Weyward

by Emilia Hart

We never thought of ourselves as witches, my mother and I. For this was a word invented by men, a word that brings power to those who speak it, not those it describes. A word that builds gallows and pyres, turns breathing women into corpses.

Absolutely loved this quote. What an interesting thought that witches were never about witchcraft and simply about pulling from the Earth's resources to heal others 💜
