one or two good books - here are some of my faves:
practical magic - nikki van de car
green witch - arin murphy-hiscock
wiccapedia - shawn robbins
the book of tarot - danielle noel
i recommend buying a basic “chakra healing” set since they have crystals for a variety of purposes!
if you only have enough for one crystal, clear quartz is a great all-purpose stone
a tarot deck / palmistry book / pendulum
some form of divination is always good!
the rider-waite deck is the go-to tarot deck for anyone who’s not sure of what to get
you should probably have some already in your cabinets! these can be used in spells and charms.
or you can research some herbs based on the kinds of effects you want to produce (ie. rosemary for mental clarity)
these are pretty essential for me. i always reach for them in spells!
again, if you can’t purchase all colours, go for one that fits the kind of effect you want!
some form of aromatherapy
incense, candles, and essential oils are always nice! you can use them in spells or simply use them if you need an extra boost of energy
salt / sage / smudge stick / etc.
i do stress this! any form of purification is quite necessary in working with energy
remember: you do not need any of these items to practice witchcraft!! these are only what i wished i could start out with ~ blessings!
