There is a certain stigma around witchcraft. Saying you're a practicing witch may result in strange looks and questions about worshipping satan. The craft is unique to each individual and the rituals you create. One day the stigma will change and people will realise it's not as outlandish as cheesy horror flicks would have them believe. Until then... Blessed be.

The first thing that comes to mind when thinking of Herbology is screeching mandrakes and fuzzy pink earmuffs. The second though, is shelves loaded with mysterious jars of plant matter, all waiting to be plucked from the shelf by a witch or wizard.
Something you might find in a witch's apothecary is a collection of magical herbs. Imagine opening a beautiful leather bound book to find pressed stems of herbs and flowers with their names inscribed in ink.
