Hi, I've been into witchcraft mainly Wicca for about 3 years, I've been on my own through all of it & I'm still really lost. Do you know of any books or websites that could help me with learning about my craft & buying supplies? Please & thank you.

Hello there! Sorry for the late reply. Before jumping into the book recommendations I need to let you know that many of these books are very old, or have outdated views that are now considered incorrect. This mostly revolves around concepts like the history of Wicca, Wicca and Witchcraft being confused as the same thing (they are not), smudging and cultural appropriation. Now, they are still good resources, but you should definitely take what you read in them with a pinch of salt.  

Having said that, on with the links! This is the link to my resources page, all of which is pretty trusted information.

Isobel’s Grimoire

Here are a few links from it specifically that I think you will find useful :)

 A few Wicca books (With added PDF links where I have them);

In regard to supplies, don’t feel like you need to be pressured into buying them. You can find most alternatives at home; a normal plate for an altar dish, a kitchen knife for an athame, a stick from a tree for a wand and besom, a scarf for an altar cloth… etcetera. Don’t buy things because you feel like it is what other people would do, buy them because you like them :) charity shops are a great way to pick up supplies. Herbs in the food isle, spice jars for your witchy jars. It’s all a matter of looking at mundane objects in a witchy light. For anything else, try places like Amazon and Ebay before you try something like Etsy. You’ll likely find things to be a lot cheaper.

Depression Healing Spell

tinylittlewitchkid:

(Note: This spell will not make your depression go away forever. It will make it disappear for a while, depending on the person. This is not a replacement for medications or therapy.)

Ingredients:

  • 1 blue candle 
  • 1 white candle 

Light the blue candle, and then the white. 

Say this spell three times: “My days have turn sad, don’t let it make me mad. Depression go away, happiness come this way.” 

Blow out the blue candle, and then the white.
