white witches

Good magic practitioners

White witches practice magic intended for benevolent purposes—healing, protection, blessing—as opposed to black witches who supposedly work harm.

The term appears in folklore, fantasy fiction, and modern paganism.

A white witch might cast spells for good fortune or ward off evil: She considered herself a white witch, using herbs and charms to help her neighbors.
