Wicca where to study??

Question

any good websites or books to study wicca or black magick????

Answer 1

Hmm Black magic.. and Wicca in the same sentence. Most Wiccans would do everything in the light not the dark. Then again there are those who follow neither light nor dark, but believe we are all grey. Some are a light grey some are a darker shade. In any case it is the person who is lighter or darker not the magic.

Try witchvox.com for a good start. If that is not what you want there will be links to other sites which may be of use to you.

Ray Buckland Wicca for life: The Way of the Craft from Birth To summerland.

Black Magick is a misnomer. Magick is neither black nor white.

Intent is in the caster, not the magick. Wicca prohibits mal intent in magick or non magickal actions. An Harm Ye None, do What thou will.

Answer 3

Magic is not evil, in the first place. Magic is the art of unlocking the vast untapped resources of the human mind--powers to function in ways that seem magical but are consistant with the laws of physics where everything is connected energy. It has nothing to do with any religion, but iis a tool used by all of them Including Christianity, in the power of prayer. As for Wicca, check out the books of Starhawk, The Spiral Dance is good. Check out Margot Adler, Drawing Down the Moon, and while you are at it, read some quantum physics to learn more about the manipulation of matter and the mind. While you are at it, find and read the Witches Rede--and pay close attention to the part that says, "an harm none, do what ye will" and remember the rule of three--whatever you do to someone else, you will get back three times worse (or better, depending on your intentions), before you even think about black magic.

Ok, just an addendum. I am a born witch, could not be anything else. I have a very strong connection to "god", whatever name is chosen for it. I do not believe that "GOD" is a mysterious and powerful male (who dictated that?) entity, out there somewhere that is watching my every move. I believe God(ess) is here and now, present in every molecule and atom of everything, and that all the answers to all of my questions can be found through the power of my own mind. I am not broke, nor poor in spirit, I have a deep connection to the living universe and the eternal circle of life. I am not a Wiccan, tho I have traveled that path, which has led me to other paths, and now I find myself on a shamanic path.It seems to be a natural thing, and everthing I have learned has taken me to this point, and yet, I still know nothing. All I know is just a glimmer thru the trees. But my journey carries me forward, and there is enlightenment all along the way. Blessed be and may you always walk in light.

Answer 4

You can't study Wicca with one hand and "black magick" with the other. Wicca has no such silly concept as magic having colors, and I'm willing to wager that what I'd call magic is not what you're calling magick.

Wicca is not a type of magic, it is a RELIGION and if you're not in it for the gods most of us Wiccans would generally rather you were not in it at all, thank you very much.

Wicca has no demons, and is only about controlling YOUR SELF. Teenieboppers and Alleged Christians claiming otherwise doesn't change that.

Answer 5

Books and websites won't give you what you want. Go outside. Listen to the wind. Hug a tree. Watch how Nature interacts. And then watch what happens when a person messes with others. Here's a story for you: my grandmother from Peru came to America to live with us when I was about 6. She was the Wicked Witch of the West. She loved to psychically screw with people, my dad especially. She would wander the neighborhood looking for someone who spoke Spanish, and when she found someone, she would tell stories about how we beat her or locked her in a closet for days without food. And then those people would say bad things about my parents to other neighbors, sometimes knocking on our door and saying them to my dad's face, and my grandmother would just sit there laughing her head off. She just loved drama. Well, my dad eventually had enough and put her in an old folks home, where she died alone of a broken spirit. That's the kind of life that karma brings you when you spend all your energies making people miserable. It's way more fun to be in love and happy and having good relationships with people! Life can be great! I really hope you consider what I've said, sweetie. Hugs and bright blessings!

Answer 6

Wiccan designs saddly wouldn't know black magic(k) if it fell on their heads....

Wicca is a study of all forms of paganism, contrived by many an author to give the wicked witch a makeover, now after like years of practicing the ecletic wiccan designs want more so they create books like "night magic(k)" and noturnal witchcraft..to keep from being the FAD they was saddly created to be.....

Truhfully wicca is only like 80 years going, and because paganism has become the ideal new truth, they begged borrowed and stole their concepts from there as well......

Businesses change everything.....and sometimes so do religions.....

Answer 7

Black magic and Wicca have nothing to do with each other.

Black magic is hexes and manipulation spells, which are FORBIDDEN in Wicca.

Wicca is the study and worship of nature. Their major rule is "And it harm none, do what thou wilt."

So I suggest you study better. Your question is offensive to me and I'm sure many other true Wiccans.

Answer 8

OK, first, read about the lives of famous occultists:

http://usminc.org/famous.html

Then decide if it's worth persuing. If you want to wind up broke and forgotten, go for it!

If there is any truth to the old saying "Those who can, do. Those who can't, teach.", that truth is found in the occult, and Wicca in particular. Silver Ravenwolf has written close to a dozen books on the subject of "The Craft", and claims she has been studying it since about 1969, which is almost as long as I’ve been alive. She has written a book on how to cast money spells, and includes a chapter on how to do so in her Teen Witch book. But the thing is, she doesn't particularly sound all that prosperous herself. Ravenwolf writes,

"For years I couldn't afford to go to a hair stylist (still can't, it's shop and chop for me). I got pretty good at styling my own hair from looking at magazine pictures" [SOURCE: Teen Witch, Llewellyn Publications, 2003 edition, page 145]

OK, she so rich she can't go to the hairdresser. Hey, get me a copy of that Prosperity Spell book!

Silver Ravenwolf seems to have inadvertently discovered that Wicca makes things worse, but won't ever admit it as such.

In Teen Witch she says,

"A lot of people tell me how bad their lives have gotten after casting a spell and tell me they won't do Witchcraft anymore. I tell them their lives would have been much worse for not having cast the spell."

Gee Silver, you would think a lot of people would be saying things like "Hey, Silver Ravenwolf, my life has improved tremendously with Wicca!" if Wicca is as great as they claim. Instead it makes lives much worse, and even Silver Ravenwolf admits she hears this a lot!!!

Why? Because sometimes, things are just as you think they are. Most people would tell you the occult will bring misery into your life, and most people would be right. When you stop trying to rationalize it with inaccurate data and just use common sense you will realize this. There are two forces at work in this universe: the counterfeit and the genuine. Wicca’s source of power is not the genuine. There’s just simply no way Wicca (and thus the copycat Neopagan religions) can be created from the black magic writings of Aleister Crowley, “The Great Beast 666" (where much of Wicca is plagiarized from), the bizarre sexual practices of Gardner, the spiritual “guidance” of the Watchers (fallen angels) mentioned by writers like Grimassi and Husson, and still be a source of good!

None of the people who will answer your question can make it work either, Don't delude yourself. It's an incredible waste of time and money, and it's spiritual poison.

Answer 9

Black or white the magick is all the same...its what you do with it. I suggest Scott Cunningham(sp). If you have any question drop me a line I'll be happy to fill in the blancks for ya'

Answer 10

No such thing as black or white magic. Magic is the attempt to control nature &or people by the use of spells, incantations etc. To be effective means associating with demonic powers as you will eventually discover.
