Tips for Christian Witches

baby-christianwitch:

1. Charge things through prayer.

2. Listen to or sing hymns or Christian music while working on witchy stuff.

3. If you go to church or another place of worship, you probably get nice community vibes from being there. Channel that sense of community into your tools to charge them. (Though, I still recommend praying before use.)

4. If your place of worship has stained-glass windows, try to sit in the light coming through them. In my experience, it’s a very cleansing and spiritual experience.

5. Create spells based on Bible verses or passages, like a glamour based on Song of Solomon chapter 4, or a spell to be more patient with others based on Matthew 7:5.

6. If you have concerns about whether you can really be both a Christian and a witch, consider the Magi.

This past Christmas season, around the time I was beginning to think about becoming a witch, our interim pastor gave a message discussing the Magi. She pointed out that they were astrologers, and that the word Magic actually comes from the word Magi. They read the stars, and God lead them to His Son. They were shown the way to Jesus through their astrology.

I’m not certain if magic truly exists, though I WANT to believe in it. But I firmly believe, if it DOES exist, it exists because God created it, just as He created the universe and all within it. And I believe that, just like medicinal plants, humans can use magic for good and bad purposes; because that’s how God designed it, giving us the free will to decide how we will use it.

If you’re having a serious issue with debating whether or not you can be a Christian witch, take a break. Pray about it. Maybe God has a plan for you that doesn’t include witchcraft. But, if you’re feeling brief flashes of guilt and wondering if you’re sinning because you have a crystal in your pocket, think about the Magi. God used their astrological practices to lead them to His Son. Who knows what you’ll be led to experience?

I may add to this at some point.
