My channel is dedicated to sharing my personal experience as I explore witchcraft that arises from my connection with nature. Green witchcraft, herbalism, folk magic and natural magic.
Turning 70 this year, rediscovering myself daily, still looking for Magick. 😃
I think that's the best part about getting older is how you are able to rediscover yourself. You know you don't know much, so you're open 🌸❤️🌸
Turning 72 this year and am so grateful for that. I have friends who have passed that would have LOVED turning 72. At about 50, I decided I wanted to be a role model for how to age. Not by climbing Mt. Everest or having to-die-for abs, but being real. A few years ago, I went from teaching yoga classes on a mat, to chair yoga because, frankly, im not as graceful as i used to be. But i have the best time with yogis in their 70s, 80s and even in their 90s! And my witchcraft magic is all over my house and everyday. Rather than a practice, its the way i live. Thank you for this video and many blessings!
Thank you for sharing your story, Claire. I feel the same as you did at 50. I'm ready to explore a sense of self that is relaxed in my wisdom while continuing to learn.
Stories like yours let me know that I am feeling the path!
LOVE this comment.
I'm also 72 and I love your post too! I think we come to a crossroad when we hit our 50's that we start feeling the need for taking stock in ourselves. We have done for everyone else, it's time for me!
🙋♀️ Authentic farm witch here, into the later part of 50+. I'm dirty & stinky 90% of my life. The days are long and often little time is left for anything. But everyday I'm in constant contact with Mother Nature. Tuned in tightly to weather, seasons, and the wheel. 🌏
We switched to perennials because row crops were tooooo much for us.
Long, rewarding days.
I'm sure you've got more farm clothes than nice ones!? If you are anything like me, you can't be trusted to walk anywhere on your place without stopping and wrecking what you are wearing, lol
Finally retired last year at 75 and feel like I was just born into the world! I’ve never had the blessing of full days and seasons in my garden. I’ve embraced natural witchcraft and every day brings the joy of discovery. THANK YOU for your comments about the hype of tic-toc. I was beginning to feel that magick required diaphanous gowns and a thick layer of Sephora. I’m more about yoga pants and dirt. My garden is magic. The trees protect me, the birds, squirrels, deer and foxes are my friends. My new rose garden is bliss. I’m only 10 months old but my roots are ancient. So much to learn!!! Blessed be!!
"Diaphonous gowns and a thick layer of Sephora"
This is my favorite comment!😂😂😂
Blessed be!
Soooooo funny❗️ …”the diaphanous gowns & thick layer of Sephora”… 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. Love it‼️
I love that so many here are 50 & up - the witchy community I’ve been looking for. 💗💗💗
It's been amazing to see so many y of us show up!
Me too‼️. I’m surprised & super pleased by it, as I am 71 in 8 days❗️. Crones unite❣️. We need to make this world powerful ❣️
This was great. I'm so glad I don't watch tiktok. I turned 54 this year. I'm in the stage of I don't give a #&@$ what people think anymore. I love the idea of Queen years ❤
Isn't that the best? I left my f$#!s in the garbage can!
You have the perfect audience. I'm turning 57 this year. I've stopped coloring my hair in 2020. I'm embracing being "REAL" like The Velveteen Rabbit. Those things that are worn and shown being loved. 🌱🐇❤📖
Oh my Goddess! The Velveteen Rabbit!!!! Yes, this is perfect.
Thanks for bringing me back to this childhood favorite 😍
Fellow 52-yr-old here, living the wonderfully imperfect witchy life. Loved this glimpse into your life. Thank you for sharing. :) For me, if witchcraft wasn't real and messy, I probably wouldn't be a witch. Right now my magical fingers are itching to get in the garden and plant, but it's a little too early for that where I am yet. So today I'll be happy to be out doing some prep work and adding intentions to my little garden area, so that hopefully wonderful things will grow this year (blessed with a green thumb, I was not, yet every spring this is how I feel most magical and connected to the earth). The lovely tour of your farm has me inspired. 💚
It's great to have weather that will allow you to prep right now. Sometimes, I find that so deeply satisfying!
I'm turning 50 tomorrow! Yay, thought I might not make it at one stage, as I'm a breast cancer survivor. We are in our crone years, and I feel the same way as you.
But I had to laugh, "not everything is social media beautiful"....said while walking around your absolutely beautiful farm"....heehee
Happy birthday fellow Aries! Mine is on the 3rd!
Happy dance that you are here. Live LARGE!
CONGRATULATIONS
Watched/listened to the whole thing! I’m currently in the thick of motherhood with 3 young boys. Childhood is magical to me and my kids show me so much magic with their curiosity. Today we’re going to make herbal salves with backyard herbs.
I love that!
Children are SO magical ✨️ I made a salve last sumer with my granddaughter with backyard herbs, and it was delight.
