    I use spell dolls/poppets a lot, and have found that an EXCELLENT way to utilize them without anyone knowing any better is Origami! It's so easy to incorporate color magic, and there are so many shapes to choose from (I like to use butterflies for change, plant shapes for growth, birds for movement, etc.). I love leaving tips at restaurants as charged dollar bill butterflies (to bless the server with growth, transformation, and general positivity), and no one ever thinks anything about the hundreds of origami shapes and arrangements (get some glue and put several charged flowers together for a beautiful secret spell bouquet) that I have literally all over town!

    If a spell requires a candle to burn all the way down but you don't want to have to wait forever, use a birthday candle! That's been the absolute best tip I've found.

    You're *so* right about how to hide in plain sight... Triangular rock with wire & colored string? That's not a pendulum, it's a bookmark! Whispered incantation over coffee being stirred widdershins? That's not a banishing, I'm just thinking out loud! Sudden interest in multiple spices? I'm just trying to cook & eat healthier! (A really good side effect, BTW.) I'm still not sure what I'll say if a visitor opens my kitchen cabinet & finds my mortar & pestle, or jars of crushed eggshell, dried orange peel, etc. -- but I'm pretty sure I'll come up with something. :-) What's important to remember -- and you do touch on this -- is that one should practice in secret to save loved ones from being hurt, or from being ostracized or punished for following a particular spiritual path, or to maintain the peace in one's home... but no one should be practicing in secret out of shame. More power to you, and thanks for some of the most genuine, personable & enjoyable "witchy" videos on the 'Tube!

And crushed eggshells are amazing as a fertilizer for garden fresh herbs like parsley, coriander, etc. So, even if someone sees a jar full of crushed eggshells, it's no big deal.

    For Gen X, it is wonderful to see these things expressed in our culture more openly. Indeed when we were your age, it was not accepted, or always labeled as "Satan Worship". A friend of mine and I were talking recently about how proud we are of our children's generation, which seems so much more open and accepting of many ideas that were difficult when we were growing up.

    For candles you can make your own colored ones with little white tea lights and crayons!!
    Carve out the wax but be careful about the wick, you're going to want to keep that intact.
    Take the wax chunks and use the double burner method and then drop a piece of a crayon to make it colored.
    Pour that baby back in the tin and BAM COLORED CANDLES

    I’m a closeted witch because both of my parents are very Mormon. My mom says she’ll be a witch with me, but not the religious way, like, apothecary, herbs and garden. I have an altar in my bedroom, she doesn’t even know what it is. I said I was into witch craft. She said, you are lucky, when I went through my witchy faze I had to go to libraries and look for Wicca stuff, my mom thought I was crazy. And I was like, haha ain’t a faze mom. But she is pretty accepting of everything, my dad I haven’t mentioned it to because I’m scared of how he’d react. I worship Morrígan, and the Faye, and my mom says it doesn’t matter what religion I am as long as I have a good core, but I know she’s just saying that, thank you so much for making this video!

Little things like that...will be interesting to see what people make of it in the years to come.

    I live with my family and i haven’t told them that i’ve been practicing witchcraft for a few weeks but i’ve been interested for years, I am able to have a kind of witchy aesthetic because I just have jars of rainwater and moon water and candles and gems everywhere no one questions it because it looks nice to them and I keep all of my witchy things in a hidden box that no one knows about.

    I also practice in secret and I would like the share a little tip for my fellow witches! As an altar I use a painting I made (with acrylics so that the color is bright and its very hard to wash away) representing the God and the Goddess (I basically painted a tree in the middle that to me represents the spirit, and then on the left side I painted a moon, on the right a sun). It looks just like a regular pretty painting, nothing witchy about it. Personally I just love it (its temporary so I consacrate it every time) I think that its the best solution for me

      @@jeanetteo12 It takes a while and depends on each person how long the process will take as it's a personal journey.

And how I wanted to find another path that I would actually be happy with. A spiritual path that actually aligns with my beliefs and feelings.
      Also, I'm an indigenous person. And another reason I became unhappy with it was because it kept me from learning more about my indigenous culture; how anything non Christian was evil and barbaric. Not to mention Christianity's history of ethnocide and colonization.

