Without a doubt, many people see themselves as witches
and practice what they call magick or witchcraft. Most do not see themselves
as traditional Satanists. Either they do not believe in Satan or they don’t
worship him. Instead, they see witchcraft as a way of accessing the power of
the spirit world and of nature.
The recent surge in media spirituality has included
large doses of witches and witchcraft. On TV, “Buffy the Vampire Slayer’s” Willow
discovered that she was a powerful and gifted witch and used her powers (mostly)
to fight evil. The young and attractive women of “Charmed” are
witches with even more impressive supernatural powers.
And, of course, the media phenomenon that is Harry Potter has made one particular
group of witches and wizards hugely popular with kids, teens, and adults alike.
