  • Everyone is so eager to sell you books, and show you articles about how to choose what sort of witch you are - but the truth is, you don't need labels to be a witch. This is my take on why you don't need to read those stupid articles, and you are perfect as you are, right now.

    I hate this modern trend of labelling everyone. Relax, people, and just be.

      Exactly. A label doesn't help us to be anything more than we are, I feel. I mean, use it if you want to, but don't shrink oneself down to fit a pigeon hole.

    Best witchy makeup tip ever. Especially in an episode that doesn't have a witchy makeup tip in it.

      Thankyou. I will die on the hill of "Tim Curry was insanely hot". He has now entered the land of "National Treasure" I feel.

      Yeah, I'm going to waffle more next time! Definitely missing the waffle. Currently trying to figure out how CZcams Shorts work as I want to do a "Weed Witchcraft" series of super short little things.

    I land in the middle on labels. I agree all the silly labels people come up with are unnecessary. And, IMO, self-aggrandizing. If one wants a label for the practice they've cobbled together, just be honest: "Eclectic" or simply "Solitary" is enough.
    However, labels are necessary when it comes to actual witchcraft traditions. Most are unrelated to one another and differ widely. Stregheria has nothing to do with Brujeria and neither has anything to do with Obiya, and so on.

      Yes, that's very, very true. The labelling I have an issue with is the whole "I am a Green Witch" bollocks. Fine, but why does someone need a label for something that is quiet and personal to the individual? But traditions, YES. That is important, and you need to know what you are doing in a lot of those traditions. Personally I'm eternally amused by the fighting between "traditional" and "folk". Whatever floats the metaphorical eggshell boat, I guess.
      Which is a long way of saying, thanks for the comment - I agree !00%!

    I think it’s very personal. Labeling-culture has taken away the flow of discovery, journey and exploration… I was a millions things but didn’t know, and there are no words about me on the internet about my years finding myself from 13 to 20.
    I thought when I was 18-19 I wanted to join a coven, but I actually didn’t. I heard my sister talked about the ritual to get into the coven and I was like damn. I dodged one there. I would never. If people want to, go ahead. But I am a lone wolf not willing to go to those lengths just to be accepted.
    For the sake of Wiccan privacy I won’t go into details.
    That advice !! Annie 💜💜💜💜 That is such a Wiccan response 💜

      Some covens are... a whole thing. But some are truly lovely. I do yearn for the company of other witches, sometimes. But then I remember I'm so grumpy that maybe they'd hate me!

    I don't call myself a witch, I call myself a seer or caster. Others call me healer or bush dr

    • @GrumpyOldCrone
      @GrumpyOldCrone  Před měsícem

      I think we all have the right to call ourselves whatever we feel works best! I definitely love "witch" or "crone", but language is dense and wonderful and there are many words available!

    Thanks, I hate being labelled a witch or anything else. Thanks for the tip on how to answer

    • @GrumpyOldCrone
      @GrumpyOldCrone  Před 2 měsíci +1

      I feel, really strongly, that we should be able to pick what works for us best. And if that's no label at all, then that's fine! I've got so many interests that calling myself just one thing feels really weird and wrong. I started on this path without a label, and am very happy to continue the same way!

    I really hate the word 'spiritual'. I mean, wth does it represent?😂 Tina.

    • @GrumpyOldCrone
      @GrumpyOldCrone  Před 2 dny

      Exactly. It's wanting to hedge your bets, I think. I'm personally all for nailing my colours to the tree. Only not with a nail, because I'm a Gaian.
