What comes to mind when you think of a witch. Do you see an ugly old hag over a boiling caldron? Do you think all witches are other worldly women who ride around town on their brooms?
Not true of today’s witches. Witches today are regular men and women who want to live in harmony with nature. Some, though not all, practice the Wiccan religion, others just consider themselves Pagan and I have even met a couple Christian witches. They have the same hopes and dreams and family issues as you and I . I realized this when I read a letter from a woman who practices witchcraft and whose child was being bullied at school. Not because she was a witch but because her child is heavy set.
Some of my readers may know that I was an elementary school principal in my past life and after retiring I wrote several parenting books which can still be found on my other website www.project-parenting.com. One of my most popular books is called the Bully Maze Finding A Way Out in which I rovide chilldren simple strategies for effectively dealing with bullying.
Anyway, as I am currently creating fictional characters who are all witches in the series The Witches Of New Moon Beach, I started to wonder how the Wiccan community might handle bullying and I found an interesting spell which I will share with you. Of course I’m always going to encourage you to talk to your school principal and teachers first and consider trying some of the strategies I’ve outlined in my book, I thought this was just another twist on dealing with the problem. The choice is yours!

The Witches Spell for Nov. 8th: Spell to Protect Children from Bullies
Until you sort out your practical plan of action, protect your child with this spell:
Make or purchase a poppet. These are featureless rag dolls usually made of muslin. They can sometimes be found at hobby or craft stores.
Fill it with any combination of the following protective herbs:
Lavender
Chamomile
Rose Petals
Clover
Angelica
Comfrey
Elecampane
Mugwort
Add a few of your child’s hairs or nail clippings.
Place the poppet on your altar and arrange 9 pink candles in a circle around it. In between each candle place a clear quartz crystal.
Light each candle and say, “Goddess (God, protective angels or other powerful spirit), protect my child with light and love.”
Imagine a pink cloud enveloping the poppet and radiating a protective glow.
When the candles have burned down. Wrap the poppet in a pink cloth and place it in a drawer where it will be safe.
I guess this goes to show that even witches can be bullied!
