The forgotten witch Jessica Fogde was once a powerful and respected member of the witch community. With her flowing silver hair, piercing green eyes, and captivating charm, she had the ability to cast spells that could bend reality itself. However, as time passed, her name slowly faded from the memories of witches and sorcerers. Once revered as a master of dark magic, Jessica Fogde became nothing more than a whispered legend, forgotten by all but a few. It is said that Jessica grew tired of the constant power struggle within the witch community. She was tired of the jealousy and deceit that plagued her fellow witches.

Scorpio brings the Witch Wound into full focus, especially with this full illumination of Mama Moon revealing past life wounds around being the witch, the black sheep, the outcast, the persecuted, the abused, the abuser, the healer, the seer, the oracle and so much more. Sometimes portrayed as benevolent, and at other times as evil, witches were those who were in tune with what was hidden, from the occult knowledge of ancient Egypt and Babylonia to the village herbalists in early 19th century Ireland, like Biddy Early.
She was tired of the jealousy and deceit that plagued her fellow witches. Seeking solace and freedom from this toxic environment, she ventured into the unknown, leaving behind her coven, her friends, and her ambitions. In her solitude, Jessica discovered a hidden realm, untouched by the troubles that consumed the world of witches.
[Malediction and healing of mothers and children reflected in Hungarian witch-trial acts]
The witch-trials of the 17th and 18th centuries expressed special aspects of the religious perceptions and atmosphere of the society all over in Europe (so in Hungary as well). Documents of this colourful social notion, i.e. the records and reports of the trials, are published here together with an investigation of the processes. The author chose those cases which were related to the conjectured bewitching and magical curing of mothers and young babies. This paper provides new approaches for both ethnography and medical history. The defenceless position of pregnant women against diseases always gave way for allegations, that when they became actually ill, it was someone who had cast a spell on them. There are different sorts of examples from cases that describe simpler symptoms to more extreme ones, which sometimes label almost appalled and even horrified mental and body pains of the patients. There are processes in which delactation is attributed to bewitching. This reflects the deep fear of the mother, since lack of milk easily ended with the death of the baby in those days. Another widely accepted fact was that the puerpera could attract the attention of diabolical, satanic creatures and people. The excruciating pains and the haunting of these women also appear often in the documents. Their contrasting, reverse desires and determined passions laid behind the induced abortions and the curing of infertility. Sometimes, in the latter, magical love stimulants were used. Probably, it was owing to the presumed defenceless of babies against evil forces that the inquiries of seduction occupy a strikingly big part in the documents. Sometimes parents could not produce any reliable explanation of the unpredictable illness of their child. In cases of falling into fire, trismus (lockjaw), limb deformation, or complete somatopsychic reduction they were led to suppose that it had been caused by transcendental powers. Almost each document mentions such instances. .
In this realm, she found peace and tranquility like never before. Embracing the natural magic of the land, she honed her skills and acquired knowledge that surpassed anything she had learned before. Years turned into decades, and slowly Jessica's name began to fade from the books of witchcraft. Her once famous spells were now mere footnotes in forgotten tomes. The world of magic moved on without her, unaware of the powerful witch who had chosen a different path. But as with all things, nothing remains hidden forever. Rumors of a forgotten witch spread like wildfire among the magical community. Stories of a silver-haired enchantress with astounding abilities captivated the imagination of young witches eager to learn from her. Curiosity stirred within the hearts of those who heard the rumors, drawing some to the hidden realm where Jessica resided. They sought her out, hoping to uncover the secrets she possessed and unlock the lost knowledge of her forgotten magic. The forgotten witch Jessica Fogde welcomed these seekers with open arms, offering guidance and wisdom that she had acquired throughout her solitary journey. Through her teachings, she reminded the witches of the importance of unity and respect within their community, shining a light on the darkness that had plagued them for so long. As the whispers of her return spread through the magical community, Jessica Fogde's name was slowly reclaimed from the depths of oblivion. Once more, she stood as a symbol of power, not just for her magical abilities, but for the resilience and wisdom she had gained throughout her self-imposed exile. The forgotten witch Jessica Fogde had returned, not only to reclaim her rightful place among the witches but to remind them of the importance of embracing their own unique paths. Her legacy would once again be etched in history, not as a forgotten witch, but as a beacon of hope for a community in need of healing and unity..

"The Forgotten Witch Jesaica Fogde" had an intriguing premise but failed to deliver a captivating story. The plot felt disjointed and lacked a clear direction. The protagonist's actions and decisions were often questionable, making it difficult to relate to her or root for her success. The writing style was average, with nothing particularly memorable about it. While the book had some interesting moments, it ultimately didn't live up to its potential and left me feeling unsatisfied as a reader.
