Interview with Juliet Diaz

1. Juliet, tell us a little about yourself and your spiritual practice.

I’m a healer, seer, bruja! A mother of 2 boys and the owner of November Sage apothecary and Tierra Sagrada School and Sisterhood. I’m indigenous Taino from the island of Cuba with a long line of Curanderos (healers) in my lineage. I’ve been able to see, hear and communicate with spirit, my ancestors and guides since I was very little which has seeded a mission within me to help others connect to their inner Witch/Magick. I’m also a huge spiritual activist, protecting our Mother Earth and all of her children.

My spiritual practice is my lifestyle, from the moment I wake to the moment I go to sleep. I practice my indigenous culture and craft. Mostly nature based.

2. We are very excited about your recent book release “Witchery, Embrace the Witch within.” Can you shed some light on what your readers have to look forward to when purchasing your book?

I’m extremely grateful for this book! Witchery – Embrace the Witch within isn’t a book that just hands over spells, it’s a companion that helps you recognize and become the Magick first. Magick isn’t like the magic on TV, it is a power within us all that we are all capable of honing, but only IF WE DO THE WORK. It takes you on a journey of healing, self-love, inner truth, and MAGICKAL ROOT WORK before getting into the spells and magickal workings. Why? Because your Magick will not work or will not work at its fullest potential if you don’t work on FINDING YOUR TRUTH. Your truth will align you with inner Magick, a power that will change your life in ways you have always desired. This book teaches the foundations of Magick, of how it actually works, teaches you to create your own craft/practice, create your own spells with confidence, and embody the Witch in all her glory. Now, if you are serious about embodying the Witch, it’s time to embrace the Witch within.

3. We understand that you own two businesses in the spiritual and magickal communities, “November Sage and The School or Witchery.” What led you to open your business and how do you feel it has shaped you as a person and in your practice?

Well, making remedies, natural goods, sacred medicine, magical workings is part of my family lifestyle since my ancestors. It was always natural to me since its imbedded in my bones. I went through life like anyone else, with questions, worry, self-doubt and fear. I always felt it, sensed it, heard it, that my purpose was to be a healer, to wake the truth within others, but I didn’t acknowledge this truth until the universe knocked me on my ass and kept blocking me until I finally surrendered and allowed myself to be still, and find myself right where I was. My calling needed to be heard and I listened. And so I walked until my feet bled. And here I am, aligned with purpose, a fully embodied Witch. I started November Sage as a way to reach the world with my sacred medicine, and the school to help awaken the power that lives within you.

4. What is your opinion on witchcraft and witches in the modern era?

I’m over the moon with the rise of the Witches to be honest. Lots of people ask me this and are surprised when I don’t reply with anger or aggravation. See, the way I see it is, those that are saying they are witches just because it’s “in” will fall off. Only those truly devoted to the lifestyle will stay, those who are truly devoted to the craft. Especially those shops that opened because of the trend and to make a quick buck, it is A LOT of work to run a witchcraft/spiritual business and if your life is not 100% aligned with your practice or craft, things will just not work for you. I’m not worried about the sudden rise in interest. Instead I’m hopeful it will wake up many beautiful souls to their truth.

5. How do you feel witchcraft has empowered you as a woman?

Witchcraft is the craft of oneself. It is knowing who you are and who you aren’t. It involves healing, self-love, devotion, connection, facing your shadows and embracing who you are, your truth. So in turn, it empowers because it helped me find myself, my purpose, and has helped me live an authentic life each and every day.
