Witchtape #79 | Guest Witch : Roxānitā

That morning, the little witch woke up from the pleasant sound of the singing birds in her forest.  With her eyes half-open and still feeling drowsy from a good night’s sleep, her heart suddenly skipped a beat from excitement when she realized the next night there would be a full moon, which meant she’ll participate in the monthly witch coven (which always happens in a different location and in the ever-changing company of two other witches).  
After finishing her morning rituals and her daily inspection round the woods, the girl said goodbye to the forest dwellers, and flew into the unknown.  She knew she would – as always - reach her destination by simply following her inner compass.  To her surprise, she was flying straight to the North … a direction she had followed never before.  After a long flight over the North Sea (which she saw for the very first time), she finally saw land in the distance.  As she came closer, she discerned a spectacular coastline with fjords and rugged mountains.  At one particular moment, her inner compass told her to turn right and fly into a majestic fjord where she flew straight to the top of a steep rock, where she was welcomed by two other women : an old witch from the land of the fjords and a middle aged witch (around 150 years old) who came all the way from the Carpathian Mountains.  The three women looked at a breathtaking sunset from their majestic vantage point high above the fjord.  Soon the night fell and the young witch was spellbound by all the twinkling stars in the sky.  She had never seen such bright stars and they seemed to be unbelievably close.  To her amazement a constellation of eight stars slowly descended towards them and soon the eight stars were right in the middle of the three witches, gently floating at eye level.  The little witch had never before felt so connected with the universe and the stars.  After a while the three witches started to float in the air and gently soared upwards accompanied by the eight stars until they were surrounded by millions of stars.  The young witch felt a strong connection with her two sisters witch and with the eight stars, and she became so energized by all this that she started to glow.  The heat in her heart became so intense that she looked down and to her amazement she saw a little pinkish light jump out of her chest, beating at the pace of her own heart.  Strangely the same thing happened with the two other witches, and their little stars had a blue and yellow glow.  The three newborn stars searched their place and settled down in their new galaxy, twinkling at exactly the same rhythm as the heartbeats of the three witches.
After that, the little witch gradually lost all sense of space and time and when she returned to planet earth in the company of her sisters witch, she was unable to tell whether this experience lasted just minutes or decades or even billions of years.  The women touched down on the same mountain top looking down over the fjord. And the little witch immediately gazed at the sky, just in time to spot a beautiful 11-star constellation (including a pinkish, a yellowish and a blueish star) slowly fading away as the night made place for yet another glorious day …

Witches are the guardians of the forests.  We're not evil or dark, just a bit shy.  And even surprisingly sweet and kind... as long as you respect the forest.
