65. Symbolism Raises Some Great Points

Humans have been using symbols, pictures and art throughout all of history to pass on knowledge and tell the stories of their peoples. Pictograms and symbolism then became a way for cunning folk, witches and healers to communicate with one another in a time where spoken language could not be used for fear of persecution. Join us this week as Felicia takes us through the 10 most commonly known symbols used by ancient and modern witches alike. This is by no means a extensive list of symbols, but it is a great place to start if you are new to symbols and would like to use them in your day to day life, spells and rituals. Symbols are a great way to not only enhance your rituals and spells but also to feel more deeply connected to this collective of witches that have come before us and who we practice alongside today.
