HI everione Im starting whit magic too I've read a lot of book about it.. -but after that what you sugest to be next.. to do?

There is several different types of Magick out there. You need one that is who you are. There is Wicca, Pagan, Druid, and Shaman witchcraft but it isn't limited to that only. There is even Christain witchcraft (I know it sounds impossible but it is true--kinda), you need to really define who you are and what you believe to be true of the universe and God/s as a whole. Reading is a great place to start. Also searching the internet for different types of witchcraft is helpful.


Charon, pure white magic like Wicca a good book would be: The Wicca Handbook by Eileen Holland. She follows an Egyptain pantheon but the book is great for beginners and those just starting out. Also anything by Silver RavenWolf would help. Both good writers on top of it. :D

anyone wishing to get into the craft should read read read! if you don't have a mentor or a group that you can learn from, you must read all you can before trying to do spells or ritual. you must first learn to control yourself before trying to control a ritual or spell. so please learn meditation, centering and grounding FIRST. there are dozens of sites on the net to look up and many people out there to teach you. if you want you can go to my yahoo profile, there is a link for a site there. i'm not perfect but i am an ordained wiccan minister and i have been a witch for 20+ yrs. i am hereditary so i have my training both from relatives and books too. so please don't hesitate to ask someone if you don't understand something you are reading. many blessings to you

I'm curious about your reference to Christian witchcraft. Where may I learn more about it? Can one be a Christian and a witch at the same time? If that is possible, then there's perhaps hope for me.

Thanks!

This is up for debate, honestly. Some people believe that it isn't possible because Paganism is the opposite of Christainity. So when I say this keep that in mind. HOWEVER:

Belief is the MOST important thing in any religion, especially in crafting. Because it is your belief in yourself and the things around you to happen the way you want them to that is going to be how it happens. Once you have that belief, then do your ritual. Rituals play between both Christainity and Paganism (and pretty much every other religion). Most are just not as obvious as Pagan witchcraft (I'm lumping Wicca/Druid in here because they are branchs of Paganism).

Most people need to remember that crafting itself is about the ritual NOT who you call upon during that ritual. I personally don't call on any God/desses during spell work. And any ritual is fine.

I know a Christain woman at work who walks her properity before leaving quoting Psalms91.

Psalm 91
1 He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High
      will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. [a]

2 I will say [b] of the LORD, "He is my refuge and my fortress,
      my God, in whom I trust."

3 Surely he will save you from the fowler's snare
      and from the deadly pestilence.

4 He will cover you with his feathers,
      and under his wings you will find refuge;
      his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.

5 You will not fear the terror of night,
      nor the arrow that flies by day,

6 nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness,
      nor the plague that destroys at midday.

7 A thousand may fall at your side,
      ten thousand at your right hand,
      but it will not come near you.

8 You will only observe with your eyes
      and see the punishment of the wicked.

9 If you make the Most High your dwelling—
      even the LORD, who is my refuge-

10 then no harm will befall you,
      no disaster will come near your tent.

11 For he will command his angels concerning you
      to guard you in all your ways;

12 they will lift you up in their hands,
      so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.

13 You will tread upon the lion and the cobra;
      you will trample the great lion and the serpent.

14 "Because he loves me," says the LORD, "I will rescue him;
      I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name.

15 He will call upon me, and I will answer him;
      I will be with him in trouble,
      I will deliver him and honor him.

16 With long life will I satisfy him

That is a protect "spell" that is based in Christainity. There are spell books that will help you with spells if you wish to craft, but something for Christain Witchcraft there isn't one because technically it doesn't exist.

Look hard into your belief system and learn your bible you should be able to do a mix if you choose to. BUT it goes against what is taught in the bible itself.
