Where do they sell magical items?(do you believe in...?

Question

Like magic books
wands etc

DO you believe in magic

Answer 1

Yes,

Rituals are just like prayers.... Though done actively.

Answer 2

well to start any person that truly believes in Magick will spell it with a 'K' to depict the diffrence between Magick and Magic (Magic being that which a stage show magician will perform).

Magickal items are sold for a reason some to make money some to advance and help people in their Magickal workings, it is not always clear why but they do.

Yes, I do believe in magick but I believe in a many great things that this world has to offer. Just like those magickal items people use them because of their beliefs in what they can do what properties each item holds.

Everyone has there own choice in beliefs which is what makes the world such a great place.

So really it all depends on the person selling the items, but if you wish to explore me into that I would suggest reading some information about Magickal items.

Blessed be

Depending on what you want to purchase - check the internet, and the yellow pages under New Age and Occult.

As for a Wand - I personally think that is an item that should be made by the user. There are differing opinions as to whether or not to cut a branch from the tree in question (after speaking with the tree and asking for the gift), or to take a branch that is on the ground and still thanking the tree.

A wand is simply a tool for focus. It can be as elaborate or simple as the user wishes.

As far as a Magick book - Well, you probably are not going to find a Book of Shadows with rituals (beyond simple basic ideas for them) for sale as rituals are personal things. You can find blank books for writing your own in for sale, but you won't find old ones with personal rituals for sale.

Start out with books that you can find at Barnes and Noble such as Scott Cunningham's - Wicca for the Solitary Practitioner, and Starhawk's - The Spiral Dance, and the infamous Raymond Buckland's - Complete Book of Witchcraft (otherwise known as Uncle Bucky's Big Blue Book). Those will get you started.

Answer 4

To Squishy,

Geoffrey Chaucer used the word Magick in his Canterbury Tales in 1400....are you stating that Crowley was alive 700 years ago to tell Chaucer to use the spelling. If you read any of the books entailing Magick from the time of middle and Old English, you would not make such misleading answers or suppositions as both Magick and Majik are used profusely.

Oh yes, Items are not Magick, until they are made tools of Magick. If a tool can not be made it can be purchased without prejudice.

Answer 5

You can buy items to represent certain elements of magick in a lot of places, including at your local bookstore. Since magick is a personal thing I would stay well clear of mass-market items (including almost anything published by Llewellyn, for example).

Most urban areas have multiple new age or pagan shops. This will offer you some level of genuinity but you still want to be careful and judge the atmosphere for yourself.

And yes, I do believe in it, it's as prevelant and important as air.

Blessings

Answer 6

You'll find magical items on the web, but they aren't magical until you cast a spell.
But no I don't believe in magic, I haven't tried.

Answer 7

Well what "kind" of magic?....you should try typing in "magic books" in your browser and it will show you different links to libraries or on-line book stores....thats all i can think about....

Oh and yeah i believe in "magic"...but not the one with magic tricks though!!!

Answer 8

Second poster: WRONG.

For the love of God, learn why Crowley started using the K.
