I was blessing my tiny house space (its not permanent, just temporary) and then when I went into the kitchen area of it I heard a scraping noise. My broom and mop (both swiffers) BOTH had moved places "fell" towards the windowsill next to it, which stopped it. They've fallen plenty of times over the past 4 years and this is the first that it made that sound, which tells me there was some kind of pressure on it. I immediately had to do a space cleansing of the place.
hi my birth name was rowan, it is actually an ash tree known as the mountain ash, it is a strong tree i changed my name to ivy 10 years ago which is ogham is change and growth, i cant recall the oagham word for the mountain ash
What a wonderful little video! So very informative but also straightforward! I'm surprised this doesn't have more views. I'm an ethnically Chinese witch who is doing something very similar to this by researching into old Chinese traditions that I could use in my own craft, as a way to reconnect with my heritage and developing my practice. Stuff like this is much more niche and requires a bit of researching too, so I'm grateful to have it made easily accessible to someone like me who is on the outside but still very interested in learning about other folk magic practices. Would it be alright if someone like me was to incorporate these methods as part of my practice?
@@thewitchandhare Haha I suppose not! Though I'd rather have the blessing of someone from that community if possible, given how things with cultural appropriation are a hot topic in the witch community, especially regarding the use of white sage. Cultural appropriation is somewhat of a foreign concept to most Chinese people, if not a total non-issue, since we actually like seeing foreigners engaging with our culture (respectfully, of course) and practices. It is endearing and makes us happy when people want to learn about it. I understand this isn't the case for other cultures and communities though, so I just want to be safe xD Thank you for responding btw!
@@linwong1494 I understand what you mean! I actually think the issue with white sage is not the plant itself, but calling the cleansing of a space "smudging" which is a particular native american ceremony that contains more than just cleansing. Also the commercialisation of white sage is becoming a problem and indigenous people who harvest their sage ethically are having a harder time getting access to it which is bad! Usually white sage is fine to use if you buy directly from indigenous people and support them and don't call what you do as 'smudging'. Though I personally just avoid using sage myself and use native irish plants like juniper etc. As for irish practices, so long as you do your research and respect the culture it came from, there is no reason you can't practice irish folk magic! That's the whole reason why I share info on my channel :)
I’m 2nd generation Irish in America. We had one of those trees always in our backyard and never knew what kind of tree it was. Looks like it was there for a purpose. Cead Mille Failte.
please feel free to contact me for mmore irish pagan information from a pagan born and raised to a pagan, my irish lineage also dates back about 800 years in ireland, i am connected to my ancestors and am delighted to share knowledge
Hi :) In the video I actually corrected myself with a *star at @1:34 because both words rowan and mountain ash were used during my research. I did eventually realize they were the same plant :)
At the moment there are no Irish folk magic books that help the reader practice in a modern way like other modern witchcraft books do. Irish folk magic is hidden in books about folk medicine, in folklore and tradition archives and a couple of books documenting charms, superstitions etc. Here are a few books I use, you will need to have basic understanding of magic and witchcraft in order to pluck out useful magical info to use in a modern way: Irish Folk Medicine by Patrick Logan Ancient Legends, Mystic Charms, and Superstitions of Ireland by Lady Wilde Ancient Cures, Charms and Usages of Ireland by Lady Wilde Irish Druids and Old Irish Religions by James Bonwick Irish Superstitions by Daithi O hOgain Folklore archives also contain magic if you know what to look for: www.duchas.ie/en On duchas search for words associated with witchcraft "luck" "protection" etc or even tools like "broom" or "bottle" etc
I think Rowan trees grow in the US, google you state or city and see if they grow in your area. You can air dry them or dry them slowly in the oven. You'd likely find them at local nature parks etc. Otherwise you may need to purchase the berries from local witches or shops that stock dried herbs/berries. Try Etsy too if you're really stuck.
Why should we protect from fairies are they rude to humans? Can you explain please?I am from sri lanka and I am curious to find out witchcraft n fairies.
In irish culture, fairies are not to be messed with. They steal children, can give humans elf-shot (make people go insane), make crops go bad and can give bad luck. The irish highly respect them but we also try and stay clear of them as it can be bad news for us if we do something to offend them. In irish culture fairies are also called Aos Si, they are not the kind of fairies you might be thinking of (tinkerbell types), they come in all shapes, sizes and horrors.
@@thewitchandhare Oh. Terryfying! Thank you for the information. I've never heard about bad fairies. Anyway love your culture so much..thank you again 💖☘️🙏
They are sticking ads on your video, so you must be a good witch (background music attracts the bot and the absence of curses makes it "brand safe" for ads).....any tips on warding off a black coven? Asking for a friend :)
Oh I didn't know there was ads on my videos, I wonder if I can turn them off. I dont get anything from them myself I'm not sure what a black coven is but if you want to avoid certain people, carrying Rowan like my video says keep bad people away, especially if you put intention into it for those specific people. I'm sure there's lots more you can do as well and my video here can probably be helpful in warding other witches and people.
@@thewitchandhare UA-cam now puts ads on any videos that they deem to be "brand safe" and the only way to stop it is with a sprinkle of profanity; dropping the F bomb usually does the trick. A black coven is a group witches that practice black magic to harm others in order to elevate themselves. Rowan won't suffice, but not to worry I have been given another stick to beat them with. Thanks for replying.

Little do you know, irish folk magic was practiced by Christians in Ireland and many of the things discussed here are folk traditions of the Irish Christians which funnily go hand in hand with witchcraft nowadays.
This video is really well made! I love all the adorable animals and the music is great ♥️🌿
These are such wonderful protections I appreciate you sharing
I love these folk practices very fun to learn about both historically and for fun.

There is nothing wrong with incorporating other folk traditions into your practice. I also practice italian and american folk magic! :)

Do you have any good book recommendations on Irish folk magic? I have been hunting can't seem to find one.

Irish Folk Medicine by Patrick Logan
Ancient Legends, Mystic Charms, and Superstitions of Ireland by Lady Wilde
Ancient Cures, Charms and Usages of Ireland by Lady Wilde
Irish Druids and Old Irish Religions by James Bonwick
Irish Superstitions by Daithi O hOgain
Folklore archives also contain magic if you know what to look for: www.duchas.ie/en

How do I get Rowan tree berries to make a bracelet? I live in the US.

My cat has black fur but he is black and white, could I still use the black fur and it have the same effect?
Yes! Any black hair from a cat will work :)
