start to know ur magic and how to use it lol

start with the basics

start with the basics. learn about magick before you start to try it. many of the spells you find here will work but not all and there is never a guarantee that they will work.

Here are some links to help you:

Also about.com is a good site for all kinds of info. Once there, put Wicca basics in the search bar. It will take you to basics of magick, too. I was on it for hours just looking and reading. And copy and pasted a lot of things to my computer.
Blessings!

merry meet.

to answer your questions, start with 'the basics' of magick and your path, such as meditation, energy work, circle casting and so on. if you're Wiccan things like The Rede, tools, and holidays might be good to learn as well, but each path is different so i can't say exactly what you should study. you should do your year and a day ceremony where you studying everything before decided to convert. if you are planning a religious path over just casting spells. in either case i would take some time to study before casting, say a month of hard studying.

some of the spells on here do work, but many are fake and non-working. magick is energy found in nature, as such it can only do things that are naturally possible, so transformation, invisibility, and flight [to name a few] cannot be done. as mentioned above, study before casting.

not all spells need supplies, the energy you bring forth is what's most important, supplies such as candles, herbs, athame, wand, and so forth are to help with charging more energy. you can cast a spell with no items, but sometimes they're key, like a healing potion without any herbs, or a luck charm without the charm.

over all, i'd study. i don't know your path so i can't help you in terms of books, but look for some articles on the basics.
