Hi,I’m thalia..Im about 15..and i just recently got interested in witchcraft… But i dont know if i can ask two question but im going to try… 1.Are they’re any good Wicca books? 2.Can i even practice witchcraft does it have to be in our blood??
Merry Meet Thalia,
It is wonderful to hear from you. I am happy to hear that you are interested in Witchcraft. Of course I can suggest a number of good Wicca books for you.
As for your second question, you certainly do not need to have witchcraft in your family tree. In fact many natural witches may not even be aware of their powers. They just live happy, joyful lives helping others and taking care of their families.
Anyone can be a witch if they wish to do so and are willing to learn about this simple and beautiful religion. It doesn’t take any special circumstances or powers other than what we are all born with. So here are some books that you need to look into so that you can learn more about witchcraft:
1. Wicca: A Guide for the Solitary Practitioner (Includes Author’s Book of Shadows) by Scott Cunningham
2. Living Wicca: A Further Guide for the Solitary Practitioner (Llewellyn’s Practical Magick Series) by Scott Cunningham
3. Drawing Down the Moon: Witches, Druids, Goddess-Worshippers, and Other Pagans in America Today (Compass) by Margot Adler
4. The Element Encyclopedia of 5000 Spells: The Ultimate Reference Book for the Magical Arts by Judika Illes
5. Solitary Witch: The Ultimate Book of Shadows for the New Generation by Silver Ravenwolf
Brightest Blessings Thalia

Thalia, do NOT contact that person. He’s probably a pedo or something. Any books from Scott Cunningham seems to be the best route for a solitary beginner. As for having it in your blood, it’s somewhat of an argued fact. Some believe so, but to be quite honest I feel most believe it doesn’t matter.
Smith, the fact that Thalia is interested in the Craft is not a problem. The fact that she is exploring and learning about other religions, practices, and beliefs is actually helpful (in my opinion). The fact that she is reading about the Craft (or any other religious/spiritual belief) is actually helpful to her. It helps one find their true self, and helps one understand themselves and the World around them (again, in my opinion, and from my experience). I’m around the same as Thalia. I’ve been reading about the Craft and Wicca, for over a year now. I truly believe that it is the path that I need to be on. I believe that with every ounce of my being. I believe that, and that I’ve been a Witch in my other past lives (though I don’t know the specifics of those past lives, not yet anyway). I also believe that I have Druidic ancestry. The fact that she’s looking for more info on the Craft and Wicca means that she’s going about this in a smart manner. She’s not rushing in to preforming spells and rituals. And since she is going about it this way, it is very unlikely that this will be harmful to her, but rather a positive experience. BB )O(
Correction on my comment. The sentence is suppose to read: I’m around the same age as Thalia.
