to be so for real i think a lot of people especially in progressive spaces are just rude and ignorant about witchcraft being a valid religion. like it might seem like make believe and woo woo shit to you and YEAH there's countless issues with cultural appropriation and bioessentialism within the witch community but like. man cmon that's every religion. like sorry you're a raised-vaguely-christian-and-now-atheist asshole but making fun of someone's religion that most likely pulled them out of a dark place and now currently enhances their life is not the political praxis you think it is. it just makes you pathetic and annoying. also there's a lot more to witchcraft than the shit you see online like pinterest spells and witchtok. like it's a legit religion to countless people that has many deep and nuanced practices, beliefs, and guidelines that you obviously don't know about.

#anyways. workign on a grad assignment thats related and was thinking of this #if anyone is interested im technically an hermetic scholar in the first degree under the national temple of witchcraft #i dropped out of the seminary school bc it wasnt for me but i might continue with their lay person training #my mom is continuing on with becoming a priestess though like she went to a witchcraft ritual in the woods a few months back and i think it #changed her life #like a private one by the temple like it was three days and there was a lot of religious stuff that i can't force my brain to focus on at #the moment which is why i didnt go #but anyways yeah this shit is part of my daily life #its a legit religion and if you think otherwise im giong to be honest you're pretty stupid
