I love being a Feminist Witch and let me tell you why. I truly feel that I have found the right path. And it was right in front of me! When I started practicing Witchcraft, the Goddess showed Herself to me many times. I could cloud-read. It's way of divination. Most Witches would use Tarot or augury, or another form. Crystal gazing is the most popular form of skrying as oppose to my cloud-skying. But I could do it naturally, which means no book was necessary. Witches are made not born, but I did have some natural ingrained skills that helped me along with my spiritual journey. Now I feel the Goddess is always with me. She doesn't need to show Herself. I began my life as a feminist when I was a freshman in High School. I just knew something was off. Not only that but, (I hate to say it) I disliked a lot of boys in school. I became a lesbian (I was attracted to girls more) thinking that I was gay rather than a hard-core feminist. So many girls in High School were called sluts or were put-down because they had sex or that they didn't put out. Just like any other double-standard bullshit. So many people hated us gay people just because they didn't understand. One male student actually admitted that he didn't understand. I have even been through this kind of discrimination by another lesbian! She was a player, we went out and then I decided her smoking, cheating and drinking were too much for me. By the next day I heard rumors about me floating around. I had heard that she was saying that I have hairy and I was bad in bed ridiculous, right?
It’s so obvious to me that spirituality is lacking in the feminist movement. I cannot stress enough that Witchcraft (or another Neo-Pagan religion) would be a great candidate. Since women were persecuted for being witches way back when. That is just another form of sexism. What great way to flip patriarchy off by calling ourselves Witches, casting spells, worshipping the Goddess, and being empowered. Note: Witchcraft is more than that, but this particular form I am talking about is a type of Feminist Witchcraft. Since both feminism and my spirituality do empower me, just in different ways, putting them together just made my life richer and fuller. I smile everyday now, knowing that I am the Goddess' Witch, Her child.
Blessed Be!
