Every witch has a unique and personal connection to a specific color that represents their identity. The chosen color holds significant meaning and reflects their magical abilities and personality traits. For some, the color that represents their witch identity may be associated with their elemental affinities or the specific type of magic they practice. Others may choose a color that resonates with their emotions, intentions, and spiritual beliefs. The choice of color to represent one's witch identity is deeply personal and can vary greatly from witch to witch. It can be influenced by cultural and historical associations, personal experiences, and even intuitive feelings.
3.5 out of 5 stars.
Apparently first-century Jesus should have been so concerned about the issue that concerns me today in the 21 st century that he should have spoken to crowds that had no inkling that one day gay marriage would be an issue in a country on the other side of the world and thus spoken on it definitively, leaving no room for wondering whether he was for it or against it. But he actually did one better like a magic 8-ball, he issues pronouncements that we can feel free to apply anytime, anywhere, to any situation, regardless of what Jesus might or might not really think about the issue.
It can be influenced by cultural and historical associations, personal experiences, and even intuitive feelings. Some witches may feel drawn to vibrant and bold colors such as red or purple, symbolizing power, transformation, and mysticism. Others may gravitate towards softer and more soothing colors like blue or green, which represent healing, nature, and intuition.

One of my Facebook friends posted a news article about the Westboro Baptist Church protesting Billy Graham. Someone (one of my friend’s friends) made the following comment:
Jesus never opened his mouth on controversial topics like abortion or gay marriage. They start from a fallacious premise that silence equals acceptance.
This comment points out what I’ve been saying for years (and something that anyone really ought to be able to recognize as bad logic). The problem is this: They argue that because Jesus (or Moses, or Paul) didn’t talk about something or talk about something very much, such silence equals tacit approval.
The biggest problem with this logic is that it is nothing more than an argument from silence, arguments which are notoriously weak. In the case of the two examples cited above, it is not unreasonable to suppose that Jesus would have been silent on these matters. Abortion was known in the Roman Empire (it was illegal but rarely prosecuted unless the husband did not know or had objected to it; it also carried little shame with it) but it was forbidden among the Jews because the Mosaic Law forbade it (though not as murder). Gay marriage is a phenomenon unknown until the 21 st century so expecting Jesus and Paul to issue prohibitions against it would be like expecting them to talk about TV or pirating digital media. There was no such thing as “healthcare” as we know it in the first century so expecting a statement from the NT on this is also anachronistic.
I realize that the Bible may very well speak in principle to these and other issues. But arguing from principle is not the same as being able to say, “The Bible says _____ about ______.”
I note here that Christians (especially what have been termed “progressive Christians”) combine such arguments from silence with positive statements in Scripture that seem, to them at least, to solidify their arguments.
Jesus never said anything about gay marriage but he did talk about loving one’s enemies and the Bible says, “God is love, so you have no foundation for denying them the right to marry except that you’re narrow-minded and bigoted.
See what happened there? It started with an argument from silence and then shifted to two truths that have little (if anything) to do with the issue at hand. “God is love” must mean that we simply approve any behavior that someone claims to be innate and therefore not responsible for. (Funny how they don’t apply this argument across the board. Equally funny how the command to love one’s enemies doesn’t apply to those who are “narrow-minded and bigoted.”)
I used to think that people who reasoned this way just weren’t that smart but this kind of reasoning is so common that there must be something else going on since there can’t possibly be that many less-than-smart people in the world.

The color that we identify with as witches can greatly impact our practice and the energy we manifest. Whether it is through the use of clothing, accessories, altar decorations, or spell ingredients, incorporating our chosen color into our magical workings can enhance our connection to our spiritual path. It serves as a visual reminder of our intentions and can help us tap into the specific energies associated with that color. It is important to remember that there are no strict rules when it comes to color associations in witchcraft. The meaning of a color can vary depending on personal interpretation and cultural context. Moreover, witches are not limited to a single color. Many may feel connected to multiple colors, each representing different aspects of their witch identity. Ultimately, the color that represents our witch identity is a personal choice and a reflection of who we are as individuals and practitioners. It can serve as a form of self-expression and empowerment, allowing us to align with our truest selves and embrace the magic within..
Reviews for "The Role of Colors in Witchcraft and the Expression of Personal Power"
1. Mary - 2 stars - I was really excited to read "What color represents my witch identity" as someone who is interested in witchcraft, but I was disappointed with what I found. The book lacked depth and substance, and I felt like the author was just scratching the surface without providing any meaningful insights. Additionally, the writing style was quite juvenile and didn't engage me as a reader. Overall, I would not recommend this book to anyone looking for a well-rounded exploration of witch identity.
2. John - 1 star - I found "What color represents my witch identity" to be a complete waste of time. The content was cliché and lacked originality. It felt like the author was recycling the same old information that can be found in countless other books and online articles. Moreover, the writing was dry and uninspiring, making it difficult to stay engaged with the book. I was expecting a fresh and thought-provoking perspective on witchcraft, but instead, I was met with disappointment. Save your money and look for something better.
3. Sarah - 3 stars - Although "What color represents my witch identity" had some interesting concepts, I felt like it fell short of its potential. The book touched on different aspects of witchcraft, but lacked depth in its exploration. It seemed like the author was more interested in listing different color associations rather than delving into the nuances of each one. The writing style was also on the simplistic side, making it feel like a beginner's guide rather than an insightful read for those already familiar with witchcraft. Overall, I found the book to be average and not particularly memorable.
