I don’t wear a pointy hat, eat children or cast curses.
But I do use my intuition, the power of words to create, and I innately understand my role as a Healer, a Guardian of the Earth, an activator of Heart and Power, a Teacher and a Quantum Creator of the world in which I live.
For hundreds of years, the collective fear of our innate feminine power has caused us to kill witches.
“Witches” stood in the way of religious power and control. “Witches” could heal people with their knowledge, their Hearts and their herbs, often better than physicians. (Did you know it was the “witch”, Florence Nightingale, who taught physicians to wash their hands between patients to prevent the spread of infection?)
Witches could foretell the future by paying attention to patterns and if the powers-that-be didn’t like the obvious facts, they killed the witches.
To be a witch meant you stood in your power, spoke your truth, used your gifts to help others, compelled people to do the right thing, created with the future in mind, offered care and compassion to your community, had a deep connection to Source and built the world around you with unwavering faith.
To step into our true power, our ability to heal and align the world, to take up our roles as Healers, Guardians of the Mother, Leaders, Teachers and Builders of an equitable, peaceful, just and sustainable world, we must heal the Witch Wound.
In all the years that I’ve worked as a Healer in the world, I’ve watched people again and again, hold themselves back because of the Witch Wound.
The Witch Wound is the ancestral and spiritual memory of hundreds of years of being killed for your wisdom, your intuition and your healing ability. We store this wound on a genetic level. It’s in our cells, in the dark recesses of our mind and it still plays out archetypically and literally on the planet to this day. (People are still being killed for being witches.)
What are some of the symptoms of the Witch Wound?
• Guilt
• Shame
• Fear
• Shutting down your power
• Denying your desires
• Feeling cut off or disconnected from your true identity
• Not valuing yourself
• Not setting good boundaries
• Over-pleasing
• Hiding out
If you feel your Purpose burning inside of you but you hold yourself back, struggle with visibility, have a self-sabotage pattern that keeps you stuck in the same place, are afraid to speak your Truth and fear saying what is yours to say, you may be struggling with the ancestral lineage of your Witch heritage.
Science tells us that we can carry up to 14 generations of memories in the proteins that regulate the expression of our DNA. The odds are pretty high that you have a witch in your ancestral pedigree.
It’s time to heal the Witch Wound.
