Being a witch is a trend: esotericism and tarot overwhelm women in America and join feminism and anti-Trump campaigns.
It is a reportage by Luciana Bellini on D di Repubblica that tells the story of the great return of witches to America. A truly great business, a return to esotericism with brushstrokes (not even too hidden) of politics and social exploitation.
Alongside tarot cards and the evil eye to ward off, Now, there is activism. Because the new American witches are smart, 2.0, led by super social women like Amanda Yates Garcia, nicknamed “The Oracle of Los Angeles” for his spells cast against Donal Trump.
Acting as a common thread between the old and the new is the paganism, which however is declined in a modern way. No pots, daggers or corsets, no sacrifices in the woods: all these weapons have been replaced by politicized interventions, in defense of the woman's body, of abortion.
At the cry of "I am Mine” Modern witches in America gain fame and money by organizing “life path analyses”, “alchemical divination sessions” and energy purifications. They are the new sorceresses, who aim to change the world by leveraging energy. And on protest signs.
