New guy help?

https://www.facebook.com/witchesnwiccans free lessons and books and almost 4000 members in the group to help and support you on your journey. blessed be

learn like man possessed, meditate often(pref daily) and start with focus on energy(both types) manipulation it`s a basic for just about everything(especially which type to use or in which proportions to use them)

DONT do what woden said to "try some spells and see what happens" magic takes training and discipline, fined a good coven that can help teach you

Welcome to SoM

Read the newbie central first before you do some spells. I might suggest that you can start by making Psi Balls and other basic spells. Remember also to read about the magick rules and the three fold law.

Again, welcome and blessed be.

Ranald,

Greetings and welcome to spells of magic where many have started in their magickal path. I am Ultraios a member who has been among this site for approximately three years and have been practicing magick for about two and a half years.

A good question to ask yourself, "Where do I want to begin?" As the basics are to believed to vary from path to path or belief to belief, however, I advise researching different paths like Vodou, Heathenism, Hinduism, Wicca, Paganism and others to see where your own beliefs stand. After you find what you believe to be the right fit for you, delve deeper into that path and find what it all consists of and what not.

What the general basics are supposedly in more of a somewhat universal point consist of the following:

Will
Intent
Belief
Visualization
Knowledge of how energy works
Understanding of how to apply energy
Meditation

These are just a few things I have recalled from the top of my head and what I have seen others in varies paths speak on. I suggest researching a lot, reading into different things, cross-referencing what you find with other sources.

Regardless what you choose, I suggest knowing it and understanding whatever it is. Also use common sense, intelligence, and maturity when you are deciphering what is fact and fiction.

I hope this helps and I wish you success in your future endeavors.

Sincerely,

Ultarios

dont start into spells right away. start with the basics and fundamentals and history, it will definetly help you in the long run. good luck and blessed be :)

Hi I am new here, however I am not new to spells, what I wanted to know is I would like to cast this spell Cry of the Sea Love Symbol but don't have seawater as I do not live near the ocean. Can I make my own using unprocessed sea salt and water?

Thank