May your day with your boys be a joyful adventure 😊
Thank you for this video. I am 77, so consider that my crone years. I have lost my son, his father, and lastly my precious pup and have felt lost. This video has been very helpful.
Oh my, hugs to you, dear sister.
May you be held by love during this time and may a new sprout emerge in due time.
✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️✨️
Awwwwww🙏🏼🙏🏼🩷
Hi! Just found your channel.....THANK YOU FOR THIS!👍💜 I'm turning 60 on Saturday and my magic is old and comfortable and saggy and feisty and dusty and will never be otherwise 🤣 I totally own the Crone I've become. Thanks again for this... your beautiful too💜🖤
Glad you found us here!
I am so loving getting older. 😍
And I love all the spices woman that cime here to play with me 🌸
You've hit the nail on the head.. Messy is fun and messy is real ! You are a breath of fresh air actually and your farm is absolutely gorgeous. Social media tells us otherwise but I'm with you. We have to embrace where we are and be happy with it 💜 Green blessings and gratitude 💚
🌸❤️🌸
I’m 55 and turning 56 in October. Thank you for being authentically you! We need more normalcy. I think we can have a tendency to see the ‘perfection’ of others and compare ourselves and feel bad. You’re reminded helps us to realize we’re perfect right where we are. ❤
Indeed you are perfect, just as you are ❤️
Hello October Sister!!
That's so true ♡☆°•
Hey some of us live in mobile homes. Or apartments. Aesthetic is fun but not always necessary.
Reality! Let us embrace the beauty of our homes. It's about a place to rest and be ourselves, not made for tictok staged!
I love how practical this spell is! I also love the message that we are all blooming in different ways all the time- just because one part of us is not in bloom doesn't mean that another part of is isn't. Media likes to tell everyone that there is only one stage women are beautiful in and it's wrong. I also resonate with the Maiden, Mother, Queen, Crone. I've actually been thinking about those a lot recently and how I feel that the quad is much more accurate than the triplet. I feel like in some aspects I'm Mother and in some aspects I'm moving into Queen. Anyway, I love the video and glad to see you taking a chance to let us be raw with you. xo, Aurora
Hugs friend 🧡
Where have you been? I don't watch your channel because it's all beautiful and pretty and unobtainable. I watch you because I feel you are authentic and I want to learn. Your words of wisdom are greatly appreciated and you have a wonderful teaching gift. I am a 57 year old woman who began her practice in the 90's but then put it off due to lack of resources to learn and then motherhood. Now I am devouring information and somewhat regretting all of the years of knowledge I have missed. Your videos, to me anyway, are kind of like the friendly neighbor friend coming over in your house slippers for a cup of coffee and we sit around discussing all of the magical things together. If you were tik tok fake, I wouldn't watch you. You are beautiful just as you are! Please don't let all that fake social media define who you are.
Awe, thank you Sheri.
I'll admit, I've been struggling a bit lately, but it felt good to get back out here and share.
Thanks for your support 🧡
Yes to all of this! I’m 61 and I wish I had come to the realizations that you’ve already come to back when I was your age. But I guess I’m here now and that’s what matters. Thank you for being real with us! I feel like I’ve found my community with your channel.💜
I'm so happy to hear that so many women feel they have community here. It really warms my heart ❤️
"Queen years" I'm loving this!❤
A rime to rule. A time ro know your power and exercise it!
turned 50 march 28th yesterday, I like the Queen idea years, i'll take that lol. I find magic in everything, great video !! I just loved the rawness and realness. i agree with you full heartily
Thanks, Cara! Happy Birthday!
Turning 63 in 2 weeks. I’m an art witch, a kitchen witch, a shadow witch, a light worker, and so much more. I am a queen crone! While watching this video I am crocheting a shawl for my niece out of yarn that looks like it came from a dragon.
Wonderful! A little knot magic.... I love crocheting 🌸
Your videos are always worth waiting for! You speak in such a real, relatable way that lets me sit back and take in what you're saying like I'm talking with a friend. I'm 61, but I'm a baby in my practice. I've only been on this magical path for a couple of years, although was heading in this direction long before I realized it.
I'm so glad!
I love that image!
I so agree with your comment “heading in this direction long before I realized it “. Isn’t that just the way! Sometimes I feel like I just never had eyes to see the path that had been under my feet all along.
🥰 Soooo needed this this morning 🙂 I truly love when witches are straight up real! I grew up on a farm, much like yours, in MN. And would spend hours just walking around and taking it all in 💚💚💚 Miss it SO much!! Btw...dumb question here, but how do you dry those rose petals? I made it to the end of video..and I guess for me, I'm trying to get outside more and drink in nature :-) I'll be 58 in May, and my new saying is..."Life is too short, not to find what makes you happy". Thank you for this video 💕
I'm always dirty, although I do wear skirts around the farm too, but it's so intensive in spring....
