TIPS FOR BEGINNERS
It's very important to do a lot of research on things you want to practice. There are so many different types of magic, spells and witches. It's best to try to do a lot of research and figure out what you want to do. You don't have to learn everything, most witches don't. It's like going to school, some people have a major and minors and electives. I like to learn and try things out as the years go on. But I would say that my major or majors, is lunar magic and nature. Like herbs and crystals. And minors in water and divination. While an elective is candles. You also don't have to be one type of witch, you can do whatever you want.

SOME BASICS
How magic works: "magic is all about energy manipulation. a witch masters the art of pushing and pulling energy in order to be successful in their practice. by communicating with the universe using tools, ingredients, and intentions. A key component of witchcraft is recognizing that we share the world. We all have our own strengths, weaknesses, hopes, and dreams. It's essential to understand the functions of magic, it only works when you open your heart to the universe and allow yourself to connect with it. "
The difference between magic and magick: The word "magick" was created by Aleister Crowley, the founder and occultist of the Thelema religion. He added the "K" to distinguish his craft from illusionists and magicians since he did not perform "tricks"
The difference between rituals and spells: While a ritual can have a spell attached to it, rituals are usually events that celebrate, honor, or are performed as a rite of passage. Rituals are repeated annually, monthly, or lunarly. and can be performed by an individual or in a group. A spell is about directing energy toward a specific goal, helping to manifest a specific outcome.
