Masturbation, often referred to as self-pleasure or self-stimulation, is a natural and common human sexual behavior. It involves the act of touching or stimulating one's own genitals for sexual pleasure. However, there have been various perspectives and beliefs surrounding masturbation throughout history and across different cultures. One perspective that has emerged is the notion that masturbation is a form of witchcraft. This perspective views self-pleasure as an act that taps into supernatural powers or manipulates spiritual forces. It associates masturbation with witchcraft, a practice often associated with dark magic and supernatural rituals.

C is for Crochet
Crochet is magick, people might think that I am a little strange to be say it but its true. If you’ve ever been hooking away at a Granny Square and had the Goddess tap on your shoulder you will know what I mean. There is nothing more meditative than a repeating pattern and its not unusual for me to find myself in a trance state and my mind open to suggestion. I also find that I am more free in mind to write rituals and chants whilst I am working and alwas have something to hand to jot ideas down on.
One of my first experience of Hekate outside of ritual was whilst I was making a cushion cover using a granny square pattern. I found myself walking the halls of a local hospice with Hekate as she guided the dead to the next world and came back to find myself still stitching.
Its also possible to work crochet into spell work and craft learning. If you can chat ‘treble treble treble chain’ under your breath then why not something else? Admittedly I do think that the answer to every pattern problem you will ever have can be solved by a granny (be it stripe, mandala, triangle, square, hexagon so on and so forth) so repetitive patterns are my staple and they lend themselves to chants rather well.
For example, I’m currently working on a blanket using the Summer Garden Granny Square pattern from Attic24 which is an eight spoked wheel within a square. As I was working I found myself chanting and immediately had to down tools and jot it down.
The wheel is turning
The year moves on.
The wheel is turning
With my song
From solstice to solstice
And rite to rite
The wheel is turning with all its might
From Imbolc to Ostara, then the Beltane fires burn,
With the solstice the wheel is half turned,
On Lamass and Mabon to All Hallows Eve,
the Yule fire marks the start of the year.
A friend who spins her own wool (much to my envy) and I once discussed the the binding of intent into the work itself. You can do this by intent or by chat and works with both positive and negative emotion. I often focus my intent upon something that I am making as a gift, embuing it with positive wishes for the recipient.
On the flip side crochet is a great way to rid yourself of anger and confusion. I have found myself literally muttering imprecations as I place my stitches and there is nothing more therapeutic then frogging (ripping out) that entire section.
A more structured spell that I like to do is to take a small amount of black embroidery thread and a small hook (2.5 – 3mm) and make up a swatch using double or triple crochet. As you work focus on the problem or negative emotion and bind it into the stitches. Once finished take it out side, ideally somewhere exposed to the wind, centre yourself and begin to frog the work, seeing the negativity released and blown away from you. Once the entire piece is frogged loosely add the thread to a tree to be blown away, if its particularly large chop it up into a multiple of three and spread it around a little. Once it’s been left turn and leave, leaving behind your problems and negativity.
I’m a committed hooker but the same theories can apply to kniting, sewing or any other craft that involves weaving so enjoy yourself.
There is no scientific consensus or empirical evidence supporting the claim that masturbation is connected to witchcraft or supernatural practices. Masturbation is a natural sexual behavior, and the reasons people engage in it vary from individual to individual. Historically, many religious texts and cultural traditions have condemned or discouraged masturbation due to beliefs surrounding sexual morality and purity. These beliefs often stem from interpretations of religious scriptures that emphasize sexual restraint and channeling sexual desires within the bounds of marriage. The association between masturbation and witchcraft may have originated from such religious teachings. However, it is essential to approach these beliefs with a critical mindset and understand that they are based on religious and cultural norms rather than objective reality. Different cultures and religions have diverse perspectives on sexuality, and it is crucial to respect these various viewpoints without imposing judgment or shame. Ultimately, whether or not one believes that masturbation is a form of witchcraft depends on personal beliefs, cultural upbringing, and religious teachings. It is essential to recognize that individuals should be free to explore their own sexuality without fear of judgment or condemnation, as long as it is consensual, safe, and does not harm others. In conclusion, the belief that masturbation is a form of witchcraft is a perspective rooted in religious and cultural beliefs rather than scientific evidence. Masturbation is a natural sexual behavior that should be approached with understanding, respect for individual beliefs, and the recognition of the importance of consent and safety. It is crucial to foster an open and non-judgmental dialogue surrounding sexuality to promote healthy sexual exploration and well-being..
Reviews for "Masturbation and Witchcraft: Tapping into the Subconscious"
1. Jessica - 1 out of 5 stars
I found the book "Masturbation is a Form of Witchcraft" to be completely absurd and lacking in any factual basis. The author fails to provide any evidence or logical reasoning to support their outlandish claims. The book is filled with baseless assertions and misguided interpretations of religious texts. It is clear that this book is nothing more than a product of fear-mongering and ignorance. I would not recommend wasting your time or money on this pseudo-scientific nonsense.
2. David - 2 out of 5 stars
As someone who is familiar with both witchcraft and masturbation, I was intrigued by the title of this book. However, upon reading it, I was disappointed. The author makes bold claims without any substantial evidence or persuasive argumentation. The book is a mix of personal anecdotes and subjective interpretations of religious texts, which do not hold up under scrutiny. While the topic of witchcraft and sexuality can be explored, this book fails to do so in any meaningful or thought-provoking way. Overall, I found it to be a shallow and misguided attempt to demonize a natural and healthy aspect of human sexuality.
3. Emily - 1 out of 5 stars
"Masturbation is a Form of Witchcraft" is nothing more than a thinly veiled attempt to shame and guilt individuals for their sexual desires and behaviors. The author's insistence on tying masturbation to witchcraft is ludicrous and without any basis in reality. It reads like a paranoid conspiracy theory rather than a well-researched and informed piece of literature. Furthermore, the book promotes harmful ideas around sexuality, placing unnecessary guilt and shame on individuals for engaging in a normal and healthy activity. I would highly discourage anyone from wasting their time on this regressive and nonsensical book.