I turned 50 this year! I feel being authentic, being myself and discovering the gifts that I was meant to be here at this time on earth to share and grow is where I’m at. I feel the magic for me is being in nature and my art studio. Making time for self care, meditation and some natural witchcraft makes me feel good inside and out. Thanks for sharing this video. Love your farm!
Sounds very natural indeed. Happy 50th ;-) I am loving my 50s for all the reasons you stated
I’m 56 this year. When I was 17 I tried to make everything “picture perfect” now, magic is just part of my daily, messy, creative life. I do everything according to my intuition.
I'm loving my 50s. The freedom is so damn refreshing!
Well hello there beautiful witch! I am a 57 year old witch and have been quietly practicing for many years. I am with you. Real magick is not Tik Tok. Pretty, yes. Real, probably not.
You have inspired me to head out to my garden, and into my herb cabinet, and create a sachet/talisman. Rose petals, rosemary and maybe some calendula.
Wishing you many blessings.
Calendula is another favorite of mine.
Happily watched to the end. Your Tarot channel is lovely, but this is the one I really love. I’m 10 years ahead of you age wise, but find your insights so grounding & comforting. TBH, the craft is about ritual for me. I was raised in a strict Catholic environment in the NW U.S. - decades later I am living in Europe & have long lost any religious beliefs. But I still long for the spiritual rituals of my youth - no doubt lifted from the pagans who came before - so I might say we’ve come full circle? We could go on forever on that topic yes? But anyhoo, thank you so much for your posts - for me they are a touch of home with a kindred spirit. 💗
So people just thrive on ritual. In some ways, I'm envious.
Still, each of us must be true to our calling and live it robustly
I absolutely loved the Queen stage! I’ve just turned 54 in March, and I honestly feel that everything is new and fresh and exciting….finding joy and magic in the mundane gives me joy…filling up the bird feeders in the morning, looking at the dew on my herbs in the early morning…making a meal for my family and friends…that’s my magical practice….thank you for sharing your life….❤️❤️
I totally agree!
That's exactly what I want my channel to be. A vlog on my daily life as a witch, taking people along the journey of self discovery and growing my practice, as natural as possible.
Yay!
We not only need more witches in the world. We also need more people to be as real as you are in this video. I thank you.
Aaaawe! Thanks for joining me in this. Let us be committed to our own beauty!
57 and have reached a time in my life where I'm upping my knowledge and experience by reading more specific texts, doing the deep dive on topics, so to speak. I thought I was ready to settle into my cronehood, but so not ready yet. I know two things. 1. Your house is perfect. Apart from regular upkeep, I don't see any need for change. Your house is genuine perfect - not obsessive-perfectionist perfect. 2. The idea we have one pinnacle in our life where we bloom and then it's over, as if life is linear with one trajectory, comes from patriarchy. It's so opposite to what nature teaches us, that everything happens in cycles. There's no one bloom and it's done. Everything ebbs and flows from one change state to the next. I see each stage of the cycle like a bell curve, gently curving up to the pinnacle for that stage, then gently curving down again to move onto the next stage and the cycles never end.
A lovely metaphor!
I am almost 71 and find magic in so many things. I am also ADHD so having to do a "ritual" is not always possible so I too look for tiny things and small ways to infuse magic in my days. I visit our local botanical gardens frequently and hug trees and say hello to what is blooming that day. I feed the ducks, geese and fish. At home I do similar things with the moon shinng in my window or the bees that come to visit my tiny garden. Mostly I am grateful for every spark that comes my way. My life is small but deep, calm but exciting and uniquely mine! I really enjoy your videos.
It's in the little things, the small sparkles that add up to a magical life.
I'm so glad this video showed up in my feed! I've never even been on tik tok, and rarely on instagram. I'm 62, and all I can say is life begins at 50, lol! That is when I realized I don't really care anymore what others think, I am who I am. I used to dream of a farm in the country, and turned my backyard into a mini farm with food/flower gardens, fruit trees, rabbits, dogs, cats. Life happened and now I have a condition where I cannot go out in the sun unless lots of sunscreen, and even then keep it minimal. So now I live in town, down the street from the grocery & dollar store, and Target. It's all good. I can do a LOT with candles and prayer beads and oils. So here I sit, late at night with my candle workings going, watching YT, and find you. Love your doggies! I subbed. ✌❤🧿🪄🪔🪔
Adaptability is so key. I am so loving my 50s. This is just amazing the real mental freedom I have not to struggle over small stuff!
Sounds like you have found your way into the beauty that life has for you right now.🌸🧡🌸
I just turned 40 in December and I was really dreading it. I thought I would instantly feel old and no longer beautiful. But that wasnt the case. I'm happier than I've ever been and my craft is growing and feeling more natural each day. I'm always learning and trying new things, more so than in my 20's. Thank you for this video, reminding us how life is full of Seasons.
