The dawn of the witch honor signifies a significant shift in attitudes towards witches. For centuries, witches were vilified and hunted as practitioners of dark magic, associates of evil spirits, and threats to society. However, in recent years, there has been a growing movement to reclaim and honor the history and power of witchcraft. The witch honor movement seeks to recognize the contributions of witches throughout history and challenge the stereotypes and persecutions they have faced. It aims to create a culture where witches are celebrated and respected for their wisdom, healing abilities, and connection to nature. One of the key aspects of witch honor is the recognition of the ethical and moral code that many witches adhere to.
Well the other day I signed up for some stupid Blockbuster program: which means I get even more free movies sent to me, more than I have time to watch as a matter of fact. Well, per my interest in movies about magic, I found this "The Worst Witch: The Movie" film that I had never heard of before so I decided to rent it and watch it this Saturday morning when I plan to catch up on my rough week's piling up of work to do.

One of the key aspects of witch honor is the recognition of the ethical and moral code that many witches adhere to. This code focuses on harmlessness, personal responsibility, and respect for the interconnectedness of all living things. Witches who follow this code are dedicated to using their magic and spiritual practices for the greater good, and to help others and the planet.

First, the movie stars Fairuza Balk -- star of "Return to Oz", "The Craft," and other things. First, I'd like to note that I always confuse the names "Fairuza Balk" with "Veruca Salt" -- the bad egg from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. I can't help but notice that her characters are all the same. Dorothy from Return to Oz could just as easily have been a witch - in fact, Glinda even asks her in the original Wizard of Oz if she's a good witch or a bad witch!
But let's take a moment to focus on the film in general. Take Return to Oz and combine with Harry Potter, take out any semblance of production value and you get this film. Lets look at some similarities: an old-English style boarding school filled with little witches (the movie is a girls only school.) Our star is an amateur witch with no real skills, social outcast, disliked by most of the school, she has her only real friend that's got her back, but then also has the hear of the head master/mistress. She tries to do well, but the evil second in command of the school is always out to get her. Don't forget the evil, rich, privileged and popular school bully. Throw in a "learn to fly" scene that ends badly, and a broomstick-game where our star's broom is cursed, and voila! Magically, you have cloned the same story line!
But if you add bad 1980s graphics, and a few more musical numbers than I think anyone expected, you have a movie that is identifiably "The Worst Witch."
Next up: "Cowboys & Aliens" as I work on CKI, ASG and Student Teaching stuff!
Video of the Day: "Anything Can Happen on Halloween" by. Tim Curry? This song is from the movie, and um, is very 1980s. Also, very bad. I just. I can't even describe it, I'm not sure why the universe decided it was necessary this happen/I see this. Per the comments on youtube: "I wonder if the effects guy put this video on his resume."
Song of the Day: "This is Aperture" by assorted Aperture Science Lab-bots. Alright, originally the Tim Curry thing was also the song of the day -- but since I've found this, this clearly out-does it! Parody of sorts of "This is Halloween" from Nightmare Before Christmas, only awesomer!
For her birthday, Linda gets another movie she's wished to cover since we started the podcast: The Worst Witch! It's the original film, made in 1986, based on Jill Murphy's 'Worst Witch' book series. It stars Fairuza Balk (witch goddess) as Mildred, the 'worst witch'; Diana Rigg (Olenna Tyrell in GoT, Emma Peel in 'The Avengers', Ms. Collins in Last Night in Soho, a total smokeshow) as Miss Hardbroom; Charlotte Rae (Ms. Edna Garrett in 'Fact of Life') as Miss Cackle and Agatha; and Tim Curry (you know. Tim Curry) as the The Grand Wizard all the witches lust after.
Another important aspect of witch honor is the emphasis on self-empowerment and self-acceptance. Witches are encouraged to embrace their authentic selves, connect with their inner power, and trust their intuition. Through ritual, meditation, and communing with nature, witches can tap into their own innate magic and use it to manifest positive change in their lives and the world around them. The dawn of the witch honor movement is not without its challenges. There are still many misconceptions and prejudices to overcome, and not all witches agree on the specifics of the movement. Some argue that witchcraft should remain a secretive and exclusive practice, while others believe in a more open and inclusive approach. However, despite these differences, the witch honor movement is gaining momentum and capturing the attention of mainstream society. Books, films, and television shows with positive portrayals of witches are becoming more popular, and communities of witches are coming together to celebrate their shared heritage and values. Ultimately, the dawn of the witch honor represents a turning point in our understanding of witches. It is a call to recognize and honor the power, wisdom, and contributions of witches throughout history, and to embrace the positive aspects of witchcraft for the betterment of ourselves and our world..
