Witchy Quotes: Rae Beth - Hedgewitch

A single yellow candle burning bright in a granite bowl surrounded by candles, clear quartz points and labelled jars of herbs

“The Craft will live through you, and through what you bring to it. And it is these traditions, these eternal themes, which I want to convey. You will find them referred to by other writers on the Craft, and sometimes you will see them in mythology and folklore. So read widely and learn everything you can on the subject of witchcraft and Paganism. Learn, as well, the related disciplines of divination, trancework, natural philosophy, herb magic, the properties of plants and trees and all countryside lore. You will then develop you own feelings about, for example, the spring equinox and how it should be celebrated. In time you will develop your own style. This is the strength of witchcraft. Its roots are in the oldest religion and yet it is created anew, by each individual witch, every time it is practised.”
