Being a natural-born witch is a rare and special trait that sets individuals apart from the rest. These individuals possess unique characteristics that make them stand out in the world of witchcraft. One main characteristic of a natural-born witch is their innate understanding and connection to the natural world. They have a deep appreciation for the elements and can communicate with them effortlessly. This deep connection allows them to harness the elemental energies in their spellwork and rituals. Another characteristic of being a natural-born witch is their intuition and sensitivity to energy.
Witches are not always identifiable by their physical traits. In fact, they rarely are. However, they can be identified by the way that they live their lives. If you’re wondering if you are a witch, you more than likely already know that you are, and this list merely confirms it. If you are, you’ll be surrounded by witchcraft.
When you ve accepted your gift or gifts, you can start deliberately cultivating your power, you can make sense of the world and your life through a whole new lens, and you can begin seeking out connections with other witches.

Natural Born Witches
I recently received an email message from a young lady asking about natural born witches. She said that she and her sisters had learned that if one had a “W” on their palm then they were a natural born witch. I have a pretty strong opinion about anyone claiming anything that makes them appear to be more “witchy” then anyone else. But instead of letting that colour my reply, I did a bit of research on the Internet first. And here are my conclusions:
There are lots of theories about “natural born witches.” Some people say there is something on your palm (a W, an X, or some other symbol), some people point to certain aspects in your natal chart, some people say “you just know.” I’ve even read that being born on a Friday the 13th, or Halloween, or some other special day “automatically” makes one a witch. I don’t believe any of it. Perhaps there are people who are naturally more talented, just like some people seem to be born writers, singers, or cooks. But, with practise, dedication, and discipline, anyone can develop the skills they need. Even someone born into a family of witches (which I discuss below) will need to study a lot. Witchcraft doesn’t come easy to anyone, and if they say it does, I’d be a bit sceptical.
Witchcraft is a craft, meaning that it is something that must be learned. It is not an innate skill, although it does rely on your ability to be in tune with all you senses. This may be easier for some people then for others. Some people say that if you have felt blessed all your life or particularly in tune with nature that is because you are a natural born witch. Personally, I think it is just because you happen to focus on certain aspects and tune out others. Some people only focus on the negative, and some only on the positive. Which do you think is more likely to notice special events and feel special themselves?
Witchcraft is also a journey. It is about discovering and nurturing your spiritual side. You can not be born at the end of this journey. Perhaps, if you believe in reincarnation, you can be born a little further down the road them some, but there will always be more for you to learn. And any “head start” you feel you were born with can easily be put to waste if you don’t spend the time, energy and effort into your journey.
You might also read about people claiming to be hereditary witches (sometimes they also use the term natural born witch). These people often belong to a Family Tradition (also called a Fam Trad). This can be anything from a form of Christianity that includes magic working, to a form of pagan religion with magic working. Each one is different.
Also, when you are studying witchcraft, it is important to know that it is different then Wicca. Not all Wiccans are witch, nor are all witches Wiccans. College Wicca has a good essay about the differences: Wiccans and Witches and Pagans, OH MY!. Or you can read my essay: Wicca and Witchcraft: The Differences.
Being a witch is not what Hollywood would have the world believe. It is deeply rooted in helping others and is not causing harm to others. When a person is born a witch, white ones included, they are often full of kindness. This can make them more sensitive to certain things, but it also makes them want to help everyone. Witches will see a bird that has fallen from the nest and wants to save it. Witches are the ones that want to feed the hungry, save the poor, and will give someone the shirt off their back. This is commonly seen in children but tends to fade as they get older. When a person is born into the world of witchcraft, their kindness and sensitivity do not fade.
Natural-born witches also have a strong sense of empathy and are often highly attuned to the emotions and needs of others. They have the ability to feel the emotions of others and can provide comfort and support in times of need. This empathetic nature also allows them to effectively perform healing and protection spells for themselves and others. Furthermore, natural-born witches have a deep knowledge of herbs, crystals, and other magical tools. They inherently understand the properties and uses of these materials and are able to harness their powers in their spellwork. This deep knowledge and connection to nature's resources allows them to create powerful potions, charms, and rituals. Lastly, natural-born witches possess a strong sense of self and a deep understanding of their own spiritual path. They have a profound connection to their own intuition and are able to make decisions that align with their truest selves. This strong sense of self allows them to confidently practice their craft and share their knowledge with others. In conclusion, being a natural-born witch is a unique and special trait that encompasses many characteristics. These individuals have an innate understanding and connection to the natural world, possess heightened intuition and sensitivity to energy, have a strong sense of empathy, and possess deep knowledge of magical tools. They also have a strong sense of self and a deep understanding of their own spiritual path. These characteristics set natural-born witches apart and enable them to navigate the world of witchcraft with ease..