I loved my 40s! I looked forward to them as a teen, just knowing they would be great!
I love this message. I'm a 40+ in the mother stage. Very happy sitting in this spot. I'm shedding the magickal clutter and focusing on the magickal mundane and this shift has brought so much joy into my life.
It's so wonderful being a mom. Truly winderFULL!
I always feel an extra magical buzz this time of year, when the gardens are blooming 😊
💖💖💖
Turning 50 this year is magical for me!!
Turning 50 was quite magical for me too!
You said exactly what I feel now that I am fast approaching 60. I simply can't get into the picture perfect witchery and I just find a few minutes to do what I feel. It makes me feel good and that is what counts for now.
Sexy sixties! Watch out world 🌎
If you live anywhere near the Bier Stein in Eugene, you’re living the good life ❤
Thank you so much for being the real you! I’m 57 and started on my witchy path in the past year (although looking back I’ve been one without knowing!!!)I incorporate small magical practices into my every day including using sigils and connecting with nature.You are truly blessed to live the rural life,but nature can be found wherever you are if you look hard enough!I only have a small garden,but it is filled with plants,flowers and herbs and even a few vegetables!loved you video 🥬🥒🐌🌈🌧☀️
Thanks for stopping by🌸
Nature is truly all around us. We have only to look and find Her smiling at us!
A beautiful video! I turn 48 this year, a transitional time, and I'm finding so much magic in the transformation.
It's wonderful to dive into the transition and feel the shifts! Truly magical.
April, thanks for being real with us. Frankly, it’s just so damn refreshing! If anything, it makes me appreciate you so much more.
I think we all want magic in our lives, and we want the candles and smoke and crystals…we want it all, the whole experience! But real life doesn’t always allow us the time to do all that, so we skip doing something, because we want ‘all the things.’ I believe you touched on a similar theme recently on working with our cards. I LOVE my private time for self reflection with my cards and would look forward to doing it, and then get busy and deny myself because of a time crunch.
This kind of thinking is also passed on to other experiences of having to be a certain way or we’re not doing enough. I appreciate you reminding us of how to find and SEE the magic in life’s everyday moments.
I agree that the perfection paralysis is often passed on by society, social media and even the gender issues!
So true! We all have to learn to relax and open up and accept those magical moments of life, and this video is a perfect reminder and example. So glad I found it! ♡☆°•
I love your old house. I live in an old house that nobody loves but me. Thank you for your honesty. I was watching your channel this morning. My life came to a halt about years ago. My Looms are setting up touched for years. Handspinning, soap making and crafts I found no joy in because of some health issues and abuse. 4 years ago one brother brought me honey bees. Another brother this year is teaching me the business of 🍯 honey bees. They started my journey back to life. Tilled me a garden space. I have herbs coming up again. Vegetable 🍆🍅garden is doing great. While watching your videos this morning my spirit came alive again. I can see my way again. Now to get my house in order. Thank you for all you share with us. 🐝🌻📚🪄
Oh, I love this share!
Bees have done so much for me. They give a deep, meaningful life. It has been such a blessing getting them for me, and it sounds like you, too.
I'm glad you are inspired. Keep sharing your journey, Ruth!
Went for a walk today on a new public trail I stop to observe a tree and look down and there is a piece of bark at my feet. So I pick it up, bring it home , when I look at it it looks 3d the outser piece looks like a bear standing upright, right underneath it there is a piece that looks like a man standing with his arms open and below that there is a piece shaped as a spirit. These are all layers on top of each other. So cool. Truly magical.
That IS magical. It just takes us being open and slowing down! Imagine if you were just busily rushing through your wall?
What a beautiful share. Thank you 🌸✨️🌸
Just found you this evening. What a Breath of fresh air. I love the old part of your dwelling. It's so real life witchy. I'm a farm magical being too.
Thank you for the REAL.
Sometimes we stink and creak and our hair is a bush. Just like a rose bush in winter.
We have lots of ugly places at our farm too. I mean, manure is the best for gardening. Farm animals are stanky.
Lol! Yes! I never really film my chicken coop. People have no idea what they are really like, even after mucking them....😊
Loved the analogy of the rose bush! I will be 52 next month, and definitely feel as though I am moving on to new chapters in my life., maiden, mother, "queen" is a great addition to the list. Thanks for your positive words, love your little charm to support who you are today. I am loving my new journey towards nature based religions, seeing the magic in daily life and the wonder in the little things. Blessed be xx
Blessed be!
This perspective is very much appreciated. A reminder that the world can be a magical during every day life. Seeing spring seep in is making me feel particularly witchy lately!
The spring energy is really so magical; the power of new life surging!
Just returned from my first trip to Salem, MA. I practice alone and it was so powerful just to be in a space with so many open witches.
I have yet to make a pilgrimage there! It must have been so invigorating!
