Witchcraft for Beginners: Stop Apologizing for Being Powerful

"You didn’t come here to be sweet. You came here to burn things down and rise from the ashes—twice."

~Darklady

If I had a bat-wing for every baby witch who whispered “sorry” after showing their spell jar, their altar, or their moon water—I could fly around the astral plane without my broom.

Let me say this loud enough for the spirits in the back:

Stop apologizing for your power.

You are a walking portal. A spell in motion.

A direct line to ancestors who hexed empires and laughed while doing it.

You don’t need to explain your path.

You don’t need to dull your rage, your intuition, or your obsession with black salt and ancient bones just because Karen from yoga thinks “witchcraft is negative.”

Karen can stick to goat milk lattes and coloring books. You’ve got veils to pierce and spirits to conjure.

I know it can be scary—especially in a world that praises “positive vibes only” and treats powerful women like unstable thunderstorms. But that’s the point.

You’re supposed to be the storm.

So if you're just starting out and feel like you're doing it all “wrong”?Good. That means you’re doing it your way.

Light the candle. Spill the ink. Stir the herbs like your life depends on it—because sometimes, it does.

Witchcraft isn’t about being perfect.

It’s about being intentional.

It’s about reclaiming your voice, rewriting your story, and making damn sure the world hears your spell when it cracks the air.

Step 1.

Stop apologizing.

Step 2.

Start casting like your bloodline is watching—because they are.
