Your Inner Witch

"The best part is that you're already a witch. You don't become a witch; you remember you are one.

- From Inner Witch by Gabriela Herstik

Although I didn't read this particular book until later, this quote perfectly describes my experience.

For most of my life I didn't know about anything witchy or even witch-adjacent. I had some surface level knowledge of the kinds of things women's magazines dabbled in, like astrology, but that was it.

Until things started to change. Some people might call it an aha moment, a spiritual awakening or a shifting of beliefs.

I've heard it called many things, but for me it definitely felt like remembering.

It started with books I was reading. I was noticing references to things that had never stood out to me before - incantation bowls, spells, magic and women with a certain kind of knowledge and independence.

It felt like being nudged to look further, explore more. So I did.

And what began as something fun and intriguing to read about has evolved over the years to become a central part of who I am. Those nudges were something inside of me begging to come out of hiding.

What is nudging you?

You might know exactly what's hiding inside of you. You may be the one who put it there and covered it up.

Or it might be something you need to discover or remember.

It might be the beginnings of big change or it might just be the desire to do some everyday things differently.

Pay attention to what's drawing your attention.

It's your intuition calling you towards the thing your soul needs right now.

Start to engage with it and let the process of remembering begin.
