Cross and Crossroads: A Guide to Using Magick for Social Justice
November 18, 2019 by J. Allen Cross

Since the beginning, magick has been expressly reserved for those in need. More specifically, it’s been the key to revolution and liberating oppressed people from tyranny. This is seen through The Gospel of Aradia, The Old Testament, Operation Cone of Power, and the conjure workers that covered The Underground Railroad with their Hoodoo works. This means magick finds its natural home in the world of Social Justice. In recent years, we’ve seen many attempts to utilize witchcraft in this manner, including a nationwide call to “Hex Trump”. However, many of these campaigns have been fruitless, and all contain similar fatal flaws. In this article we will discuss these flaws, potential remedies, and ways to utilize magick effectively in our fight for social justice.

First we have to understand that not all targets are easily affected by magick. Especially high-profile individuals like political leaders, CEOs, celebrities, and dictators. This is because a lot of other individuals and circumstances are tied into their fate. That and the fact that people in high standing are often covered in some manner by their supporters; more on that later. This accounts for why even with a mass movement to “Hex Trump” he still remains at large and continues to threaten the rights of others. Though, I have to admit, the sink hole that opened up on the White House lawn is one of my most favorite things. So, how do we effectively utilize magick for social justice, especially on a large scale? We do so by following these simple rules.

1) First rule about witch club is don’t talk about witch club.

Though I fully support recent attempts to hex our president, the big mistake the movement makes is putting it on blast across social media. If you were following the story, you undoubtedly heard of the immediate counter measures taken by his supporters. In record time, prayer circles formed, special masses and church services were given, and opposing thoughts were all fired into the cosmos.

Yes the first lesson in magic we learn is to... be silent.
