a common mistake as a lot of men are witches. Another misconception about masculine witches is the term “warlock”. Once again, this idea is driven by Hollywood as this word sounds more virile.

In reality the term of “warlock” originates from the Middle English “warloghe”, and from Old English “wrloga” and stands for “the one that breaks religious belief” or “betrayer”. The term of “warlock” was used by the pagans as a word of abomination to describe one who had bretrayed his people and the ways of Nature.

Everyone knows that witches are able to cast spells. “Spell” is a word that actually derived from the old German “Spiel” and stands for “prayer”. Basically, someone who casts a spell, prays for a certain outcome; which is no different than what the followers of Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, Hinduism, etc. do. The belief is that one can harness the power of the life force of the universe to call into being what they desire.

The instruments witches use to help cast spells are ‘props’ to evoke the right ambiance and state of mind just like costumes and accessories are used by actors to help them act like the characters they are supposed to represent.

While witches are supposed to be evil by many people, the fact is, whether or not anyone is good or evil is up to the particular individual. Magic is neither black nor white, it simply does exist and how it is used depends on the user.

Finally, witches like any other follower of a religion are free to do what they want for as long as it harms none.

“For as you send, so shall it return to ye thrice-fold.”

Always remember this and happy spell casting on Halloween!
