A witch is a witch, I used to hear. Wrong! Most of us specialize. Some practices are very strick while most are very personal in their approach. With a few you study and get different degrees.
I am a Eclectic, Hedge and kitchen witch who was brought up an Eclectic, Hereditary witch!
My husband is a Gardenarian, Pictish witch.
We are both at the moment solitary practicers.
This is the different types.
