Amy Kennedy The Creative Crone

A more apt term would be: A Curious Witch. Which I am. See what I did there? But I feel as if I was born “witch curious.” The sitcom Bewitched came out in 1964, I was five, nearly six and immediately fell in love and in frustration with it, even at nearly six I knew it was some kind of BS that Darrin didn’t want Samantha to use her magic. I’m certain once an episode I would be grumbling under my breath as to Darrin Steven’s idiocy.

Of course, Sam used her magic, what kind of a lame show would it have been if Samantha had been magic but NEVER used it?

Which brings me, finally, back to the topic: witch curious or curious witch, I think it’s time we all start using our magic.

You don’t have to identify as a witch in order to have a more magical life or to exude magic. I mean, what is magic?

You have to answer that for yourself–I can’t do everything :). For me it’s always having a sense of wonder, when I allow more wonder, I see more magic. Magic can be the moon, full and gigantic as it rises, it can be bumble bees, in my flower garden, so many that I hear their buzz across the yard. Magic can be the best day ever with my kids and granddaughter.

So, how do we use our own magic? Again, you have to figure that out for yourself, but I can share what its like for me. I use my magic more every time I listen to someone, really listen and give them space for what they’re feeling. I use my magic when I say what I’m thinking (as long as it doesn’t hurt someone), when I think ahead to what someone else might need.

And also, when I set out my crystals under a full moon.

When I read Tarot cards and allow the words from my intuition to flow.

When I use my creativity for anything.

Once you start paying attention to your day, you’ll notice the magical moments more.

That’s it for now.

Be brave and kind and love each other (and yourself), Amy
