Channeling is a power of the witches to draw power from Nature or an element to boost their magic. This allows users to harness energies in their surroundings to perform greater magical feats, and cast stronger spells beyond that which one is usually able to accomplish solely with their own magic. The energy drawn to empower a witch can come from numerous things such as other witches, the elements, and celestial events.
