The Witch Mindset - Sabrina Scott of "Witchbody" Part 2 of 2
Topics discussed:
Clapback on a Facebook comment that is against magic on Instagram
Aidan Wachter's 6 Ways
Nature as a pristine, pure thing doesn't exist!
Do witches need to go into nature to do magic?
When witches unknowingly say classist things
Are some bodies not worthy of spiritual engagement?
Doing magic in nature can be impractical
When the divine feminine is distorted via patriarchal views of nature
Technology in magic
Seeing magic everywhere (not just in nature)
See spirituality in things that are the least relatable
Everything (even "unnatural things") come from nature because it exists
The charm of artifice in nature - nature isn't totally natural, either
Magic is full of intention and oomph
Nature is about death, grotesque, decay
Witchcraft in 90's embraced death more than witchcraft today
When people bring over Christian hang-ups into neo-paganism
Spirits are not eeked out by death and decay (obviously)
Spirits are just happy to be acknowledged