    It isn't as much a practicing in secret thing for me, but a convenience thing for people who live in dorms or places they can't have candles, you can use those wax warmers too. I know they can be a bit pricey, but my mom gave me a couple Scentsy warmers, and I use those for some light candle magic. They're especially great for carving a sigil into and then melting to activate it...and then being able to use the wax again.
    Although, it seems to me as though the wax will eventually run out of energy, so if your spells with it start to seem like they're not working or backfiring, try changing out the wax.

    I bought my first Rider-Waite tarot deck at the General Store on Main Street U.S.A. at Disney World when I was 14 in the early '70s. Times were certainly different then.
    We were on our way to my grandmother's house for a visit and my Mom said "Just don't let Grandmother see them." Grandmother was a stern (second-generation German) Southern Baptist who didn't even allow regular playing cards in her house. I understood completely.
    'Practicing in secret' is absolutely Traditional. No witches were actually burned in the United States but they were certainly executed by the Puritans. Spiritual descendants of the original Puritans are cdefinately still around and I'm sure you know a few personally.
    The 'cloak of invisibility' was real and for personal protection. A dark gray or black cloak that lets you vanish into the shadows in the dark can save you in a pinch.

    Today I found out that I am secretly a practicing witch (of sorts). I've been driven by instinct and not formally trained. I drew sigils (directly or indirectly) everywhere for just about everything. I thought I was quite mad, but it felt so right so I kept doing it. I see auras/presences. I understood conversations begins even before you speak the first word. I dance to the flow of the air. I felt pulled by nature although circumstances limits my interactions thus far. Also living in a super conservative environment, so a lot of these things are kept mostly in secret. I guess my main way of connecting to the universe so far had been art. And through that I find myself going further and further into the world. Even then, I kinda weird people out with my rather bizarre art.
    Just so happened that I am working on a project that involves witches. Went off to do research and here I am, discovering something I feel so familiar with.

My whole family is religious so i practice in secret in my room, at schools, and anywhere i can without raising any eyes. I'm also a baby witch. like a few days old baby witch so im using what i can find and filled up half of my Grimoire of notes, rules, and how-to's out of an old small sketchbook, and filling it with all the info from your channel and other channels and searching things up. All i have right now is Rose petals from my front yard, salt, bay leafs, self-made sigils, and cinnamon. The making of your own spells is honestly really challenging right now but how to cast it can be even more difficult if you dont know what works, but my intentions are are fully clear. I have no candles, no crystals, no incense and no money of my own or a way to get some until im old enough to get and have a job, (which im going to be in about less than two months) but my friends whos parents practice witchcraft might be able to provide a little of that sorts. Dose anyone have any tips or tricks for making spells and casting? I know no body can directly give you them and walk you through it for every spell out there and i dont need that, just a little bit of guidelines until i start to understand what works best for me and what you can and cannot do. Is an altar the place you cast most spells? And how do you make one when you have little? Sorry i know that this is long and most people wont bother to read this far but i need some help. I dont have my own phone or computer with me because i got it taken a little over two months ago, so im on my moms computer so i have to be extra careful on what i look up and what i do. Your videos have really helped me in understanding and rules and how you can make things i cant thank you enough for it!!!! You and everyone whos made it to the end have a great day and a wonderful next day !

    Hanukkah candles can be bought in many colours and similar sized black candles are available on Amazon. They don’t take a long time to burn and are easy to inscribe and dress for spells.

    i grew up constantly doing crafts (thanks mum) and so within reason, if I needed something I could just say "oh yeah I need it for this craft I saw." worked almost every time.

    Just wanted to say thank you for the great advices. This morning I just bought 2 books to start discovering about this subject
    I was always fascinated but was too shy and afraid of the opinion of the people around me. You gave me trust in myself that it was the right time to start. Have a wonderful day 😊

    A really nice kitchen magick is making sigil cookies! I make them for me and my friends all the time. You can put cinnamon for power, fine eggshell powder for protection (and calcium hahaha) and so much more! And at the same time power them up with sigils and intents.

    Can I just say, I really loved this because I myself (like many other people) am practicing in secret because my mother is extremely religious and believes witchcraft to be one of the worst things a person could do. But literally the entire time I was watching this video I kept thinking “wow her eyes are beautiful”

    I moved out of my parents house years ago and I still go around and stash my blatantly witchy stuff when they or anyone else I don't know are accepting come over, which luckily isn't very often. 😉
