Saying that terf witch are not witches is ignoring the blatant and often ignored racism, sexism, transphobia and homophobia in the witchcraft community. We have to accept that we have allowed these hateful minds to exists in our midst for DECADES, and fight against their hate rather than ignoring it by denial. Denying that they’re real witches is ignoring the problems in our community and we’ve done that for too long.

Agreed. We need to make the witchcraft community actively hostile and uncomfortable for TERFs and other bigots. We need to kick them out of the community instead of pretending they already aren’t part of it.

I will always support “fluffy” and “soft” newbie witches who got into witchcraft because of Harry Potter, or The Craft, or fuck, even Sabrina The Teenage Witch, because everyone starts somewhere. If pop culture is what brought them to us then I am glad, because that means more people to this community who will get to learn and grow and expand on this journey. 

It’s our job as “experienced” witches to help guide them and support and encourage their exploration of the craft. Not to ridicule or patronize them for how they personally experience or work with magic, but to help them when they need it. But remember, a lot of the path has to do with ones own personal exploration and discovery ~

ALL OF THIS YES I LOVE THIS. If you are a more experienced witch or practitioner and you catch yourself engaging in those sort of behaviors, think back to when you were just starting out. Astrive to be that more experienced witch you wish you had when you were starting out. Realize you started out as a beginner too and people can and are usually willing to learn; try to encourage yourselves to be more humble! Try to encourage yourself to use your knowledge and skills to help others!! Thank you so much for this post!!!

Absolutely. Hell, I’ve been around for like 15 years now and The Craft, Charmed, and Harry Potter absolutely influenced my interest in magic and Paganism. It’s not really a part of my practice, but it got me here. Don’t ever let anyone tell you there’s a problem with that; chances are it’s cause of their own insecurities about the fact that they’re not any different.

A little embarrassed to say it but Willow and Tara from Buffy the Vampire Slayer really influenced my interest in witchcraft and magick

You are so valid
