Who is Be-witched (being a witch)?

Witch:
A witch is a female shaman, typically including divination (astrology, palmistry, Tarot, I Ching, etc.), healing (herbal medications, aromatherapy, massage, sacred sexuality, etc.), and magick. Of course men can be witches. Traditionally, witches are women, but there have always been a small number of male witches. In modern times it is much more common for males to become witches.

Early witchcraft combined magick ritual with herbal preparations, built on millennia of lore passed down through generations of wise women.

Roses magick potion:
Modern science has revealed that the rose hip (the sweet part at the center of a rose) has the highest concentration of iron of any plant (it is also an excellent source of vitamin C). A woman loses a lot of iron during her period, and a natural supplement of iron has obvious positive benefits. Additionally, there are a few dozen minor trace ingredients in rose hips, many of which help stabilize a woman’s emotions and moods while on her period.

Obviously early witches didn’t know the scientific details, but they did know that eating rose hips (either fresh, or dried rose hips used to make rose hip tea) helped with PMS during menstruation. So, taking rose hips during menstruation became a fairly standard part of witchcraft.

In fact, it is this witchcraft practice that led to the association of roses with romance. The use of rose hips or rose hip tea during a woman’s period was fairly common knowledge. The men who were close to a woman (particularly her husband or mate) would make sure that they brought their lover plenty of roses during her period. And obviously a man would have to be on intimate terms with a woman to know the right timing for when to bring roses.

Magick and Potions
Some persons believe in magick. Some don’t. For those who do believe, magick has a real effect on the physical and spiritual realm.

Many of the same principles of ethics apply equally to both magickal and non-magickal situations.

Using magick on another person without that person’s expressed consent is akin to practicing surgery without informed consent. No matter how strongly the surgeon considers the surgery to be in the best interests of the patient, the surgeon must have the informed consent of the patient. The surgeon can not force a person to have surgery
