SATIRE SATURDAY: Warlock

Image
  SATIRE SATURDAY: Warlock This is a bit of a tricky one. When people hear the word warlock today, they are likely to think of a male witch. This isn’t quite correct. For most of history, male witches were called witches. It is perfectly fine for a man to be a witch, since the word is not gender specific. It wasn’t until the 1950’s and 60’s the word warlock became a commonly used word for a male witch. This was in no small part due to television shows like “Bewitched” and “Sabrina the Teenage Witch,” who used the word and ingrained it in pop culture. However, it is important to understand that this word has a dark history. Warlock is an old English word that originally meant traitor or oath breaker. Over time this became associated with denying the Christian god and therefore being league with the devil and being a sorcerer. I have also heard this word used by a few witches to describe a person who has betrayed their coven. It just goes to show that the history of the words we use is

THAUMATURGIST THURSDAY: Moldavite

Image
  THAUMATURGIST THURSDAY: Moldavite Moldavite was formed when a meteorite stuck the earth and super-heated the surrounding rock creating the green stones we know today. It is believed to have been from an event that occurred 15 million years ago in Germany. This stone is best for boosting psychic energies and summoning extraterrestrial energies. It is often used for divination because of its connection to the future. Some people use it to contact alien life. My personal observation is that moldavite has an unusual texture, and the energy feels strange. I hope you enjoyed reading. Have a great day!

WITCHY WEDNESDAY: Rosemary

Image
  WITCHY WEDNESDAY: Rosemary Rosemary can be used in spring cleaning and I am sick, so it is getting a repost! Rosemary is a fragrant herb that most people either love or hate. Its scent creates strong reactions in people and there is very little middle ground because of that. It is a very versatile herb regardless of how you feel about it, and today we’re going to explore some of that. Medicinally, Rosemary is considered and antimicrobial, which means it can be used to combat microscopic organisms. Some people say that it can be used as an antibiotic, but I’ve always had better luck using it to combat fungus. It is also said to have antidepressant properties and is known to help soothe the stomach. Some people even use it as a pain killer. Medicinally, rosemary is a great herb to have around. Rosemary has numerous magical uses including protection, mental strengths (especially memory), purification, healing, love, lust, and is thought to help a person sleep. One of the easiest

WITCHTIP TUESDAY: Magic While You’re Ill

  WITCHTIP TUESDAY: Magic While You’re Ill You should never try to do any form of magic while you’re ill. If you already have a cold, flu, of some other form of sickness, your energy is already drained, and you should not drain it further by using magic. Trust me, the spell you want to do can wait until you’re well. Rest up until you feel better. Have a great week! Blessed be! #theaviditywitch #witchtiptuesday #witchtip #witch #witches #pagan #magic #nomagicwhilesick

SATIRE SATURDAY: Nudity

Image
  SATIRE SATURDAY: Nudity Many witches feel comfortable with their bodies and prefer to do their spell work skyclad or nude. Thankfully, you are not required to do your spell work or rituals in the nude. This is good because not all witches feel comfortable practicing in the nude, and clothing is helpful if you want to do an outdoor ritual and have neighbors. Have a great weekend!
