Your first project!

Next you will need to learn the moon phases and write them down. I added a drawing with it! You can google a picture of it as an example.

First I will tell you how to make a Witches Ladder. It is the first charm I have ever made. First take three strands of somthing and then just braid them! Pour your heart into it and say a chant that has to do with it. Mine have been: His love may not be, but answers there shall be. I have also done Let evil stay far and kindness near and only happiness may stay here.

Learning witchcraft! Getting started

First you will want to get a witching notebook/journal. I had mine be what was supposed to be a math notebook as to hide what I am doing from my parents. If you don't want your parents to know, I suggest disguising it.

My notebook

Next follow the steps bellow. If you are Christian, use this creed. Since it is quite long, you may shorten it. I am a Witch, and proud of it, free to be as God created me, Living my Soul's Destiny... Magickal, Mystical, Mysterious me, I am Love, exceedingly. I am not here to please anyone. I need no one's permission to be who I am, nor do I seek approval or require validation. I am only here for Love. I am a Christian Witch; I love my cross and my wand. I consult my Tarot deck and my Bible. I adore & am devoted to Christ & the Goddess. In the name of the Holy Christ Presence, it is so, and so it is! Ase & Amen.

You can use the creed to do this instead. Then write the one you used in the front cover of your notebook.

How I got started

Hi. I'm Katie. I'm about to tell you something that may or may not blow your mind. I'm a witch. Well, not fully. I'm studying the witching ways. While I was researching, something dawned on me. I'm Christian and I'm confirmed to the church! I found out that it is okay to be a witch and Christian! Phew! Now let me tell you about witches.

Witches are real. Some of them are in the Wicca religion! Witches have been around for hundreds of years. Now, real witches aren't like Harry Potter. We cast charms doing rituals. I've only done two, both making a witches ladder, and when I start doing it, this weird feeling comes over me. My heart doesn't hurt but it just... I don't know. As soon as I stop the charm, it goes away. I'm almost 13 but I haven't told my parents. Someday I will... I just don't feel ready to. I will bring you along in my journey with the art of witchcraft!
