Witchcraft Series: Types of Witches - Nocturnal Witch
nocĀ·turĀ·nal -Ā done, occurring, or active at night
What is a Nocturnal Witch?
A Nocturnal Witch is a witch that works and draws power from the night, from the darkness that surrounds them. A Nocturnal Witch is not someone that solely practices their craft in the night.
Is this a left handed path?
I do spells at night, am I a Nocturnal Witch?
No. Thereās a difference from doing spells at night and drawing energy from the night to do spells. Nocturnal witches primarily work at night, yes, but when they do a spell or something of the sort (or just need a bit of energy) they take energy from the darkness that surrounds them. They work with things that are associated with the night and darkness.Ā
Iām a Nocturnal Witch, does all my witchy businessĀ have to occur at night?
No, but remember Nocturnal Witches are mostly active at night. If you can find a completly dark, no sun lit room, then you can do your witchy business at 3 in the afternoon because your surroundings are dark and you can draw the power from that.Ā
I want to become a Nocturnal Witch, where do I start?
Energy work. You need to be able to draw energies from the night and the darkness. While you work on that you can begin researching things associated with the night (i.e deities, colors, animals, lunar corresponds, etcā¦).Ā
Can I cast any kind of spell at night?
Yes. Hereās a list of what is at itās strongest during each lunar phase:
New Moon: new beginnings, love spells, job/wealth spells, healing,Ā protection, shadow work
Waxing Moon: constructive magic, success, relationships
