Being a Witch?

One question bothers me - can you be a witch, but not having anybody in your family as a witch or wizard? Because I am in that situation o.O

Of course you can. Just like you can be a psychologist but no one else in your family is, or a milkman XD

Well of course.
How could they start, if you had to have one in family?

There's been a lot of hype about Hereditary Witches (people born into magical families or having ancestors who were witches) but I personally don't think they have any more power than someone who is new to it.

of course!!

Yes, yes you can. And my father might have been the milkman, Zebrah. :P

Thanks guys! So I am really really new in this stuff. I don't even have my book of Shadows (yet). I don't know how i can start.. Help with that?

Start with your basics, then you have something to write in your Book of Shadows :D

Also a 'mirror book' might be of help. Just get a random notebook, nothing special. It is a personal journal for magic. You write your thoughts and feelings of whatever working you did and your progress in the basics. It can be used as a nice little tool for learning by yourself. See what you need to work on and all that. Hence the name mirror book. Lol. I don't really hear that term used a lot. I only read it one time in a Scott Cunningham book. Lol.

Also, if you need help with the basics you should read The Teen Witch By, Silver Rvenwolf.
