Magick Terms

Astral Travel- Using your astral body in order to travel to different places, usually on the astral plane. Also astral projection.

Astral Plane- The plane of existence directly parallel to our own. The astral plane most resembles the physical plane. Some believe that the astral plane may also be the spiritual plane. 

Shaman- A medicine wo/man and traveler between world. Known for having extensive knowledge and being wise. 

Magick- As opposed to “magic” denotes the actual, very real magick that is performed in witchcraft. Magick is, essentially, using the energies around you to influence change in the physical or non-physical worlds. 

Witch- A practitioner of magick, who usually ties magick in to their religion, though not always. 

Magician- A practitioner of Ceremonial or High Magick. Usually concentrates their practice on the magick itself rather than using magick as a religious practice. 

High Magick- Also Ceremonial Magick is a practice of Magick that involves ritualistic practices. Usually High Magick is very precise, and has a lot of dogmatic principles. 

Practical Magick- Magick that is less stringent, and uses common items as much as possible. 

Green Witchcraft- The use of nature and natural items in their craft. Herbs, dirt, stones, etc. may be used. 

Kitchen Witchcraft- Witchcraft that weaves magick into drink and food.

Cottage Witchcraft- Similar to kitchen witchcraft, cottage witches often weave magick into household items such as blankets, clothes, and even the house itself.

White Magick- Magick that is generally considered to do good things. In ceremonial magick, White Magick is considered magick that communicates with angelic beings and dieties.

Black Magick- Magick that is intended to cause harm to yourself or others. 

Grey Magick- Magick that is somewhere in between white and black. Grey Magick Practitioners usually practice magick that is on the white spectrum, but do not fear curses and hexes. Their philosophy: One must know how to curse before they can heal. 

Sigil- A magickal symbol that usually represents a word or group of words to focus intent.

Runes- A set of sigils that are commonly used in divination. The most common runes that are found are the Elder Farthark runes. 

Divination- The art and practice of divining the past, present, and future using certain tools such as cards, runes, bones, etc. 

Psychic Terms

Medium- One who speaks with and possibly sees spirits.

Psychic- One who is considered clairvoyant, clairaudient, and is usually a medium. Many witches actually avoid this term altogether, however, because they prefer to simply be called Witch.

Clairaudience- The ability to hear things before they happen. 

Clairsentience- The ability to feel things before they happen.
