I am a Witch and I am angry.

I am still in shock after the overturn of Roe v Wade. I am struggling with strong emotions and grief. I keep asking, what did I do to deserve this? I did nothing wrong. <br><br>I put up with constant misogynistic and sexist remarks from men. Some even on Reddit. I've had to listen to the countless lies about abortion. I had to swallow my anger as I watched Men assume they knew my body better than me, as they sat in court and claimed that we are terrible mothers, and that murder was committed on abortion clinics. <br><br>And in the end, they won. Our voices are silenced once again.<br><br>My heart hurts as I think about the future of my 2 daughters, and the future of womanhood. <br><br>I want to scream and I want to hurt. I want to burn everything to hell. I can't because I am a mother and I have responsibilities.<br><br>In my anger, I thought I would channel this emotion in a spell. It is a simple spell, and surprisingly, I got results. <br><br>Please note that I am not going for blood and harm. I want the system to be burned down. <br><br>Here is my spell:<br><br>1. I spent about an hour meditating with a clear quartz, and I wrote down what I wanted. I did not specify how, but I wrote what I wanted to happen. I want the Constitution to be rewritten. I want the system to be burned down and I want it to be rebuilt for All, not for the privileged. I want woman's voices heard. I want abortion legalised worldwide. I want our right to choose to not be questioned. I want our voices to be heard.<br><br>2. I lit 2 small candles and the coffee beans. I put the coffee beans in one of the bowls. I lit a small paper with my words written. I put the paper in the other bowl and lit it on fire with the candle. As it burned, I pictured the system, I pictured the government, I pictured the privileged burning down. I felt a rush of empowerment.<br><br>3. Once the paper burned down, I pictured the ashes as life. I felt peace. I blew on the ashes and I pictured that as the ashes were rising, so did a new system. <br><br>4. I blew out the coffee beans candle and the candle on my right. The left one, I left it lit until it burned out. <br><br>5. I repeated: <br>From the ashes, a new system shall rise 3 times. <br>My voice is heard. Woman's voices are heard. 3 times. <br><br>Many other Witches followed this spell on TikTok and Instagram. We received many comments and messages. Some told us that their candles blew out. Some said that they woke up to thunder. Others were saying that in the city and town, there were raining frogs. <br><br>I do not know if it was the spell or not but what I do know is that it gave us strength to continue the fight. <br><br>Thank you for reading.
