When I say this is a list of aesthetic witchy nails, I mean the nail art below isn’t about literal illustrations of brooms or witches painted on your nails. For that style, you can check out my Magical Halloween Nails and Cute Halloween Nail Ideas.
The nail ideas below, however, are aesthetic combinations of shapes and colors that evoke a powerful witchy vibe through the manicure.
These designs are meant for adult women who love the symbolism of transformation – the mysterious, dark, purple, and celestial tones that capture the essence of witchy aesthetics – and who want to express that energy through their nail art.

Snake Designs for Witchy Nails
When it comes to choosing nail art that looks witchy but not in a way that resembles Halloween (like witch hat designs), snakes are one of the best options.
This highly symbolic animal has been associated with witchcraft for centuries, from its deep meaning of transformation to its strong mark in pop culture after being chosen as the emblem of Slytherin House in the Harry Potter series.

Celestial Aesthetic Nails
The mysteries of the cosmos, astrology, tarot, and the celestial bodies are part of the witchy aura and universe.
Celestial nail art captures that ethereal magic perfectly, with designs that mirror the night sky with stars, moons, and constellations that reflect your inner mystic.