I'm 20 and still so so so new at my magical practice and I loved this. I tend to remind myself that I don't have to do everything super aesthetically, beautifully, and ritually. But it's nice to get that reminder from a realistic external source.
Also I literally adore your house 💛
Let your magic come from within. As it grows, it will be so natural to who you are and very powerful!
I love the rose bush analogy! We are all going through stages in life that should be honored. And those stages rotate and change not just in correspondence with our age, but can be seasonal as well. I love authentic people who are in tune with the simple beauty of life. I am 64 and living a very simple life. I'm outside every day, weather permitting, working on our land. Shaping it into something beautiful and sustaining. In touch with everyday magic. Working on myself and my practice. Always learning. Blessings to everyone 🌹🌸
Blessings Laura!
I love the simplicity (and complexity!) of working the land. Being in touch with myself through nature is so profound.
Welcome 🌙
I'm a beginner witch and I'm seeing the difference more and more between being a witch for the aesthetic like a lot of ppl on TikTok are (because there's no way they do those rituals everyday) and being a real witch which I am learning is finding and making Magic in the everyday stuff. I find that after I watch a lot of tik toks i start to forget about that and it's finally when I watch videos like this that I remember what I like about this path again. Like for example I am finding out how special it is to use what I have around me and is relevant to me to make magic instead of following other ppls rituals / spells. I recently painted my own athame and it felt so magical and I know it's going to be ten times more powerful because It is so connected to me and my intentions. I'm in a period of discovery of myself and magic and I think your video was very helpful. Thank you
Yes! It's in the everyday. Magic is in what's going on around you. Running out to grab supplies constantly is not sustainable.
Creating your own rituals, with what you have, is priceless!
So good to see your beautiful face! I miss meeting up to hear your wise words, thank you for this, right now, when everything feels so imperfect. And little floofy Hagrid! Hooray
I miss you too!❤
We need to do a catch up
@@naturalwitchery my Zoom is still busted! I have been quarantined 😭🤣🌞🌸💕
Hiiii again.... You came up on my feed today and I am a teacher sitting at my desk binge watching your videos!
I can do that because all my kids are on a senior trip today and I'm grading papers...lol
I turned 50 in March and since I turned 49 I've almost cried everyday because life hasn't been anything close to what I imagined it to be and how scary and extremely disappointed I am to realize that. Being divorced and a single parent AND I had a baby 5 years ago made me feel like everybody was years ahead of me. But looking at this video and your last one about the long term spells I feel so much hope for myself and the future that I actually WANT!!!
THANK YOU!!
And I am also a witch ..and I feel like that's the most beautiful thing about me!!
Awe! I'm so glad to hear that you feel inspired for life. You've got a young one that will keep the magic alive.
I loved teaching high schoolers! It's such a chance to encourage kids at a time in their lives when it's a rough and uncertain, yet exhilarating!
I think your home and your life are beautiful. It's not what it looks like for me. It's what I feel when I look at it. And I can tell you work hard on the daily to upkeep what you need to for your home and life. So, that's really beautiful in itself. I love that you are showing the real authenticness of you, it's warm and welcoming and inspiring. I feel you are the rose in bloom in what it looks like for you. You have a good and beautiful life. I am so happy for you. I send you and your creations so much love. May you love, prosper, and enjoy the abundance in everything you do ❤❤❤
Thank you so much for your blessing. I recieve it with thankfulness!
Our life is a magical journey, Pause, 💖 appreciate growing older ...56 ❤ lam a tarot card collector, gemstone nut, Trail walker, gather of things and nature, Crafter, make oil blends, jewelry...its all magical ✨🎁 such a gift 🎁✨
It is such a gift; one we keep unwrapping!
Thank You for sharing! This is so precious. I feel that should learn again to see the beauty and magic in every day life. The real beauty. Not as it 'perfectly' filtered in social media.
My magical experience now is just stepping into my power, just seeing first responces from the space that I have this magic power in me. That I am, I may, can and have the right to do my magic.
Don't know were it will take me to. But I learn to trust and go forward.
May all the love, beauty and peace be with You!
Thank you for your lovely blessing. I recieve it with a grateful heart
actually your home and surrounding are a DREAM for many of us who are nowhere near having that in their life....TIK TOK IS NOT REAL.... YOU ARE REAL.... YOUR LIFESTYLE IS REAL..... what I would give to have your imperfections..... YOU ARE TRULY BLESSED 💜
I am 54 yrs young....55 in November 🎉
Awe, thanks! I just love my 50s!
Raw & real is the most powerful practice imho!
I'm just not very contrived. I struggle with ceremonial magick. This suits me just fine!
Oh wow great to see you!!!At 51 I’m exactly where you are and I love that you are showing up so authentically. I’m a complete magical mess always have been and I’m just now fully accepting and embracing it. Thank you for sharing.
