Psychic light is a benevolent force that ensures spiritual evolution. It is the healers and empaths’ intention to accentuate that psychic light within us. To this end some choose to train in magical arts, or become involved in metaphysical studies. Others prefer to follow their individual, often solitary mystical path. These committed women dedicate their lives to serving humanity anonymously.

Rae Beth

In her book “The Hedge Witch” Rae Beth describes these “searchers” as free spirits who integrate magic, vision, clairvoyant and healing gifts into everyday life, silently and alone. Perhaps the “Hedge Witch” is a mother, a wife or a friend who pays allegiance to the laws of Divine Mother and Her three enchanted manifestations namely the Bride, the Mother and the Crone. But of course, you will never know of this! This need to work silently might hark back to the days when witches were accused of worshipping the devil and burnt alive. Some went underground and have been practicing their unique healing undercover ever since.

The Divine Mother

The solitary magical worker will still acknowledge the Maid as the untamed and innocent aspect of Divine Mother, a young woman who begins her voyage through life in wild territory. In that process she connects to the natural world and her own primitive instincts. She is symbolically dressed in white as she is a virginal being of purity.

The Mother

The Mother is another aspect of the Divine Feminine, and she dedicates her work to nurturing duties, and gives birth to personal evolution. She is also connected to nature, and is said to walk by lakes, and the ocean, symbolically dressed in red, a color of vitality and fulfillment.

The Crone

The Crone symbolizes the wise old woman, a natural healer, using herbs and sharing her metaphysical power with others. She goes into a trance state to connect to her psychiclight and vision. She is symbolically clothed in black.

Every woman has these three aspects inherent within her Spirit at different times. But a healer who is seeking “the mysteries” accesses these variants beyond her age, for a young woman can be as wise as the crone, and an old woman can be as innocent as the maid. These evolved spiritual states mix and mingle.

A lone healer will enact healing rituals during times of magical celebration such as the Winter Solstice. The Spring Equinox, for example, heralds in freedom from useless habits and patterns, and it is a time to start anew. The Equinoxes are natural energy portals, and as we pass through them we change and become more self aware.

Some light workers will use a magical name bestowed upon them during an initiation ceremony whereby they take full responsibility for their individual calling to help humanity. Their new name symbolizes their Mystical Self and has a sacred meaning to them. When used in conjunction with their psychic light however, the name itself can be of benefit in magical ritual.


Solitary Work

The purpose of solitary “work” is to help others discover their light. The healer will invoke love for the loveless and counsel those who have lost their way, as friends and helpers. The healer and empath will also seek peace within nature, and attempt to heal the environment with personal prayers and invocations. The solitary empath’s magical oath is to work for the good of all in total secrecy. That secrecy is a power in itself, and ensures that the ego does not take over, or block the purity of the energy flowing through. Therefore, in a society based on violence, and antagonism, on competition and fear these primeval values might seem suspect, but the magical beings working with their psychic light in devotion and solitude could be viewed as a blessing to us all. In that context, the “Hedge Witch” is indeed an evolved being, whose commitment to ease the pain of the world is of great significance, especially in these challenging times!
