these questions are mostly random. I'm low on mony so it hard to by books and there is no real good libraries. I'm a bit bad at grammer but worst at spelling. I done thouse question quickly so there are English erra. I couldn't spell check it throught the broser because it wasn't working. The reason I ask wicca/pagan questions because my religion is close to it. I hate Hiliar(sp?) that why I ask. I like Jews, good friends. I read everything and compare everything I know.

That is a lot of questions... ;)
1) what is a pagan? A pagan is a believer in nonAbrahamic (Judaism, Christianity, Islam) or (perhaps) other major faith traditions (Buddhists, or other major established spiritual traditions). It is not a religion, but an umbrella term for many belief systems. Wiccans are one sort of neo-pagan. Druids are another. Dianic witches are another. Asatru is another. And that is not all. Wicca, though it has older roots, really dates back to the 1930s-1950s as an origin date, depending on what events one counts; Gerald Gardner revealed and defined Wicca as an oath bound initiatory mystery religion. Even within Wicca there is a lot of diversity of groups, practices, beliefs.
2) Covens: joining one is a serious commitment, kind of similar to marriage. You do not need one to be a pagan or even a Wiccan, and certainly not as a study group.
3) Scott Cunningham is a good author, very accessible. Look for Wicca: A Solitary Companion, and Living Wicca.
4) Spellwork without understanding the basics is not a good idea. Wait, and read, and learn. Aside from paganism, study metaphor, and perception, and intent.
5) Honoring the seasons and the cycles of harvest and the earth are common in many flavors of neopaganism. In the northern hemisphere, the day is getting shorter, the earth cooler, and several harvests are already in. Some of us celebrate New years on Oct 31/Nov 1.
6) Nice. Do you meditate? It can not only relax you but give you mental focus which is useful in Craft and in life for that matter.
7) Hitler was very evil. I do not hate him; I do dispise him, and hate Nazism. he was not a pagan at all, though he was obcessed with the occult; he was a bad Christian, not representative of that faith.
8) Dreamwork can be a fun, helpful practice. See links below.
9) I am not a Wiccan, I am a different kind of neopagan with several decades experience. I do sometimes attend festival or ritual or workshops with Wiccans, and am better-than-average familiar with several Wiccan traditions. The polarity which many Wiccans insist is fundamental to, well, everything, is not how I perceive existence. But it can be a fine religion, with reasonable and strong ethics, good community, etc. If that is your Path, it can be a good one.
10) Listen (and read) more than you speak; a remarkable number of people come to these traditions as tourists, and try to start teaching or making definitive statements before they really know more than superficial or personal experiences. ;)

1) what is pagan(or what it name) belive in? it the one befor christanity.
---Pagan simply means "Country dweller" or "Rustic".
Pagan beliefs vary widely depending on the individual you talk to. Go to Yahoo.com and type "Paganism" into the Search engine.
2)How to find a coven to join or lean about.
---- http://www.witchvox.com
You do not need a coven though. You can be a solitary practioner. Its your choice.
3)What are some good wicca books.
----There are many sources out there. Go to Amazon.com to find a list of good ones, or even WitchVox.com .
http://www.llewellyn.com/ is a good soruce too.
4)Do anyone know any searching spells like for object or people.
----I don't. But spells/prayers work best if YOU create them. Use whatever you feel is neccessary to help aid your Crafting.
5) what are some belifes comapare to fall/october or/and spring.
----October is a time for Samhain (Halloween). It represents the death of the sun until it will be reborn again around Dec. 20-27th. Look it up on Yahoo.com .
6)Do you know any simple mental spells. i know a head ack one to get rid of a head ack but i only can do it to my self.
---Take Tylenol, Iburprofen, etc. If spells help you then, then by all means, do what you need to do, but I usually just take a few Tylenol or Ibuprofen and meditate.
7)who hate Hiliar(that guy from wwll who kill a lot of jews)
---Hitler was a great speaker, but he was also a terrible person who committed some of the worst atrocities ever witnessed with human eyes.
8)Do any one know any dream or memory spells.
---Create a dream journal and record your dreams. Look up dream dicitionaries to help you begin to understand what they mean, or simply apply what happened in your dream in a metaphorical sense to what is happening in your life currently. **Remember...not all dreams have meaning.
9)What do you think about wicca or how's life as a wiccan?
---I am not Wiccan, I am Pagan. Pagan is a broad term that holds other religions underneath it such as Hindusim, Buddhism, and Wicca. I think the Pagan Path is beautiful and I am so glad I am walking it!
Blessed Be

1) Pagan refers to any number of religions that are not one of the monotheistic Big 3. May be theistic or atheistic. Usually refers to a spiritual path involving reverence for nature and celebration of life. Wicca is one of these paths, but not the only one.
2) www.witchvox.com although I prefer solitary. My spirituality is exceedingly personal and is best addressed by only me.
3) Beats me.
4) Called scrying, very difficult, I have never been convinced by results that it actually works.
5) Great website for you on the seasonal holidays: http://www.asiya.org/sabbats/index.html
6) Of course it only works on you. Spells are for the caster. They are all mental.
7) Um he's dead, you know?
8) Yes, takes training.
9) I think wicca is a bit too structured for my taste. This is why I'm a generic pagan.
10) It's a very nice religion which I highly respect but don't follow.

when i say this please don't take it the wrong way.
you say that you hate Hitler.
i am a Jew and a Wiccan. three quarters of my family were destroyed because of Hitler. i still don't hate him- i pity him and really don't like him- but i don't hate him.
Wicca is a spiritually elite lifestyle that awakens you to true meaning and creational understanding. people who hate are not people who are meant for Wicca and are people who will not be accepted in covens or study circles. even sorcerers who use dark magic don't hate. i also have experience in spell working and magic. unless you are trained a spell is hopeless. the head ache spell you are using is most likely just some
A: silly make believe movie witch thing. or.
B: a meditation exercise that psychologically reduces pain.
also for summoning spells or spells to find lost items or people. that is most definitely not real. spells are for spiritual purposes not for things you can use the Internet for.
because of your level of spiritual understanding i suggest you choose the path of Buddhism thinking. it will help you understanding many things you are searching for even though you do not know what those things are.

a lot of the questions you are asking can be answered if you were to go to the mystic book store and you Will find plenty of books that will teach you what you want to know most of us learn this stuff on our own and in order to join a coven you would half to be invited but going to the mystic book shop is a good start if you are truly interested in becoming a wiccin or a warlock and as to your question about Hitler he was not a witch wiccan or a warlock so get that out of your head right now

Go to the library and learn to study first starting with grammar and then history and logic!
You shouldn't even think of doing spells or keep a journal or starting a book of shadows if you cant spell and write properly!
Work on your grammar before your grimoire?
Why wiccan anyway?
Why not Buddhism or Christianity?
Contrary to what some people claim and how they behave on this board Christians are not all neocon fundies who give religion a bad name thru their ignorance and intolerance!
Why some of us even read books apart from the KJV bible!
Grammar books Dictionaries History books Books on logic and rhetoric and argument. The RSV Bible. The New Testament in Greek or Latin. Good translations of Buddhist sutras. The Quran. Plato. Aristotle. Homer.
Get the message?
Don't settle on one path to the Divine until you have explored and tested the other paths?