I haven't seen you in some time! Hugs!!!
I LOVED this thoughtful and inspiring video! Thank you so much for the reminder of what living a magical life truly is. ❤ 🙏🏼 I’m a Waldorf middle school teacher and have been teaching for 28 years and am a practicing witch. I’ve been extremely hard on myself lately, because I feel like I’m not doing enough with my spiritual practice and craft. There is so much I want to do and learn on a daily basis…from doing more rituals, pulling cards, to starting a grimoire, etc. I’m up at 5am, get to work at 7:30 and spend my day with a beautiful class of 8th graders and a number of dear colleagues..so many energies every day. It can get quite intense and overwhelming no matter how much I shield and ground. 💚
Waldorf is full of magick! Think back to the rose ceremony you did with your students this year? The twinkled in their eyes for those who love handwork?
Maybe try infusing the classroom with more magick intentionality.
As a teacher, you create the magic of learning all day long!
Put your cards in the car and draw one at the stop light. Do a little draw on what special well of magick you can draw on that day, what head adjustment to make before entering the classroom...
Put it on the dash and think about it on the way home. Did it reflect a lesson you learned that day, portend a situation, or_____?
Thanks for loving on these kids and teaching in such a wonderful way.
Will you be getting 1st graders next year?
@@naturalwitchery
Thank you so much for the thoughtful and extremely helpful wisdom…so grateful!!! 🙏🏼 Next year, I will return to six grade. Our particular middle school loop is 6th through 8th grade. 💕
Oh yes. We are like perenials. I love your authenticity. ❤ Just walking in nature is magical ✨️ to me . Made it to the end :)
Nature is true magic!
I'm so glad I found you! Just turned 49 and a year into my witchy journey (although I knew I was one all along - was just suppressed by Catholic school....🙄). I do push myself sometimes and feel like I am not doing or learning enough, but I love your attitude! We are all just doing the best we can 💖
Yes! Be you and create your practice from the heart. You are certainly no stranger to ritual and magic spells, growing up Catholic 🌙
Welcome!
Watched all the way to the end . And really enjoyed the real life version.. I avoid the TicTok thing. 63 years old and enjoying watching my garden coming into spring… roses but also nettles 😂❤
Reminds me I need to harvest nettles before they get much bigger!
Thank you for this wonderful visit to your yard, and thank you for sharing your magical rose sachet, i can almost smell the roses from here. I retired in Nov and have been manifesting a life that makes me happy, so first, we are moving to PA! All lights are green and the plans have come together beautifully. Thats how in using magic in my life right now. 😊 love and blessings.
Wow! I'm so happy for you! I hope there is more community there for you. It took so long to retire.
Yay!
@@naturalwitchery thanks, I think there will be, there are several thriving metaphysical stores and I hope to connect starting there.
I love your "not making it a thing" perspective. Just do it. Small, simple. Or big if you feel so called. Just let your magic be true and authentic. That's where the beauty is.
Your farm is beautiful and I love these shots of the different seasons. Breathtaking.
I found some of Cocoa's fur when I was cleaning this morning. I still find it throughout the house.
I brought a tuft outside on this beautiful spring day and released it into the wind like dandelion fluff. I remembered my furry friend and said a little prayer for all of our animal companions past, present and future. ❤
What a special moment Laura. I love how you savored it and honored your furever friend
Yup, all you’ve said here. And early happy birthday, April. If I’m remembering correctly, you share a birthday with my daughter next week. I hope your day is the loveliest!
April 3rd! Thanks for remembering.
@@naturalwitchery Yes! April 3rd!!! 💖 And Doris Day, lovely singer/actress and formidable animal rights activist shares the same birthday.
Loved this! Watching your day is like watching myself in the mirror.
Sister witch!
It may be that I found you today!!! Thank you for your honesty and realness. I'm 54 and I can't wait for my new adventures whatever they may be.
I SO know what you mean. The 50s are GREAT!
I needed this video today. Im looking for my magical self
She's right there. Keep listening. I'm sure she's ready to speak 🐦🌸
I just happen to come across your video. It’s like a needed it. I have been in a funk lately. My son was killed last month and ever since it has been very hard for me to find magick in things. I’m trying to be more present again. Trying to find joy in the little things.
I am so deeply sorry for the immensity of this time for you.
May the magic that comes to you be that of comfort.
My mother's heart cries with you.
I love this so much. I did a video recently about getting out of the witchy room and showing the everyday stuff that is messy and magical as fuck. That is what I like to see in a video so that is what I vlog on. I have never been on tick tok. I am going to be 60 in June and even though that is a big number, I am so excited. We get better with age!
The sexy sixties! 😍 I'm glad you are so real on your videos. It's important as creators that we empower people to be themselves. I've always felt that with your videos.
Thanks for flying by!
