No. I'm not a witch, but I do work with herbs and practice some variation of earth magick. I follow my own path, which is ever changing. I like to consider myself a mystic because witch, wiccan, whatever..is too limiting. I work with crystals too.
I am odd, I suppose, but we all are in some way. I was born into and raised in a family of bizarre people so I suppose I get it honest.
I'm not into the "I'm a 3rd generation witch, twice removed, on my 2nd cousin's side of the family" sort of magick because long ago mostly everyone worked herb/root healing/magick and it's no big deal. Some of my friends know I work with these things and some don't.
Being fascinated with mystical/mysterious things like those portrayed in Harry Potter doesn't have anything to do with being gay (or straight). One of my favorite quotes is by Albert Einstein. "The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and all science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead: his eyes are closed."
