secret witches
aight so I’ve seen a lot of posts about secret witches. a secret witch is just that- a witch that keeps their business a secret. it could be because of strict parents, embarrassment, or any other reason they may want to hide it. as a secret witch myself, I’ve decided to help out by sharing some tips I’ve learned.
Baking: If you are really into cooking, then you can tell your parents that you are using the herbs for new recipes (obviously this wouldn’t work with poisonous herbs).
Decoration: When you decide to set up your altar, its super easy to just pretend that you are making a little inspiration/calming shelf of things that you find pretty. also, you can disguise your altar by adding normal things like pens, stuffed animals, post-its, etc. also by keeping crystals or rocks in a terrarium looks unsuspecting. Tips: - hide your books in places no one could look (mine are in my sock drawer) - if you have a local/nearby park, then find a quiet spot that nobody will go to and do rituals/spells there. - if you aren’t aloud to have candles, use electric tea lights instead. or, insist to your parents that you only want the candles to decorate and you won’t light them. - find ways to be home alone so you can do whatever you need to. - disguise anything witchy as a science experiment or school project. - say that herb sachets are potpourri. - pretend like knot magick is friendship bracelets. - draw sigils in unsuspecting places like your skin or the part of your foot that is covered by a shoe, if you’re really that worried. -if you happen to live by a five below i found incense for 0.20 apiece!! -also, always give talking to your parents a shot! of course if they have already told you that they think wicca or whatever you’re practicing is evil, then this wouldn’t work for you. but casually bring up wicca/witchcraft to your parent(s) and see what their reaction is. when i mentioned it to my mom, she actually ended up saying “you could give it a shot if you want” so try that.
Ok, thats all i have to share. if you have any tips of your own, please REBLOG with your own suggestions.
