How To Use Color Magick In Your Witchcraft Practice

Before we get into color magick and how important colors are in the magickal world, I need to mention that color meanings are not universal. Just like herb correspondences, they are not the same for everyone. It may be written that certain colors are for specific uses, but if your intuition is telling you that a color isn’t working for you, please feel free to experiment with what feels right to you. Every single witch is different, and our minds will interpret things differently. That is what could separate a powerful witch and an everyday practitioner.

Unless you are in a coven or practice that specifies what is the “correct” way to do something, I highly suggest trying things out for yourself. Just like anything else in life, this is trial and error. If you don’t feel and believe with every inch of you that your magick is working for you, then it’s going to have a hard time manifesting into your life. You need to believe and follow your intuition.

But, with that said, it is good to see what others are doing and try what other successful witches before you have done. Then if one or two things don’t make sense for you, you can make changes. It is helpful to have something to go off of, especially in the beginning.

Color Magic for Beginners (For Beginners (Llewellyn’s)) by Richard Webster

“From our clothes to the color of our bedroom walls, we are surrounded by colors that influence our mood, energy level, creativity, and overall well being. Richard Webster offers an astonishing number of ways to use stimulating reds, soothing blues, and every other color of the rainbow to our advantage.

Webster begins with an overall picture of each color’s major aspects―its psychological influence, healing qualities, emotional impact, and magical characteristics. From there, readers learn a multitude of color-based techniques involving astrology, the aura, candle magic, chakras, color rituals, crystals and gemstones, feng shui, flower magic, mandalas, meditation, numerology, and visualization. Webster demonstrates how color can be used to attract good luck, heal illness, reduce stress, create harmony in the home, overcome depression, solve problems, and magically enhance one’s life in a variety of ways.”
