Chaotic Witch Aunt | Understanding My Practice @ChaoticWitchAunt | Uploaded March 2023 | Updated October 2024, 1 day ago.
Thank you for watching.
Please note that my practice is not Italian, but Italian-American. It is influenced by the culture present in Italy before my family immigrated, because this is what was taken with us. If you want to read more about the ways in which Italian folk magic is operating and changing in the modern day: The Tradition of Segnature by Dr Angela Puca: jisasr.files.wordpress.com/2020/03/the-tradition-of-segnature-underground-indigenous-practices-in-italy-pdf.pdf
The full article I referenced in this video will be available for my Patreon members this upcoming week and more blog pieces on folk magic, Italian American traditions, and more are now part of my benefits!
