Yes of course it is!! Usually women are the more focal point of paganism etc coz it's a 'feminine' thing, but lots of my male friends are into to it too! Astrological maps are available on wikipedia. Casting spells is all to do with personal prefence and atrological positions, but try not to get to heavily into the 'spell' side of it, people often get paganism/wicca confused with 'Chaos magic'. If u wanna email me pls do at little_purple_daisy@hotmail.com - I can send you the wiccan calendar, and some charms etc you can try!
And by the way . . . . Fall Out Boy do rule!!!

There are Male Pagans(I am one).
There are Dianic Witches and almost all are female but I know little about them.
"Casting spells" is really nothing more than a ritualized form of prayer, so the answer to that would be yes.... but forget everything you have read about it in Harry Potter or seen on TV/Movies. No Sparkles, No special effects, and No you can't turn someone into a toad.
Maps and such? Look up the subject New age or Pagans where you are. Those resources could help.

Sure it is. What do you think a Wizard or a Warlock is!
Trouble is you have to be prepared to pay the consequences, which the vast majority of people who play with pagan spirituality have little idea about. I was interested in witchcraft for years, until it screwed my head up, and I need a real exorcism (yes I am for real). Breaking free from that evil was one of the best things that ever happened to me, whilst getting involved in Wicca was one of the worst. Try it, but you are likely to regret it sooner or later.

There are Christian witches. The Jews practice the Kabala (the High Magical Arts). “Old School” Metaphysics teach how to materialize things. You need to find if your interest lays in Paganism, the Occult, or in Magick, there is a big difference between them. Do a little research before choosing.

Yes, males can be pagans and/or Wiccans.
But if you're interested in it because of the spells, you're interested in it for the wrong reason.
You can do some reading on the 'Net (Wicca.com might be a good start, or ReligiousTolerance.org) about what Wicca and paganism is (and more importantly, what it ISN'T).

Yes, it is okay for boys to be pagan. Look for pagan groups in your area to learn how pagans worship. One can certainly learn to cast spells as wishes. You should be able to find astrology books in public libraries.

Yes it is possible to be a Male Witch,(Male Witch NOT Warlock). I find Wicca to be a very fulfilling path. For information on how to get started you can try:
www.witchschool.com
www.themagicalblend.com
Plus there are many more on the internet. You can do a Google search for websites.
Also check the "occult" or "New Age" section of your local library or bookstore.

Many boys are involved in Wicca and Paganism, but minority new religious and new age movement are more of a girly thing. I was into Wicca for a while, it's great.

It is absolutely ok for boys and young men to be wiccan/pagan. The most important thing is to do your research.
