 I have a post for this!

But below are some other things to think about as well!

Some other questions include: 

Do you want to practice secular witchcraft or witchcraft as part of a religion? If you want to practice witchcraft as part of a religion, you’ll also have to do research on that religion. Remember though that some religions and spiritualities are closed and/or from closed cultures. Those ones are off limits, generally.

Do you want to practice together, with others, or separately? Remember, it is okay to not want to practice the same things or even practice the same way. One thing I like about witchcraft is that it can be very personal.

There are also a lot of books out on the market and not all of them are good or even okay. I generally recommend staying away from authors like Silver Ravenwolf who bash Christianity, give historically inaccurate information, talk about what “real witches do,” use witchcraft as a synonym for Wicca, say witchcraft is a religion, doesn’t cite sources, is racist, ablist, cisist, etc. Mainly they are huge red, blinking, caution signs. Sometimes, and I mean sometimes you can find something that is worth something in books like that, but mostly it is not worth the time to pick apart to find them.

The above goes same for any articles, blogs, videos, podcasts, etc that you may read, watch, or listen to.

Get a feel for how spells work and feel then experiment with them. Conduct scientific experiments, or as best as possible. Make your own associations with things and try those out. Question and use your critical thinking skills.

Also, I recommend starting out with protection spellwork, wards, boundaries, etc. And always, ALWAYS, double check herbs if you are going to use them. Make sure they aren’t poisonous or harmful. Some herbs are only harmful to those who are pregnant. Some herbs are only harmful when taken in copious amounts. ALWAYS double check.