I LOVE your message, essence, and authenticity!!! You remind me of a few witches I used to practice with. Thank you for helping me to reconnect with my magic in a grounded, practical way. ❤
Yay! I'm so glad. I hope my channel inspires people to do magic THEIR way ✨️🌿✨️
I'm 53 and try to be authentic and a bit messy on my channel also. Too many "perfect lives" online. New sub ❤ Love this!
Welcome!!
Let us rewind our community!
A bit late to this video, but I love this and so many of the comments are so inspiring! ❤ I’m 42 and haven’t started my motherhood phase yet - yes, a bit late to that party as well 😅. I’ve had to learn recently that it really is okay to be me and to be where I am in my life (and on my path). I love content that shows the beauty of real life - it is more healthy for us all! Many blessings and very Happy Birthday for yesterday 💖🌱✨
You're never late when living your own life. You're perfect ♡☆°•
Agreed!
You'll never regret motherhood! My children are my greatest treasure in life!
@@shesjustsomegirlOh that is a lovely way to put it! 💚
Thank you! This resonated so well with me and where I am in my life and my practice right now 💚 I just turned 52, but I'm in the "budding" stage of learning how to integrate natural witchcraft in my everyday life. I'm just about to be the owner to my childhood summer cottage and will document my journey there in a blogg and on Instagram - to be able to connect with others with similar interests for both sharing and hopefully getting new ideas and inspiration. To find your youtube channel is so inspiring since you seem to base your life on the grounded and really back to basic view of magic that I have myself. 🙏💚🌿
How exciting!!!!! Congratulations!
Please send me a link when you get your blog going.🧡🌸🧡
When watching some of your fantastic videos when handsewing a not perfect dress. I'm sewing al of your beautiful words as a reminder into my dress with intension. And it's getting more me every stitch. Thank you for being so real. Its a breath of fresh air.
Yay! Hand sewing is so meditive. The feel of the fabric in your hands, working the needle, and keeping your thread straight. Enjoy the pace of it. It brings a special magic to your day ❤️✨️❤️
Thank you for your message. I just discovered your channel for myself and was brought to tears by the love you poured out and your rose analogy. It really means a lot as I’m in a very transitional time of my life, on the verge of hopefully taking some long awaited steps into an art career. I think I’m going to make a rose charm as a reminder to myself as well. Again thank you. 🌹
You are so welcome.
Enjoy your journey of becoming. ✨️🌸✨️ I'm so glad this touched you.
Great message! Love ourselves where we are. ❤❤
Every day, as much as you can!
You are magical! Love your life and purity. Be blessed x
Many thanks 😊 Bleaaing received with a happy heart ❤️ 💙 💜 💖
I'm quite broken today so am taking it easy, for the past week, I've been making some shelves for my alter out of mdf, they are far from perfect as I'm a novice in the are, I finished them today and rearranged my alter
Hugs ❤️
I hope that reorganizing and treating has interjected the energy that you are needing right now.
Be gentle with yourself 🌙
I’ve only just found you & your message is exactly what I needed to hear today ♥️
(Starting work with Venus on Friday for self acceptance)
58 year old witch 🧙♀️ who is a messy practical witch too 😂 love the idea of Queen Years
Welcome queen! We are all powerful here, finding our way in an often messy and unpredictable fashion ❤️
I'm 52 ill be 53 May 11th. I wish I could find some more of us and have a community of us gorgeous older witches and to make some friends that are not just like minded but also are older ladies!❤❤❤❤ your so very right absolutely 💯 %
I'm going to do a video on this. It can be hard to feel alone in your craft!
@@naturalwitchery smiling 😃
I absolutely loved watching this April.
I love and appreciate your authenticity in this video April!
Not everything has to be aesthetic all of the time.
I do love aesthetics from time to time because it helps me to get into a more magical mood but for me I often find magic in the mundane and that's not always "pretty" TikTok pushes aesthetic way too hard and that platform just isn't for me...
Thank you for sharing this, it's so needed and totally relatable! 💚
Thank you, Star. All of you in our Cauldron inspired me to film again. Without all of you, thus video would not be!
Love your video messages & being authentic! 57 in September & enjoying my life amongst nature 🌱 Happy Birthday 😉
I am loving my 50s!
