Is Astrology Witchcraft? The Magician Card Says Yes | Astrology Ride of the Day

An affirmation, a mantra, a specific direction of stirring the gumbo pot — Lindy walks through how ordinary moments become energy manipulation without anyone calling it magic. Even Tesla gets pulled into it. Then the conversation turns to astrology itself, and something clicks live on air — the Magician tarot card, ruled by Mercury, is the card of manipulating the four elements. And Mercury happens to be Paul's chart ruler. Lindy doesn't hesitate: astrologers count as witches in pagan circles, full stop. Know thyself. Balance your energy.

Takeaways

1. Affirmations and mantras qualify as energy manipulation, even when the person saying them wouldn't call themselves a witch.
2. Cooking with intention counts too — Lindy stirs gumbo counterclockwise to remove negative energy, clockwise to add positive energy.
3. Even Tesla's documented rituals get reframed here as a form of energy manipulation, whether he'd have called it that or not.
4. Paul connects the Magician tarot card — ruled by Mercury, his own chart ruler — to the idea of manipulating the four elements.
5. Lindy confirms without hesitation: astrologers count as witches in pagan circles, since reading the stars to predict outcomes is its own kind of magical skill.
