Colors can evoke feelings of deep emotion just by the sight of them. For me one of the things I’d miss most if I was fully blind is life’s colors. The human eye can see a kaleidoscope of colors but women can see more than men. Fun facts lol. What do the colors mean for our magickal works? That’s the topic for today actually. Color is typically in the candle chosen for spells, cloth for a bag, or cord for knot magick.
The knowledge for this blog comes from my decade of witchcraft experience and numerous books that I have read over that time. This entry is copied directly from my personal BOS.
