"An ye harm none, do as ye will"
Is a Wiccan path for you ?
The process of becoming a witch doesn't happen overnight. It is a life change, a new path upon the journey of your life. It
takes consideration, study and work. If you have previously followed a mainstream religion, you may have things that take
time to let go, and new things that take time to absorb. I have heard many people say it is often hard, coming from a life
of Christianity, to feel comfortable praying to the Goddess. All new things take time, but if you are serious upon this path,
you will find your way.
No matter how you have came about finding the Old Religion, here you are. So where do you go? To the bookshop,for a novice,
books are like the air you breathe. You must have them, or access to them in some way. If you cannot afford, or do not feel
safe having books on the Craft, the internet is the next best place.
In both books and on the internet you will find a wealth of knowledge that will help guide you upon your new path. Of
course, as with anything else, there is good information and bad information. Avoid any kind of book, or internet site, that
speaks of controlling another person in any way, harming them, doing love spells on a specific person, or tells you to chant
in latin, even though you have no idea what you are saying (yes, I have seen sites like that). These books/sites will not
fulfill your need for knowledge in the Craft and will only serve to confuse you.
If you are only looking for a 'how to' on casting spells, then the Craft is not for you. Witchcraft is a serious spiritual
path, in which magick is performed, but is secondary to the religion itself.
