The Wicked Witch of the Web
“WICKED’
Understanding the brand name means shifting into a dimension where duality is singular, blended. There is no “good” or “evil” outside of the human mind, there is only life.
I am not evil, in fact I may be one of the kindest and most compassionate souls you’ll come across, that’s why I use my power to help you wield yours. I, likely, do not know you in this dimension, but I love you and want the best for you regardless. But in this experience I have been condemned for my beliefs, I have been made evil for my inability to accept crumbling belief systems. The general assumption is that I speak with the Universe so I must be “evil”. I get what I want so I must be hurting someone. This is what they believe, and they fear me because I will not sit idly by while I watch injustice happen. I will say what I’m thinking with passion and conviction and when my power was felt, they did not understand, so they feared me instead. They labeled me dark, evil, demonic, Wicked.
Words have power, that’s why they call it spelling.
I decided to own my label, to take what I am and use it to represent all of the oppressed who were made evil by their refusal to allow others to treat them like shit.
You know the feeling, you finally stop letting someone take advantage of you and now you’re the bad guy.
One thing I know about this life is that for too many, honesty and cruelty are synonymous. That is to say, when I tell you to stop being the victim in your own life and you’re not ready to own how you got yourself here, you tell me I’m a Wicked bitch because I will not join you in your misery, but I’ve heard worse.
The other thing I know to be true about this life is that the road to hell is paved with good intentions; I’ve been there and back enough times to be certain of this. I have just decided to do something with the wisdom I acquired during my time in the fire.
Every lashing I have ever been dealt has been alchemized; I use the scars as armor to protect my spine and now I’m able to stand up for my beliefs, and for the oppressed. That strength did not come easy, but it is mine and no one can take it from me.
I have been asked in many different ways that which is essentially the same question:
Why do you call yourself “Wicked” when you spread nothing but good?
First and foremost, it’s meant to be fun and playful. It’s a cheesy play on words. It’s not Wicked in the literal sense but Wicked like slang for awesome/radical/sick.
I’ve got a thing about duality - people can be many things and it’s stupid to put them in boxes. If you were to judge my book by its cover most people would run, but if you explore the content you’ll come to realize it’s beneficial, and then we can have fun.
But more importantly, it’s also a bit of a homage to all of the beautiful villains who weren’t really that bad after all.
It’s a stab at organized religion, because no matter how much good I do for the world, people still call me evil for my relationship with the Universe.
It’s a salute to all of the women before me who were destroyed for having the audacity to stand in their power and fight oppression. I speak on this subject publicly because they were murdered for their private practices.
And, it is something that people have assumed I am all of my life because I look good in black, so I took their hatred and made it my power, because that’s what alchemists in the modern world do.
If you’re familiar with my YouTube channel then perhaps you’ve heard me say that there is no Devil in the Craft. This is different than what you’ll hear in modern religious circles, but it’s important to know that witches never put the Devil in the Craft, the church did. They saw empowered people and bastardized them however they could. The same can be said for the concept of “demons”. The word “demon” comes from the Greek word daimon, which means “supernatural being” or “spirit”, and it was originally used to describe all types of beings, not just malignant ones. Primarily in the Craft, it was used to describe familiars. So when the church saw that pagans and witches had a connection with the animals, they assumed these animals were possessed by evil beings because it was the only way they could understand their relationship.
I don’t think many people realize just how much the modern world was influenced by the church. They changed entire belief systems through fear-mongering and violence, and they made sure that most had no choice but to accept their way of life or die fighting it.
They did the same thing with the word “wicked”.
The word “wicked” comes from the word “wicca”, which originally meant wizard in Old English, and it was first recorded in Middle English between 1225 and 1275. The church once again bastardized this term to fit their agenda, and they did it so well that we still used this word to describe evil in today’s world. “Wicca” is actually the masculine form of this word, and “wicce” was the feminine, which is where the word “witch” comes from. So, the name “The Wicked Witch of the Web” is actually a balance of both masculine and feminine energies, which we all have within us and we all function better when those energies are balanced.
When I started this brand, I knew I was going against the grain, but I’ve come to accept that this is a part of being in the business of changing minds. The one thing I would say I have in common with the church is that I too, aim to reshape belief systems. However, our MAJOR difference is that they wanted to reshape your beliefs so that you would become more compliant and easier to control. I want to reshape your beliefs so that the only person, entity, or force that controls you is yourself.
I don’t think that we can even begin to free ourselves from hatred or war until we drop the idea that there can be only one true God. I don’t think we’ll ever be free in this human experience until we realize that we are all gods to our own reality. We are all a fractal of Source consciousness, and we create our reality through our beliefs about it. We can’t be free to do so under the law and order of the organized church, and we cannot truly reconnect with our power until we get real about it.
It is my sacred mission to help you do that. There are still many who believe me to be evil because of this, but what they don’t understand is that in order to be truly powerful, you have to be incredibly high vibrational. You cannot reach a high vibration through the path of evil, so taking it would be a complete and utter waste of my time, and yours too.
That is my most important message, but I know that only those who are open minded and ready to embrace a new way of life will be able to hear it. If that is you, I thank you for being here, and for being brave enough to seek change.
Stay blessed, my friends.
