Ok. Just got back from town, maybe I’m old school and showing my age here, but a few years ago, you couldn’t find Ouija, witchcraft, voodoo products anywhere. You’d have to go to a specialist store in some back alley. Now it’s in HMV, gift shops, like openly on show. Some is pop culture, sure, but alot I saw today was genuine stuff. I just thought, you know, that’s good. It’s a start to opening the broom closet. Our day will come. Here’s some of the cute stuff I got.
A crystal charging plate
A voodoo keychain.
No, it’s not you. There have been media reports of the increased popularity of both Wicca, Witchcraft and all types of paganism.
I can’t say that it’s not a good thing. For me, we all are, regardless of witch-type, animists.
Same here, just noticed an interview on BBC radio sounds app about the return of the old religion to the UK. Going to give it a listen. Thanks for the link, going to read that. I wonder if other countries are seeing this too?
Those are so cute! I know I saw the little plate in your other post, but it’s just sooo adorable!
I’d say a lot of westernized countries are, for sure. I don’t have any concrete evidence of that but I can see it based on my personal experiences and those of my friends!
Funny you mention it- I just popped into a Spirit Halloween (couldn’t believe they are already open- I thought they were only around in October!) and was surprised to see an entire section on Wicca- the decor wasn’t too surprising, but I couldn’t believe they had actual spellbooks for sale.
Spirit Halloween used to just be costumes and Halloween trinkets- but now there’s a whole place for actual magick and spell craft. Times are a-changing, and I’m not complaining!
The more witchy stuff and the easier to get it, the better if you ask me!
Oh, that’s news to me! I’ve never seen spellbook for sale in Spirit Halloween - that’s awesome! I love going in there and getting random decorations it’s a great time to find some!
Same here- I was surprised, but certainly not in a bad way! It a fun place to get Halloween decor, especially if you can make a trip there on November 1st. They have some amazing sales right after Halloween!
I went to the local bookstore and they had actually just expanded their Witchcraft section. Everything shown is related to Witchcraft, divination etc. I also had to make a run to Joanns Fabrics, they had some amazing deals out for Halloween on Sale for 40% off.
The Halloween stuff is already 40% off!?! I feel like back in the day we had to wait for Halloween to be over to get those kind of deals Not that I’m complaining haha- I’ll need to plan a trip to Joann’s!
Your bookstore looks like it has loads of fun magickal books- that’s awesome, Isabella!
but I can see it based on my personal experiences and those of my friends!
