So I’ve been in a horrible slump when it comes to my practice and I’ve been feeling really disconnected for some time.

So instead of trying to force the feeling back, I started thinking about how my favorite characters would connect to witchcraft in general.

And that’s how I ended up drawing the Main 6 as different types of witches and sharing my reasoning behind the choices I made.

1: Twilight Sparkle-

Simple, sweet, and practical

I imagine her being an Eclectic Witch with something of a lean toward Cosmic Magic. Of course, she would be happy to learn as much as she can and even picking up different spells from her friends along the way.

2: Fluttershy-

She would definitely be a Green Witch

Possibly leaning more into Druidry

Absolutely working with animal spirits and Angel Bunny would be her familiar.

I’m super proud of her butterfly shaped veil, honestly.

3: AppleJack-

Incredibly subtle for her but she would be an Ancestral Witch as well as a Hestia Devotee.

I think the primary ancestor that she would work with would be her late father, since she wears his hat.

As a bonus, I imagine Granny Smith is the one who sews on the Witch Runes onto everyone’s clothes

4: Rainbow Dash-

I definitely think she’s a Gym Witch

Hardcore Hermes Devotee

Tank became her familiar in a moment of Hermes being funny and you can’t convince me otherwise.

I particularly love the tattoo of “Hermes Mechaniotes” which is his Trickster Epethet!

5: Pinkie Pie-

Just full Lokean Kitchen Witch!

I wanted her to have a similar vibe to a Decora style aesthetic

And Pinkie is the type to not decide what to use to venerate so she just grabs as much as possible to wear.

As well as wearing fish net stockings because it’s funny and Loki invented the net.

(The Jormangandr apron is my favorite part of her whole stupid outfit)

6: Rarity-

And finally, my favorite of the Main 6

She is a Crystal/Glamour Witch who works with Venus and Hathor!

I see her using her talent for crystals, not only for her tailored outfits, but to venerate her goddesses.

She infuses the gems she sews in with glamour spells to fit the customers (and herself)

I had so much fun drawing all of them, and I hope you all enjoyed my dumb post here. 😅

Have you ever thought of what kind of witches your favorite characters would be?

Do you agree with my reasoning or do you have another idea of what kinds of witches the Main 6 would be?

Regardless of everything, I’m definitely out of my slump now!
