​

One of the questions I receive most often is, "What kind of witch are you?" The truth is that there isn't a single answer.

My own practice has been built over more than twenty years of study, experimentation, historical research, mentorship, and lived experience. Rather than limiting myself to one magical tradition, my practice draws heavily from British Isles folk traditions and Appalachian folk magick while incorporating other systems that have proven themselves through study and practice.

When I mentor students, I don't teach them to become a copy of me. Instead, I teach the history, philosophy, and practical application behind magical traditions so you can build a practice that is knowledgeable, effective, and uniquely your own.

To help students build a strong foundation, I generally teach topics in three stages: Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced.

​

Beginner Witchcraft

​​

Every experienced witch was once a beginner. Before attempting complex rituals or spirit work, it's important to build a solid understanding of magical fundamentals. During this stage, students learn the core skills that nearly every magical tradition shares.

​

Crystal Magick

Crystals are often one of the first magical tools practitioners encounter. Students learn traditional correspondences, cleansing methods, charging techniques, meditation, spell applications, crystal grids, and how to build a personal relationship with the stones they work with.

Rather than relying solely on modern metaphysical trends, we also discuss where these correspondences originated and how to think critically about them.

​

Herbal Magick

Plants have played a role in magical practice for thousands of years.

Students learn the magical properties of herbs, historical folklore, methods of preparation, and practical uses in spellwork. We cover sachets, ritual baths, oils, incense, spell jars, floor washes, and creating custom herbal blends for magical purposes.

​

Tarot

Tarot was the doorway that transformed my passion into a profession.

Rather than memorizing seventy-eight definitions, students learn to understand tarot as a symbolic language. We focus on intuition, traditional meanings, card relationships, spreads, ethics, and developing confidence while reading for both yourself and others.

​

Spirit Communication

Spirit communication teaches students how to safely and respectfully interact with spiritual beings through methods such as divination, meditation, dreams, and offerings.

Protection, discernment, and healthy spiritual boundaries are always emphasized before deeper practices are introduced.

Intermediate Witchcraft

Once a strong magical foundation has been established, students begin learning more specialized forms of practical spellwork and traditional folk practices.

​

Deity Work

Working with gods and goddesses is about building relationships—not collecting patrons.

Students learn how to research deities, create devotional practices, give offerings, recognize possible signs responsibly, and approach divine relationships with historical context, respect, and realistic expectations.

​

Candle Magick

Candle magick is one of the most versatile forms of spellwork. Students learn how to select candles, dress them with oils and herbs, carve intentions, create petitions, time rituals, candle movements, and build complete candle workings for nearly any magical goal.

​

Petition Magick

A well-written petition is often the heart of successful spellwork.

Students learn several traditional methods for writing petitions, naming conventions, folding techniques, symbolic layouts, sigil integration, and how petitions function within larger magical operations.

​

Psalms Magick

For centuries, practitioners throughout Europe and the Americas have incorporated the Book of Psalms into magical practice.

Students learn the historical use of specific Psalms for protection, healing, prosperity, justice, blessings, uncrossing, and spiritual strength. We also discuss why the Psalms became such an influential magical text within many folk traditions.

​

Appalachian Folk Magick

Appalachian folk magick is one of my greatest passions.

Rooted in the traditions brought to America by immigrants from the British Isles and influenced by the diverse cultures that settled throughout the Appalachian Mountains, this living tradition emphasizes practical household magic, healing, protection, signs, omens, weather lore, and community wisdom.

Students learn both the history and the practical techniques that have been passed down through generations.

​

British Isles Cunning

Historically, the Cunning Folk served their communities through healing, protection, blessings, divination, and removing harmful magic.

Students explore the historical role of the village wise person while learning traditional charms, folk healing methods, protective workings, household magic, and practical spellcraft rooted in England, Scotland, and Wales.

​

Southern Folk Magick

Southern folk magick encompasses numerous regional traditions that developed throughout the American South.

Students study historical practices, protective work, practical household magic, regional customs, and the cultural influences that shaped these traditions. We also discuss the importance of understanding a tradition's historical and cultural context before incorporating it into one's own practice.

​

Advanced Magick

​

Advanced studies are intended for students who have developed a strong magical foundation and are prepared to explore more complex systems of ritual, philosophy, and ceremonial practice.

​

Grimoire Magick

Grimoires preserve centuries of magical knowledge through ritual instructions, spirit operations, prayers, seals, and ceremonial procedures.

Students learn how to read historical grimoires, understand their symbolism, place them within their historical context, and responsibly adapt their teachings for modern practice.

​

Goetia Magick

Goetic traditions involve the study of classical grimoires concerning the seventy-two spirits traditionally associated with the Ars Goetia.

Rather than sensationalizing the subject, I teach Goetia from a scholarly and practical perspective. Students explore historical sources, ritual structure, protective practices, spirit hierarchy, symbolism, and the importance of preparation, discernment, and ethical responsibility when studying this branch of ceremonial magic.

​

Ceremonial Magick

Ceremonial magick emphasizes structured ritual, symbolism, divine names, planetary correspondences, sacred geometry, and carefully constructed magical operations.

Students are introduced to the historical development of ceremonial traditions, ritual preparation, magical tools, correspondences, and the mindset required for more formal magical systems.

​

Philosophy of Magick

Understanding why magic works is just as important as learning how to perform it.

Throughout mentorship, students are encouraged to think critically about the deeper questions behind magical practice.

Topics include:

• What is magic?

• How does intention function?

• What role does symbolism play?

• Does belief influence results?

• What is free will?

• What is magical ethics?

• How have different traditions understood these questions throughout history?

These discussions help students move beyond simply following spell recipes and begin thinking like lifelong practitioners.

​

Learning at Your Own Pace

Although these subjects are organized into beginner, intermediate, and advanced levels, every student's journey is unique.

Some students come to me wanting to become confident tarot readers. Others are interested in folk traditions, while some wish to study ceremonial systems or deepen an existing magical practice.

Because of that, mentorship is always personalized. Together we'll build a path that fits your interests, experience level, and long-term goals.

Witchcraft is a lifelong pursuit of learning. My role as your mentor is not to give you all the answers, but to help you develop the knowledge, confidence, and critical thinking needed to continue growing long after our sessions together have ended.
