Witches and that sort,
I like having honest conversations about witchcraft practices & ethics. (*my crystal conversations)
We put on a large witches' market & have vendors/visitors from several surrounding states.
I've noticed a lot of 3D printed altar & ritual items in the vendor apps.
We strive to present an artisan market of craftspeople. Also, to promote more eco-friendly items.
What are your thoughts on purchasing and using plastics as ritual tools?
@KentuckyConjurer My rubric is: does it work? For whatever metric of “work” is meaningful to the user. Does it help connect you to a spirit? Does it put you in the right mindset to have a real experience? Otherwise it’s just aesthetic tchotchkes.
I understand that.
I think maybe because I come from an animist point of view (I know not all witches are animists), that sometimes we have to overlook what we think might work better for us for the betterment of all of us. ie not polluting the place.
@KentuckyConjurer I realized after I hit post that I hadn’t really addressed your point, ie plastic vs wood or whatever. Tchotchkes made of organic material are still just vibe decor. But maybe there is there something meaningful in using natural materials to connect with a nature based spirituality.
I always have to keep in the back of my mind that not all witchcraft is earth centered. So not all witches are going to care where their products came from or if they are easily disposable or their effect on the environment.
I guess I just really like getting that info.out there for people to knowingly choose their path.
