Witch articles

Below are the best articles we could find on Witch.

A witch is a person who practices the magical or occult arts. While the term “witch” is culturally seen as feminine, in contemporary times there are also many men and nonbinary people who call themselves witches. The term is used both by adherents of Wicca and by those who identify with other forms of paganism or other beliefs, similar to how the term “Christian” applies to a broad set of belief traditions. Witches can practice either solo or within a group, called a coven. While potion-making, scrying, and the creation of charms or hexes are common among some witches, other forms of practice can include veneration of one or more gods or goddesses, the observance of seasonal festivals (typically the Wheel of the Year), herbalism, and various forms of divination. There are as many varying forms of witchcraft as there are witches to practice them.
