Let’s Talk About When Willow’s Eyes Turn Green
I have heard some people question why Willow has her green eyes in certain scenes versus others. So let’s think about this for a minute by taking in the big magic scenes with her green eyes and compare them to the ones without the green eyes.
————————
The scenes with green eyes:
- Willow getting angry after Amity’s bullying sets her off and makes her sick of Abomination magic (I Was a Teenage Abomination)
- Willow trying to make a path for Luz to escape from getting dissected (I Was a Teenage Abomination)
- Willow trying to protect herself and Gus and make their way to Luz (Really Small Problems)
- Willow using her powers in front of Amity while telling her she doesn’t need her protection and wants her to see who she really is (Labyrinth Runners)
- Willow using her powers to attack Kikimora in an attempt to free Luz, who was disguised as Hunter at the time (Clouds on the Horizon)
- Willow expressing her stress and anger towards Boscha (For the Future)
- Willow breaking down emotionally while attempting to use her magic (For the Future)
The vast majority of these involve Willow experiencing an intense emotion that is tied to her personal character and character growth, mainly her perception of her being weak.
————————
The scenes without green eyes:
- Willow fighting the bounty hunters (Hooty’s Moving Hassle)
- Willow fighting the Basilisk (The First Day)
- Willow playing in the Grugby game (Wing it Like Witches)
- Willow fighting against Lilith (Agony of a Witch)
- Willow playing in the Flyer Derby game (Any Sport in a Storm)
- Willow protecting the Emerald Entrails against Darius (Any Sport in a Storm)
- Willow fighting against an army of Coven Scouts and an Abomaton with Hexside students (Labyrinth Runners)
- Willow fighting against Belos (King’s Tide)
- Willow fighting against possessed Hunter (Thanks to Them)
————————
The vast majority of these are traditional fight scenes against a threatening antagonist.
Most shows use glowing eyes as a power up for scenes that resemble the latter, but TOH decides to use Willow’s glowing eyes as a trigger from an internal conflict rather than an external conflict.
Next time you question “why does/doesn’t Willow have her glowing green eyes?”, ask yourself what the threat towards Willow is. Is it an evil villain, or is it something personal to her? That should answer your question.

I have a theory about how Magic works in The Owl House!
So, we know that for witches, magic comes from their vile sacks, but the Boiling isles have their own magic that can be canalized with Glyphs, the Human realm either has no magic or an abismally low quantity of magic, since Luz's glyphs have only enough magic to consume themselves like when they are used normally.
But why do Witches and Demons have magic of their own? We saw Lilith using magic normally in the Human realm, so she must have brought her own magic with her.
Well, I propose that magic has a cycle, like how water does. Magic is "grown" or created by the Boiling isles, Witches consume and eat food grown by this enviroment, so the magic from the isles gets digested and stored in the vile sack. When a witch casts a spell, that magic used is "broken" and absorbed by the enviroment, which then passes to the food and so on
If I had to give a guess as to why magic exists, I'd say it may be a result of the way the Titan's body decomposes, perhaps since their own blood has magic power, Magic is the equivalent of the energy or nutrients that carry the cells of the Titan's bodies, and when they die, their cells break down, the same way in the real world bodies are decomposed by microbes so the nutrients can be passed to the dirt and to the plants so the energy keeps flowing
