This is another article in understanding the magickal world, and today I'll show you some types of witches! Of course this are not all of types, there are so many! And of course, you can identify with more than one.
This list is far from complete, and I'm sorry if you are not represented or misrepresented here, so please feel free to talk to me and I'll fix anything!
Well, to begin: what is a witch?
A witch is a practitioner of witchcraft. There are no other requirements to be a witch besides the act of practicing witchcraft, because of this anyone can be a witch regardless of age, gender, sexuality, race, religion, or any other factor. Witchcraft is defined as the practice of magick primarily but not limited to the practice of thaumaturgy.
