So
you've read
all the books you can get your
hands on. Hopefully you've read the sections under Beginning Witchcraft
here. Now
what?
Well for
one
thing, being a Witch means that you lead,
you do not follow.
Advanced Witchcraft is less on lessons, and more on independent study.
Guidance in learning the basics is a must. Having a teacher, even if
it's a book or website, allows you to be shown the steps required.
Now that
you
know those basics, it's time to work
with more abstract ideas, such as using
modern myth in ritual.
The
thoughts
and ideas presented here, are what I
consider Old
School Witchcraft. This isn't the Fluff Bunny, feel good,
stuff you find everywhere. It's the serious study of a Craft.
There
are many
techniques for performing magick.
Some, are rituals which carry significance and symbolism.
Rituals
such
as Drawing
Down the Gods, and the Great Rite, take this form.
Others
take
the form of casting spells. Methods
such as candle magick, which requires you to know the process for dressing the candle
to your purpose.
All of
these
techniques can be learned and with
practice, mastered. The key to magick is Will and Intent.
