I have a hypothesis that folk- and crone magic (respectively) would work well within popular culture witchcraft. No, really.

I've got some research and thinking to do on the idea, but all I need to do is write up the conventions, correlations, and the beginning of construction (this isn't a one-and-done paper endeavor, this is like doing doctoral level work in folklore, but for fun).
I got this book and flipped first to the "Inscriptions of Power" chapter:

And I'm seeing how popculture witchery has great potential using crone magic (and folk magic) intentions. This isn't a matter of creation, but of revealing some unexplored practices.
I want to detail my study on my other wordpress blog and I'll post here as I do. This is a teaser post, but I literally just now gave words to nebulous thought.
