added: “Witchcraft is a pagan practice, Ireland is pagan in history. There are our gods and deities written in paganism. The higher energy, it still knows you’re talking to it.

“It’s like a personal religion of no boundaries, you know – intention. I think it’s the original religion.

“So it’s about stopping segregatio­n

from each other. I’m not into anything except for witchcraft.

“But Satanism is a religion of free will and forgivenes­s and personal freedom. It’s a very kind belief system.

“It’s just the world has tainted it, I think we’re made to fear the less negative things.”

The singer admitted they do sigil magic which is “like symbol magic”.

They added: “You write a manifestat­ion or a poem, and get rid of the

repeating letters and numbers and you’re left with letters and make a symbol out of that. There are already ancient sigils that have been passed down. I love making my own. Witchcraft is about the power of intention.

“It’s about focusing your energy on something. For me it’s loads of arts and crafts, building things or creating.

“That’s what gives it more power

when you create something.”

Bambie said growing up identifyin­g as nonbinary in Macroom was challengin­g, adding: “I was a very depressed child.

“I was on a lot of antidepres­sants from a very young age, so I was very much removed from myself for a long time. The trained ballet dancer continued: “My gender journey is still ongoing.

“One of my best friends is a trans man in London, I found my community and opened up a lot to him and realised I was living a lie.

“I’ve a long history of dark things – but only bright things in the future.”
