Ok so for the 175th time in our chatroom someone has come in who says their grandmother was a witch and they want to be one too. So, let's examine that. My initial thought is, ok so what if your grandmother was a witch, is that the ONLY reason you want to be a witch? If your grandmother was a witch WHY do you not have her books and grimoire? We all know every witch has them. WHY has your grandmother not taught you? So here they come to us.
Ok I can be a trooper. The first lesson I am going to teach you about being a witch is that it's not television or movie crap. It's really rather mundane, though, in my opinion, the rituals are quite lovely. Secondly study is crucial. You are not going to learn this path on the internet or in chatrooms. There are thousands of paths out there. Everyone you ask EVERY SINGLE ONE will tell you something different. So start there. Study the different traditions and spiritual paths out there.
You're doing that? GREAT. You are going to have to have great focus, determination, dedication and discipline to do anything along this path. Study, in my opinion, for a year or even more before you begin practice. There could be simple, small things you might discover to do early on but PLEASE make sure you are well versed in grounding and protections. PLEASE.
Meditate. And I mean from day one. You have to know yourself inside and out. You have to ready yourself for workings, and that means be relaxed, focused and well prepared. Meditation gives you the opportunity to communicate with the energies around you that could give you important visions, through symbols, sounds and other images during meditation, that can help you along. Answer daunting questions. Show you your guides. There are books, cds, dvds and even youtube vids that can help you learn effective meditations. Start looking into them.
Ok that's a start. There is much more to learn. KEEP READING!
