Loki stands with the people the government seeks to harm because they cannot stand to live in a world that they do not control.

Fenrir stands with those who will dare to stand in opposition, fighting to take back the rights of those placed in harm’s way.

Jormungandr shall offer guidance and safe passage to the oppressed as they venture out in the world, and he shall watch over them from his place in the liminal space between water and land.

Hel shall care the for the fallen and the wary, those who were to tired to fight or fought too hard, the children who may have been lost in the process. She offers them food and wine, and a safe place to heal and to rest.

Nidhoggr rests at the base of Yggdrasil and at his feet lie the corpses of the oppressors and he devours their rancid spirits.

You can be an experienced with and only have like a few spells in your arsenal. You can be practicing for years and still be experienced, despite knowing less than the witch who lives next door. 

I think experienced witch is such a subjective term. What does it mean? Have you mastered all forms of witchcraft? What about an experienced kitchen witch, or hedge witch, or an eclectic with. They’ll all know so many different things, with a level of understand and spell work being different that the other. 

Some witches may know more knowledge than actual spell work and vice versa. 

What makes a witch experienced?

Witchcraft isn’t always about “connecting with the earth” or those cliche things that some witches will tell you. Witchcraft is incredibly personal, and if your craft is about regaining lost power, taking control of your life, achieving balance, or anything else, really, then that’s your craft. Don’t let anyone tell you that you’re “practicing wrong” or whatever because you’re craft isn’t like theirs.
