One of the types of witches is the tech witch. The tech witch believes modern devices such as mobile phones, computers, vehicles, and even architecture, have their own associated spirits or gods. The tech witch also believes in embracing technology as an inherent part of spiritual growth and uses the computer to store a Book of Shadows or grimoire. Mobile witchy apps are used to look up magical and spiritual information. For tech witches in the city, buildings and vehicles stand in place of trees and other natural items.

The Folkloric Traditional Witch Discover the power of natural magic and healing through herbs, flowers, and essential oils in this guide to green witchcraft.

The icing on the cake is truly them saying that "This yearning [for the simpler time of the past] isn’t nostalgia, which is a longing for an airbrushed memory. It is a genuine subconscious draw to knowledge that has been obscured by innovation, progress, and improvement"; when you blatantly rewrite the truth of history (as best we understand it) at your whim so as to suit false historical narratives and push an undeserved complex of superiority and non-existent persecution... What you are participating in may not be nostalgia, insomuch as you were never there to experience something to be nostalgic about later in the first place... But I promise that what you're doing is certainly far, far worse. There are some witches who choose to be initiated into a coven. Most covens are of a certain tradition, often falling under the religion of Wicca. There are some covens out there who practice witchcraft, strictly, but most I’ve come across are Wiccan-based. You can find a local Wiccan coven typically through groups on FaceBook or through local metaphysical shops, etc. Be aware, most covens require you to go through an initiation of some kind and follow the rules as outlined. 12. Eclectic Witch as a Type of Witch but really, where *does* the author get all this stuff about the green witch path? I get that the real history is much less important to witches than the mythical history (p. 21), but I care! I hate the false, insulating sense of timelessness and culturelessness it creates. If it's her own creation or that of a community located in spacetime she should say so. Green Witchcraft 1, 2, and 3 by Ann Moura is a favorite among Wiccans and Green witches alike. If you learn more towards Wicca, you’ll love Ann Moura’s books. 3. Grimoire for the Green Witch
Diaries & Calendars
We have a responsibility to tell the truth about the past, so far as we are able to do so. We have a responsibility not to do violence to it, just as we have a responsibility not to do violence in the present […] In the end we contribute neither to world peace nor to saving the planet by romanticizing the past. We must ensure that our story about the past is not at odds with the evidence, precisely so that we do not end up harming the very people— the very planet— that we are so intent, in our well-meaning way, on trying to save.”
The Green Witch: Your Complete Guide to the Natural Mag…
There's so much nonsense that I legitimately don't know what to say or where to start, so I'll start as short and simply as I possibly can: This book is shit. A masterpiece of standard Neopagan nonsense; severely disappointing, as this book comes so well recommended. Just like musical witches live for music, art witches can’t go anywhere without their ART. They eat, breathe and LIVE art. Art witches cast their magic while they make art. They use a paintbrush as a wand, paints and mixed media as their magical tools, and canvases as the vehicle that carries their intentions into the universe. 16. Divination Witch Many green witches may not associate their practice as religious. This not to say Green Witchcraft can't also be a religion, with dedicated holidays, practices, deities, and prayer. But this not necessary, as green witchcraft is also practiced by secular witches for their own personal magic. One may use the triple goddess to symbolize the cycles of nature or different deities; to me, Maiden, Mother, and Crone are both and all. Related Articles I’m dying to take a tour with Green Dean from Eat the Weeds YouTube Channel! He does wild herb and edible plant tours in the Southeastern United States. His videos are super informative and great for foraging green witches!Green witchcraft is the sister of folk magic from which it stems from, often overlapping. The green witch originates from village medicine women, healers, midwives, cunning folk, and grandmother's who appeared to have a magic touch with remedies. The green witch stems from common folk, often lower class, and solitary women who understood nature's healing before science caught up. Additionally, there are numerous directions to further reading on the subjects covered, allowing for a deeper exploration of the various topics. This is particularly useful for those who, like myself, decided upon reading this book that they'd like to know more.

