@ember.rebel.mystic: As a hedge witch who has been sharing real witchcraft and folk practices online since 2016, I’ve had one of the most bizarre experiences of my life lately. This is my witchcraft storytime. A real witch showing up for her practice for 27 years, with receipts. This is about what WitchTok lost when it traded wisdom for aesthetics and why so many of us older creators are still here, still creating, still practicing. You just showed you prefer a younger face. #witchcraftstorytimeexperience #witchinreallife #hedgewitch #folkwitch #realwitch
I’m looking for the OGs. I’m interested in what they have to say.

Id be so forever thankful if anyone could point me in the direction of actual good books to learn witchcraft from. I learn what I can from websites and some tiktoks but Im looking to learn from more reliable sources.

Been a witch since high school and worked in contract law for the last twenty years. WHY HAS THIS NEVER OCCURRED TO ME?

This os the method by which the algorithm is used to trivialize the and weaken movement and is the first step on the slow march to "rebrand" it as/with fluff.

Esa 🌙 💙 :
I agree with you on much of this. The only perspective I would add is this: Throughout history, people in different parts of the world have come up with same and similar ideas at the same time - not connected by physicality but perhaps through the collective energy or the nature of humanity. To assume someone stole an idea, and did not come to the same/ similar conclusion based on their own practice, does feel like an ego response. Is it possible they did steal it, absolutely. Is it possible it was the scenario above, that is a likely possibility too. Just something to consider.

I’d rather learn from the OG’s to be honest. They actually have done the work. So many people use the craft for aesthetics or to look cool and never bothering to do the work.

As an older witch who is brand new to the WitchTok space but has been practicing offline for years, this resonates so deeply. There is a huge difference between living the craft and just filming it. Thank you for speaking up for the practitioners who value the roots and the wisdom over the aesthetic!🥰✨

I stopped sharing online and only try to meet witches in person or in private internet capacities at this point. ive been practicing openly for 15 years now and no longer feel like sharing my "wisom" even matters so I stopped and only do my little etsy shop.

Oh no, I don’t fall for the new witches. You can’t become an expert in anything without putting in the TIME! My algorithm sent you to me so it’s working 🖤

all of my content is completely original and all of my spells are new. I worry about the day someone plagiarizes me. thankfully because it's all original, I can legally defend my property, but still.

I’m only 4 years into TikTok but had my business and practice for 16 years and talking about things on YT, FB, IG. I have so much to offer and a lot of it is free 🥺 I’ve since switched to gardening content

Fully transitioning into my crone era and I’m THIRSTY for the rich, deep wisdom of practitioners like you who’ve walked the walk. I understand the frustration you’re experiencing completely (I’ve definitely experienced it myself these days.) If you choose to keep sharing, please know that’s it’s deeply appreciated by many.

Is it possible they're using AI for help building their content? And bc your stuff from the past is online, the AI bots used your material?
