🔮 3 Poems for Witches
... to awaken your inner Witch-Archetype!
What does it mean to be a witch?
Witches are keepers of knowledge. Connecting with the language of spiritual significance. Beyond what is obvious to the eye, the witch knows how to feel the deeper dimensions.
For me, awakening the witch means returning to your inner wise one.
And to “return”, it means recognizing yourself.
Your deep, inner truth.
Being willing to face yourself.
For there, buried within your uniqueness, lays a source of wisdom.
The witch is one who honors the weaving of life.
The symbols & co-incidences.
The action,
the word,
the intention.
Understanding influence.
And taking responsibility.
The witch carries the awareness, that this wisdom was infused into the many ways our ancestors have been living before us. Seeing it for what it is, cultivating that wisdom, and infusing it into the present moment. Merging past, present, future.
Awakening the energy, that is creative energy.
Reconciling with life-force.
Moving with it, and through it, in understanding.
Acknowledging polarity — to be with it, beyond its push and pull,
consciously.
Energy in motion — the power of Emotion.
Witnessing the life-juice flowing and how to boil it, sieve it, drink it.
Unifying.
Harmonizing.
Purifying.
Magnifying.
Electrifying.
Imagining…
Honoring the Witch is to unleash your creative essence.
Allow these poems to resonate to you the frequency of the witch, as I have met this archetype:

POEM #1
Newd
What does it mean to bare yourself
Naked into the forest
Your skin without hiding
Receiving the touch of the sunlight
In places or origin, that have been covered for so long
A fresh tickle
Of light,
A fresh breeze
Of air
On your old and young skin
Of you wide and slim limbs
On your pastel pink and rosy tones
Awake, your whole organ of a body
Recognizing
Itself
As part of this world
Natural living
An ecosystem
Within an ecosystem
Microcosm to the macrocosm
And macro to the micro
Dancing without barriers
In the essence of life
Baring your true self
Showing the hidden
In freedom
To feel remembered
To realign
Your desire, your design
For breath, life, beauty
Your way of treading paths
Merged with autumn leaves
The seasons bringing change to mind
Change to molecules
Change dancing on your skin
Flashing smiles on eyes and lips
Women, re-wilded
Again, roaming the earth
Bare, bearing the body
Of creation
Divine essence
In formation
So many shapes and forms
All an entrance
Into worlds
Of being, breathing, beauty
POEM #2
Wild Woman
wild woman wash
these wide rivers
these niles of creation
without hesitation
the waves you waken
ripple through, carrying
clearly
steering,
soft, endearing
wild woman walk
these lands with power
farming soil
sow intended coils
the duration
of your time here,
signs that lead you
clearly
steering
soft, endearing
wild woman speak
this air with lightness
enter storms securely,
collecting fresh in their breezes
the oxygen rising,
filling up your lungs
with breath, divine
to help your essence shine
wild woman ignite
these fires loudly
shout desires in the crowd
remember that you are
allowed
the sparks shining, glowing,
lighting up your soul
desires, showing
clearly, steering
soft, endearing
wild woman, wear your blood
the tears you shed
the hearts you mend
the time you bend
walk these dimensions, with all your wisdom
unveil your hidden truth
POEM # 3
Vesta
Oh sacred fire,
sacred hearth
the center
of my womb
the hole in the body
of my soul
that shines bright
and glows
embers burning
soft whispers
of desires
of love healing
of warm bread
as loaves melt in each other
ovens burning layers
of old
for new sparks
igniting your medicine,
of milk laden oxen
and white horned cows
of ancient memory
the masculine is held
within your embrace
melting together
as one
bringing peace upon
into
the center
as sacred smoke
cleans spaces
as sacred song
sings divine
as sacred touch
grounds gently
body into bliss
of living, breathing
to worship the darkness
preparing us for light
and their eternal dance
