My mother went to a medium today. I'm belived i was a witch so I thought that the medium would pick up on that and say something related to that topic about me but he only said I was a fantastic kid I'm was having my doubts before but now I just don't know what to believe in anymore. Sorry if this comment is silly I just needed to say it somewhere
Being a witch is not something innate and different. It is simply a title someone may choose to bear if they practice magic. Some people may not choose to call themselves anything at all.
Hey, so as stated above the witch is a title a person may use if they practice magick. However, unless you're saying you were awitch in your past life chances are she didn't pick up on it because from my understanding mediums can only tell past, present, and future not past lives.
From what I've see. A medium will not say to you what they are not looking for. It's most likely the medium was more focused on your mother. From what I sense you're good with auras as well as light magick. The kind you will to happen. I don't see you spell casting in the traditional way. You do so by thought. You are new in this life to magick, yet old in others when it comes to what I call beam magick. That is neither dark or light magick. It is casted with the users energy for protection and to pull knowledge. You like animals, but they don't like you. It takes more time than normal for them to trust you. You are you. I don't see the will of magick in you. I see curiosity. You have much to learn . Candle magick is the best to start for you.
being a witch doesn't mean you'll bump into another with, medium, or psychic and that people will go 'oh my, your aura, you must be a witch!' [i mean, some might, but many aren't that tuned in, nor would they make a big deal out of it] i've gone to many spiritual stores and hung out with many pagans, the vast majority don't say/do anything until i would say i was pagan. the only time anyone has ever made a 'deal' out of it, wasn't even because i'm a witch. i was at my local occult store and one of the employees [really nice, love chatting with her] the first time i met her, she watched me for a bit then said 'excuse me, sorry to sound crazy, but are you aware there's a spirit following you?' and i explained that yes, his names Rori and he might appear intimidating, but he's harmless, then i asked her about the spirit by her and she told me about the spirit and we bonded over that [as crazy a story as that sounds] but the only reason that happened was someone worked in a spiritual store, and she was a psychic [the store had classes to increase your psychic abilities and one one one readings and she ran many of those workshops, so she not only did it professionally, but she felt comfortable talking to me about it] so unless there was a spirit near you, i doubt a medium would of commented about you being a witch.
Just to kind of add to what Neko, Vozel, and prsona have been saying; Even if a medium picked up on the fact that you may practice witchcraft, doesn't mean they would say anything in front of your mother anyways. Especially not knowing if your mother was aware of your practices.
The few times I've had my suspicions that someone may practice or have psychic abilities, I kept my mouth shut if someone else was around. That can put the person in a sticky situation if the person they are with has no clue. And it may not be something they want the person to know.
The only time I ever confronted someone was when I was alone with them and I was curious if they were aware you could see their pentacle necklace through their shirt (they were not aware and were thankful I said something). I casually said "That's a nice pentacle, though I don't know if you want everyone to see it since you always wear it under your shirt. Your shirts a little too see-through today to hide it though." And after they thanked me, we had a lovely conversation on why I didn't freak out when I saw it. (Back story; we were in high school and live in "the Bible Belt" as it's called. Many kids we went to school with would have contacted the principal and their pastor).
Anyways, the point we are all trying to make I believe is that a) it's not something all mediums would notice b) there are many reasons why one wouldn't say anything if they did notice c) witch is a term used by the practitioner and not all like the term/use the term to describe themselves d) witchcraft has historically been something that people kept secret and many still do so out of respect many of us don't try to "out" anyone who is keeping it a secret, or someone we don't know if they are secretive over it or not.
