Paganism & Wicca - What Is Skhur?

Skhur is  a North African word that means "witchcraft" or "sorcery." 


  • Skhur may refer to the art, the practitioner, or both, depending on regional accent and local use. 
  • Skhur is usually said to be driven by envy, jealously, resentment, and/or the desire to settle old scores, which may be viewed as a desire for justice depending on circumstances and views. 
  • Skhur is seldom started by strangers or at random. 
  • Instead, it's more of a passive-aggressive way to settle scores within a family or group. 
  • Skhur is usually started by neighbors or relatives seeking magical fulfillment covertly engaging a skilled magical practitioner with spell-casting and spirit-working abilities. 
  • These experts are also recruited to help people get rid of skhur and recover from its consequences.