I agree with you. I totally get what you are saying. I have to say though, I’ve never watched your content and thought, I wish she had more candles, pretty altars, etc. I LOVE the way YOU craft. But…and I say this with so much respect to you and your lovely practice…this video? You’re kinda demeaning, mocking, and devaluing those witches who are aesthetic. I am a witch and a Libra and am all about the aesthetic “vibe” in my practice. My vibe is different depending on the sabbat, esbat and ritual. Setting up my altars in a way that is visually pleasing to me gives me that hit of dopamine and happiness just looking at it, let alone when I do my ritual. The whole set up of my rituals and ceremony IS part of my magical practice. If sharing my “beautiful’ altars and parts of my rituals attracts others to the craft and opens up an interest and curiosity within them….is that bad? Because my altar is aesthetically pleasing, doesn’t mean it is somehow superior or better. It also doesn’t make me less of a witch because I showcase my creative ability in my practice. Please don’t assume that what a witch shows aesthetically on social media is the only way that they practice and that their practice isn’t “real’”. It’s just the highlights of it. I see it so often in the craft where witches are quick to tear down other witches. They are quick to tell another witch that they are doing is “wrong”. Why? Isn’t our own path just that? Our own? We should be building each other up. A win for one is a win for all in the witchcraft community. While I may not agree with the way that others practice, who am I to suggest anything different? If it works for them, great! So what if they are young and pretty and new to the practice? (I am not. I’ll be 50 in this year and am personally looking forward to my crone phase) Again, if those young and new witches bring in other like-minded individuals who are curious….how is that bad? They will either continue to grow their practice and learn more about it or move on to something else. Either way, a win is a win for witchcraft. Mocking or badmouthing how others practice doesn’t make me or my practice look better. It’s the opposite of the message I want to give. I really try not to compare my practice with others, because that is an unhappy emotional state that I don’t want to invite in. I’m happy to boost another on their path, celebrate small victories, and mind my own cauldron.
I really hope I didn’t upset you with my comments. I’m sure I’ll get some heat back and will have maybe offended someone. Not my intention AT ALL. Please know, as hard as it is for me to post this, I’m commenting to bring some awareness to all of us that not all witches practice the same. And that is actually a beautiful thing and celebrates the freedom of witchcraft.
I wish you the absolute best of everything. Please keep showing us how YOU practice because it’s special, unique, raw, and simply magical. Just like you. Blessed be.
❤️
Hope I wasn't misunderstood. I said that I (me), am not like the tictok aesthetic, and also that there times that I love a good ritual. I enjoy aesthetic videos and even make them.
What I want to encourage people in is not having to make EVERY moment picture perfect in order to practice.
There is joy in the setup, and joy in simple folk magic. Both are lovely.
I also agree about inviting in "unhappy emotional" states through comparison. That's can be a real trap!
Thanks for sharing so completely 🌸
I think your house and farm are awesome!
I think so too!
QUEENAGER! I forget where but I heard someone it being a Queenager and I am here for it.
I love that!
I do not like witch tok I prefer CZcams myself. And it's wonderful to see a real witch as a real realistic woman not staged picture perfect faceless like real life is that way so thank you so very much! I think you beautiful and real and realistic 😊❤
Thank you so much!
I made it to the end, I tried the TikTok magic and it just didn't work for me but working with the seasons, building yourself etc which I learnt from your last video it really resonates with me! Fabulous videos best by far! ❤❤
I look forward to sharing in your journey 🌸
I love ❤ this! Thank you for being authentic and sharing. Ase. I needed to hear this. Peace and Bliss 😊 to you! Authencity and bring true to who you are and where you are in your magickal journey ✨️ is what stood out to me.
Blessing received ✨️❤️✨️Thank you!
Very lovely down to earth video, was needed since it’s been awhile since I last felt magick
I'm so glad 😊
May your heart open todand the sparkles catch your eye!
Yes, what is magikal is this video finding me! I just discovered your channel and so resonate, also man do I recognize those hills and that river, I think we're darn near neighbors, rural Yamhill county, almost Polk but yeah I spend many hours horseback along that river (when the ferry is running😊)
I'm in Lane county, outside Eugene! Oregon is so wonderful, isn't it?!
im now in my 50s - 52 in july and I love this video so much
The fabulous 50s! It's a wonderful time to be a woman ✨️✨️✨️
51, sort of in the broom closet searching. I realized I have always been different. Now I journey to know/understand why. I also understand I am still here for a reason.
What a spectacular journey! Enjoy the views of yourself from a whole new angle.💜😊💜
Hey. My house has sections all painted different colors‼️‼️. Not by choice, someone else did it 😢. But who cares, it’s snuggly and me inside, actually the outside too‼️. Pieced together, like my family. And it’s all ok. Enjoyed your walk & talk.
That is awesome! Someday it will all come together. Until then, I'm enjoying my little piece of heaven...
Great video! Thank you!
You are welcome!
May the vibes of the season support you richly 🌸🌸🌸
Love your voice. Love your home. Thank you for the dose of reality and optimism. I needed it today. ❤❤❤
I am so glad 😊
Be yourself in the way that suits YOU!
🌠 Thank you for the candid video! Right now I am actually doing a study on roses this month, how fun that I found this video now!
There are no coincidences!
You are beautiful ❤. Love your style
Thank you so much!!🌸❤️🌸
Great video. It's so nice to hear from a queen in the practice.
🌸❤️🌸
