Okay, folks, let’s dive into my little experiment with “symbols of witchcraft” today.
So, I got this idea stuck in my head, right? I wanted to play around with drawing some classic witchy symbols. I’m no artist, but I figured, why not? It’s all about the process, yeah?
Getting Started
First, I grabbed my trusty sketchbook and a few pencils. Nothing fancy, just regular stuff I had lying around. I also pulled up some images online for reference. I mean, I know some symbols, but I wanted to make sure I got them at least somewhat right.
I started by sketching out some basic shapes. You know, circles, triangles, that kind of thing. These would be the foundation for the more complex symbols.
The Messy Middle
- I tried to draw a pentagram first. Let me tell you, getting those five points evenly spaced is harder than it looks! I erased and redrew that thing like a dozen times.
- Then I moved on to the triple moon symbol. This one was a bit easier, since it’s mostly just circles. But I still struggled to get the crescents looking nice and smooth.
- I draw an Eye of Horus, and it’s not easy, my hand was shaking.
- I also attempted a few other symbols, like the ankh and a basic representation of a wand. Some were okay, some were… well, let’s just say they were “abstract”.

The (Sort of) Finished Product
After a good hour or so of drawing, erasing, and drawing some more, I ended up with a page full of slightly wonky, but still recognizable, witchy symbols. They’re definitely not perfect, but hey, I had fun! And that’s what really matters, right?
It was a good reminder that it’s okay to just mess around and experiment, even if you’re not an expert. Sometimes the best part is just the act of creating, regardless of the outcome.
