Sea witches were most often portrayed as magical, malevolent spirits. Their perceived magical influence over the sea and tides was believed to have come from their worship, and sacred bond with, the moon. Lunar goddesses all over the world were worshiped in triple aspects: virgin, mother and crone, representing the three phases of monthly lunar cycle. Sea witches were believed to twist their lunar sorcery into magic strings, which were sold to superstitious mariners to help them control the elements. They were also believed to lure seafaring men to their death with a vast array of powerful magic, drawn from the brine of the sea.
