stopped.. I tore out all of the pages of my Book of Shadows, and threw them out. I've always wanted to come back to it, but I still have that nagging voice telling me I'm stupid. :( I really loved every bit of it, and it's something that keeps me awake still, after almost 20 years. I'm trying to get back into it, in small steps, but I have no idea where to start..
I’m just starting off with witchcraft, but at this point, I think I would describe myself as more of an eclectic witch. I’m Heavily interested in crystals, candles, astrology, and to some extent I have done some work with spirits. This channel is been a good, jumping off point, but whatever path I choose to follow, I’ll keep coming back to your channel.
Even though I am not new to Witchcraft and have been practicing for many years I still found this video really helpful! I and glad I found your RU-vid channel, I just know you will help me in the future also. c:
im so happy i found my path and i just bought a journal (my book of shadows) i started to put a prayer about change. like a butterfly. im hoping to find myself and put myself in good energy. 🤎 im drawn to stars, flowers, and herbs.
I made a binder for storing all of the information that all of the beautiful people in the witchcraft community has given me and I am so excited for my first full moon ritual!
These tips are great! I've known about people who practiced witchcraft for a while now but I've only recently wanted to start witchcraft! I hardly know anything about but this video was a big help! Also your really pretty 🥺👉👈💖
This is so helpful. Just getting into witchcraft and leaning towards crystals, portions and spells. Thanks so much for this intro. Very inspiring and helpful
@A. M. Thanks for the bs comment. Yes I will do witchcraft and it does work for me. If you don't like it don't do it but if you have nothing nice to say then just piss off
Thank you for this! There are so many fantastic and practical tips in this video! I really appreciate getting this kind of practical advice from someone experienced. I have a tendency to want to know all of the things immediately, and I will either get overwhelmed or discouraged, but it's so helpful to hear you say that it's okay to go slow, and it's okay to explore, and that there's no rush because the craft is always changing and always growing. Even if I intellectually KNOW these things, it's almost like I feel like I don't have permission to do it the way I need to do it, rather than the way I feel like I have to do it. You have given me that permission, or rather the idea that I can give myself permission. Looking forward to part 2, which is already open and ready to go! :)
You give off such kind vibes. You are absolutely beautiful and remind me of Millie Bobbie Brown. I am just starting my journey and you are so calming and helpful🌿🌙💚💚
