Mid Winter Magic

            "A public apology to those accused of witchcraft between the 16th and 18th Centuries would send a powerful symbolic signal, campaigners have said.
They said a statement from the Scottish government would help to right a terrible wrong from Scotland's past".

Witch hunts took place in many countries during that period, but academics say Scotland's execution rate was five times the European average. (Not surprising the Romans had to build a wall when they were here).

Supposedly it would send an important message to countries where witch hunts still take place today.

The Witches of Scotland campaign wants Nicola Sturgeon to make a statement on International Women's Day on 8 March.

Update 27 January 2022 — The Catalan regional parliament has formally pardoned hundreds of women executed for witchcraft between the 15th and 18th centuries.
