The Kitchen (or Cottage) Witch...for me, this is the epitome of what I have always viewed witches as being ever since I was a child. It is that unobtrusive and eccentric woman who grows herbs in her gardens and about her house, who has developed a unique and unusual relationship with the wild things that visit her yard and inhabit her grounds. It is the woman who has the ancient knowledge and wisdom to incorporate the magickal use of herbs in her everyday life-in the food she prepares, in the water and solutions that she uses to clean her home, in the incense she burns to smudge her living quarters.


It's not the flashy publicity oriented media image of a witch that people seek out...it is the quiet Wise Woman in the unusual house down the road; the woman people whisper about curiously amongst themselves, the woman cocooned in ancient mysteries and magickal ways.


This is the Kitchen Witch.
