Even as a child, Tanja was captivated by magic. With a twig broom her grandmother gave her, she attempted her first flights, inspired by Bibi Blocksberg. She wrote down spells as if the world had been waiting for someone to remember them again. Yet life has a habit of swallowing dreams when we are expected to grow up. Imagination faded. Expectations took over. And Tanja first chose what looked “reasonable”.
Until the moment came when this reasonable life simply felt wrong. No spark, no depth. So she stepped off the predetermined path and followed what had been burning inside her all along. She returned to herbs and old stories. Studied phytotherapy, immersed herself in runic teachings and learned at the Witch School in Vienna. And she found her truth. Magic is not a fairytale. Magic is a way of feeling the world again.
Certified Phytotherapist and Rune Scholar
Today, Tanja is a certified phytotherapist, rune scholar and a witch who draws her magic from knowledge, experience and genuine devotion. On her platform Lichte Kräuterhexerey, she shares her passion for herbs, runes, witchcraft and the Old Faith. She combines traditional knowledge with a modern, clear practice and inspires people to rediscover their own path to magic. Tanja works grounded, precise and with an openness you feel instantly. With her, it is never about show or glitter. It is about real connection and the strength that rises when someone listens without judgment.

How Tanja from Lichte Kräuterhexerey works
Tanja is a herbal witch through and through. Earth under her fingernails, recipes in her head, plant knowledge that does not come from pretty Pinterest boards, but from study, practice and that deep feeling that every plant carries its own unique effect. Herbs are her tool, her compass and often the first step when someone seeks her help.
The second pillar of her work is the runes. No future predictions, no “In three weeks X will happen” theatrics. Tanja uses runes the way others use a sharp knife. Clear, direct, without detours. They show what was, what is and where a decision might lead. Not an oracle, but a tool for self reflection.
From this combination arises everything Tanja offers. Rune readings that range from quick impulses to deep decision work, rituals that are not built for aesthetics but to help energy move again, women’s circles where real conversations matter more than perfect words, and 1:1 sessions where Tanja listens, sorts and works with you instead of presenting you with pre-made answers. Those who come to her will not receive sugarcoated magic, but a witch who shares her knowledge and stays clear even when it gets uncomfortable.
1:1 Mentoring with Tanja
In the 1:1 mentoring, Tanja creates a space where you can breathe again. There is room for doubts, for questions, for the inner chaos that often gets pushed aside in everyday life. She listens, truly listens, and helps you sort whatever feels heavy or stuck. Step by step, clarity forms. No pressure, only honest guidance that helps you regain your footing. Some come because they sense a decision but cannot grasp it. Others because they feel they have lost sight of themselves. Tanja meets you exactly where you are, holds the threads until you can take them up again and walks with you until the ground beneath your feet becomes steadier.
