Welcome back, Witches! This week, we’re stepping into the powerful realm of Magical Names—those sacred, chosen identities that hold intention, mystery, and meaning. 🌙✨ Whether you're drawn to a name through dreams, ancestry, or magical practice, we’ll explore the history behind taking a magical name, how different traditions use them, and what it means to name (or rename) yourself with purpose. 🖤🔮 So get in, Loser—grab your journal, light a candle, and let’s uncover the magic in a name. 🕯️📜🌿
