What is a Kitchen Witch?

A kitchen witch is one that practices his/her path by using the practical side of religion, magick, the earth and the elements.  Usually this path is used by those with limited space and resources, usually suburban and city dwellers.

Kitchen witchs focus on the use of magick in the home and workplace and use readily available tools and ingredients and have a very tight budget.

A kitchen witch is never without a lunar calendar.  For postions, etc...they always use fresh ingredients.  A kitchen witch usually has their altar set-up in somewhere in their kitchen where there are readily available "tools" to use.

A Kitchen Witch, also known as a Cottage Witch is one who's magickal works are mainly centered on hearth and home.

Most of a Kitchen Witch's work is done quite literally in the kitchen and/or other areas of the home. The entire dwelling is seen as sacred space, not just a particular room where ritual is held. Cooking IMHO is a must for kitchen witchery- one would add culinary useful herbs into their cooking to bring protection, prosperity and healing to their kith and kin through meals and beverages shared.Teas are brewed to sooth the body and soul and elixers to clear the mind are steeped in magick.

Crafts and Charms in the forms of wreaths, sachets and dried herbs and flowers are likely to be found throughout the household and magick is an entire way of life, not just occasionally. Kitchen witchery can be used as ones sole practice or in conjuntion with other paths.
