What They Call Black Majick, We Call Survival!
By Darklady |darkwitchery.com
They say black majick like it’s a slur.
Like it’s a mistake.
Like we stumbled into the dark and need to be rescued.
But here’s the truth, and you better write it down:
We didn’t stumble into the dark.
We were born in it.
✦ The Lie of “Good Witches”
From the minute the word “witch” reemerged in pop culture, they tried to bleach it clean.
“White witches.”
“Love & light.”
“Manifestation with gratitude.”
They made the witch safe.
Palatable.
Nice.
But niceness isn’t survival.
Whitewashed witchcraft doesn't protect you when the world goes feral.
Black majick is not about being evil.
It’s about being honest.
About working with what’s real — anger, grief, power, shadow, rage — and making it into a weapon or a shield, depending on what you need.
You’ve bled for your power. You’ve screamed in silence. You’ve seen things that polite witches pretend don’t exist.
That’s why they’re scared of us.
Because black majick isn’t decoration.
It’s weaponized will.
✦ What Is Black Majick Really?
Let me spell it out for you.
Black majick is:
Binding someone who keeps crossing your boundaries — spiritually or otherwise.
Cursing abusers when justice fails.
Banishing liars, energy thieves, and manipulators from your space.
Speaking your will with venom and clarity and daring the world to flinch.
Using herbs, bones, ink, bloodlines, thread, vinegar, rust, nails, grave dust — not crystals and blessings.
It’s not chaotic.
It’s not random.
And it damn sure isn’t safe — for those who deserve to feel unsafe.
Black majick is shadow alchemy.
It’s the knowledge passed through whispers, pain, and fire.
And some of us had to claw it out of the dirt to even speak it again.
✦ Why Survival Demands It
Let’s not play dumb.
This world isn’t built for witches.
It’s built to break you, distract you, domesticate you.
So when people say,
“Why do you use black majick? Why can’t you just let go and forgive?”
You say:
“Because I don’t owe peace to anyone who caused war in my life.”
“Because some of us aren’t here to heal — we’re here to hex and rebuild.”
“Because I survived, and I’m not apologizing for what I had to become.”
Witches who use black majick aren’t cruel — we’re tired.
We’re wise.
We’re sharp.
And we’re not interested in being “liked.”
✦ Final Words from the Dark
So the next time someone tries to shame you for going dark —
for doing what needed to be done,
for lighting black candles and whispering the real names of your enemies,
for mixing rust with nettle and sealing the jar with spite —
Just smile.
Because what they call black majick…
we call survival.
We call it freedom.
We call it ours.

I have crawled out of the abyss or as white magick and muggles say rabbit hole more times than I care to count. I was born in the tween and that is where I feel safe. As this world and others as well don't want me or fears me.
This truly has to be one of the most beautiful things I have ever read! I am tired. I love the dark because to me it is safer than the daylight! I love it being a weapon and shield! I do have my own personal crystals, but I have my herbs, mortar and pestle, box of bones, I make black ink, and I spin wool thread. The more I learn, the more I see that it isn't about being wicked or any such thing, it's about standing your ground and saying ENOUGH! 🖤🖤🖤
🖤🖤🖤
I love this! It sounds like me! I do not forgive and forget, and I never will.
Yesss!! Wish I’d known or had been brave enough to seek out this knowledge in my 20’s. I knew someone I would have demolished. 😈🖤😈
