My bestfriend, her little sister, my little sister, and I recently found out that together we make up the four elements. Is this as a crazy a coincidence as we think it is? What should our next step be?

READ. Personally I think it is a coincidence. What has made you decide that you make up the 4 elements? And just what does that mean to you? Do you even know what the elements represent, besides air, earth, water and fire? Which direction is each related to?

Witchcraft is noting to play with, it is not a fantasy like Charmed or Harry Potter. It takes a lot of study and dedication. It will not give you any supernatural powers. It will not make you cool, it will bring ridicule and condemnation. Especially when your friends ask you do do silly spells and produce magic (as opposed to magick).Good luck be with you my young friend. Think long and hard before you choose this path.

Uh-huh. I think you've watched "The Craft" way too many times.

If you and your group of friends are really interested in witchcraft, your next step is to go to your local bookstore and read about it. Personally, I'm biased to anything written by Scott Cunningham. Thus, I recommend that your first read should be "The Truth About Witchcraft Today" by Scott Cunningham. It's short and to-the-point. That, and it's cheap.

As a matter of fact, I'll eliminate the effort of you driving to the bookstore to get it by giving you the link to buy it online.

I have studied Wicca extensively, as well as shamanism.

What you describe, dear one, sounds like right out of some silly TV drama. What you see on TV is so not even close to real life.

The Craft entails the use of magick, but it's no more exciting or visual than praying to Jesus is.

To learn anything about the Craft read books by Scott Cunningham or Caitlin Matthews.

Hope this helped!

It's a crazy coincidence that happened no doubt after you saw the video "The Craft". There is no such thing as witchcraft, just use your head.

Well, my partner is Wiccan -- religiously. He doesn't practice magic parse. However, may I suggest his Wiccan denomination to you:

http://www.correllian.org

Kind regards,

Reyn

PS I think that the very long post by the gentleman who has converted out of Wicca requires more response than I previously gave.

I (and Jonathan) view Wicca as a religion. I happen to be Christian, he happens to be Wiccan -- he attends Mass with me sometimes, I attend Circle with him sometimes.

Regardless of the statements of those prejudiced heavily to patriarchal religions (like the gentleman who responds below - he doesn't say it, but his statement on the true and the false makes it clear), there is almost certainly a history of goddess worship that predates the history of god worship. This is not my field and Jonathan is in Cali. visiting friends, and, oddly, attending a huge Pagan/Wiccan gathering -- however, if you are interested, I have linked to the religious tolerance.org site below to their article on goddess worship. I also am aware of scholars who concur with this, and my own rector, who holds the Ph.D. in theology says the same - for whatever that is worth.

I would answer the gentleman below me by saying there are two possibilities in the universe, either that there are superior/supreme powers, or that there aren't. I have seen little to no objective indication of deity, but I choose to believe in one, and others should choose or not choose according to their own wishes. Your experience, if indeed it occurred and is not made out of whole cloth, may have been bitter, my partner's experience (he is Correllian Trad.) has been sweet indeed. As for money, or lack thereof -- I know a lot of fundamentalist Christians who are very, very poor. I am not impressed by the physical effects of spiritual belief. We, by happenstance, by good luck, or by someone's divine intervention, are doing quite well thank you -- making more than double the average income for a family in the United States, with substantive investments, rental properties, and excellent, worthwhile jobs. Does that mean that one of our faith traditions (far-left Christian or Wiccan) is "the truth?" No, it means we work hard, are a stable couple, have the luxury of good educations, and are determined to succeed. Our faiths may help us on our journeys and comfort us in times of need -- perhaps our determination, or some of our good fortune come from god, or goddess -- but ultimately, we will never know; we can however revel in the faiths that we choose, without the unwelcome intervention of such as you.

And I would answer you by saying believe as you wish, love as you wish, be as you wish.

God bless you, and Blessed be --

From both of us.

Witchcraft is a religion of study and constant harrassment by people of the Bible. Are you sure you want to take this path?

Read and research and learn. Start with looking up and understanding the phrase "fluffy bunny".
