About The Village Witch
Hey, hi, helloooo!
So great to "meet" you!
I'm Michelle Margaret, Traditional Witch, tween-boy mama, aspiring homesteader, Coach & Mentor.
I've been practicing witchcraft since my early teens, but didn't fully come out of the broom closet until 2015.
My personal path involves a very practical approach to magick and spirituality - connection to spirit is accessible in our everyday actions, and your most potent source of magick is within you.
I don't believe complicated, elaborate ceremonies and rituals are necessary for following the path of witchcraft. Sometimes all it takes is a little extra intention putting together dinner, honouring the home as a sacred space, or preparing a honey, ginger, & lemon infusion for your little, when they're under the weather.
That's what separates a Traditional Witch from some of the more modern, structured, and deity-based paths.
A village witch, specifically, was considered a source of wisdom and healing in her community. She was someone people would turn to for advice, or when they needed a herbal concoction to assist with balancing the mind, body, or spirit.
She was a woman who felt a deep connection to the earth, and honoured that connection by working with the cycles and seasons of her local area.
And so, as I'm sure you're now seeing the connection, The Village Witch was born.
The village might now be a global one, thanks to the internet, but my place within it remains aligned with the one my predecessors fulfilled.
I'm here to guide, empower, and facilitate the healing of hearth & home with the guidance and wisdom of the hedge.