The Magic of Trees by Tess Whitehurst will teach you about the magical properties of trees and how to utilize tree magic in your practice. Often green witches attach to herbs but forget the power of the trees! 2. Whispers from the Woods Her view of deities is different from mine; I'm a hard polytheist (all Gods are individuals) and she is of the all-gods-are-one-god, all-goddesses-are-one-goddess school of thought. Just a heads up, and a final note to any newcomers there are other ways to relate to the Divine. Don't take one author's word as absolute. I haven’t used any other herbal book more than this one. Scott Cunningham is a well-known Wiccan author and this book will demonstrate why. An indelible reference for the green witch to always have on-hand. 2. 20,000 Secrets of TeaGo home and in the light of the Full Moon, place a bit of your plant into a small sachet or muslin bag. The Forager’s Harvest by Samuel Thayer is a book that should be on every green witch’s bookshelf. If you’re a green witch, you’re a natural forager. Learn how to properly identify, harvest, and prepare edible wild plants with this guide. 2. Foraging and Feasting

Another of Cunningham’s books – The Complete Book of Incense, Oils, and Brews gives easy-to-use incense recipes, oil mixtures, and brews for various magical intentions as well as to honor different deities. 6. Rosemary Gladstar’s Herbal Recipes for Vibrant Health A kitchen witch, also called a cottage or hearth witch, is someone who makes magic in the kitchen and in the home using food and everyday items as magical tools. The kitchen witch is able to center his or her energy through the making of magical meals and creating sacred space at home. By the hearth or oven is the kitchen witch’s sanctuary, as well as the herb garden. Kitchen witches work with kitchen gods, household fairies, ancestors, and others to aid their magical workings. Learn how to be a kitchen witch. 3. The Hedge Witch Charge it in the Full Moon light and carry it on you (or put in appropriate place) until your dream’s manifestation comes to light. Another of Ann Moura’s green books, Grimoire for the Green Witch provides a full Book of Shadows for readers to use and adapt for their own green traditions. 4. A Green Witch’s Cupboard Green Witchcraft is the discipline of tuning into the energies of Earth through herbs 🌿. It’s an important piece in the puzzle of working with the Five Elements of Nature: Air, Water, Fire, Earth, and Spirit.The Fairy Faith in Celtic Countries by W.Y. Evans-Wentz is a timeless fairy book from the early twentieth century that every green witch should read. It gives an idea as to how the belief in fairies was widespread over the continent of Europe. Even my kids love hearing the fairy stories in this book! 5. Wildflower Folklore Let's start with something simple regarding the actual content, then... Not in 20 years of practice have I ever once heard that we "use the phrase 'living the path' instead of simply saying 'practicing green witchcraft'". If they made it up for their own practice, and the author themself wants to say that? Fine with me. Good on them... But literally no one says that. They just don't. That's not a "Green Witch" thing. Further on, when talking about practices related to Greencraft I can ignore the exclusion of Cottagecraft and Hearthcraft (the final two members of the family of Domestic practices to which Greencraft arguably belongs). And I will heartily admit that they managed a definition of Kitchencraft that's close enough within an acceptable ballpark that I have no real complaints. But her definition of Hedgewitch is just as shoddy as her historicism (we'll get to that), and leaves far too much to be desired; at this point I have zero hope that any other area of this book will be better. A Green Witch can also be a Kitchen Witch, and in many ways they are similar. Green Witches consider plants, herbs, flowers and weeds to be sacred, full of Magical potential. The Kitchen Witch definitely adheres to the keep-it-simple outlook. If something is available and contains the right symbolism, it’s fair game for Kitchen Magic. Are Green Witches Hedge Witches? All of this emphasis on "being an individual" and "forging your own path", and yet there sure are a lot of "Greencraft is [this]" statements going on here still... And honestly, after practicing for 20 years, I'm desperately curious where the author got all of this "Greencraft is" stuff. Because it's not the Greencraft I was taught; it legitimately sounds to me like they took your run of the mill Greencraft- a practice largely traditionally rooted in plants and herbalism (both medical and magical), and maybe a bit of local ecology if you wanted to get frisky... Made it about global ecology... Threw in some more generic Neopagan shit.... Dialed up the "earth worshiping Pagan" stereotype... And then just went ham with it without actually consulting anyone who practiced Greencraft.
