Being a witch

When you are a witch,everything is possible. You are given many information. Witchcraft is so to say a path to wisdom. I have always seen it that way. When you get in touch with magick you become more aware of the world around you. You begin to see many patterns but a different perspective is present.
As a witch you will confront yourself with 13 goals. Those are :

1. Know yourself. 2. Know your Craft. 3. Learn. 4. Apply knowledge with wisdom. 5. Achieve balance. 6. Keep your words in good order. 7. Keep your thoughts in good order. 8. Celebrate life. 9.Attune with the cycles of the Earth. 10. Breathe and eat correctly. 11. Exercise the body. 12. Meditate. 13. Honor the deities.

Witchcraft is about learning and growing. Each witch is a priestess on her/his own and therefore, can establish a contact with the deities on her/his own. 
Being a witch means having the knowledge most people don't. However, a witch is always balanced and knows how with knowledge there is also a responsibility. How you use your knowledge is up to you. Certain paths have some rules. (Wicca has it's rede) 


But being a witch also has it's benefits. Being a witch means having 13 powers.


 13 powers do the witches claim
Their right of lineage by the Goddess name
Tie a know and say the words
Or hand on head - the blessing conferred
A witch can give a success in love
Curse or bless through deities above
Speak to beasts and spirits alike
Command the weather cast out a blight
Read the heavens and stars of the above
Divine the future and give a good advice
Conjure treasure and bring fortune to bear
Heal the sick and kill despair
This is my birthright to have and to share
Blessings upon you
May the spirits be fair!

This is one of my favorite texts from my book of shadows. After I read it for the first time I just thought -Being a witch is a wonderful gift- ツ And yes,it really is.

It has been a while since my last post on this topic. I've been so busy lately with preparations for college,tattooing and for a big part enjoying in these warm days so I didn't manage to find the time to write. If you haven't read the first post on this topic,you can read it here. HEREDITARY WITCH - The term hereditary witch, is given to the witch who has inherited the magick gifts through family. These witches usually come from a long chain of witches that goes even centuries into the past. They are born with magick gifts that they discover early in life and start learning about magick even from childhood. Of course, these gifts and general interest in magick may skip a generation or be found just on the specific part of the family. For example,only males or females get the "witchy blood"  Each family has it’s own unique traditions that are passed through books of shadows and many other magickal writings. Usually they stick together as a family rather than
