I want to become wiccan. How can I do that without spending money that I don’t have? I am homeless and I have no money but I LOVE being out in the nature part of the world.

If you are truly interested in the Wiccan faith, you first need to find a community near where you stay.

There is no requirement of spending a great deal of money to become a Wiccan and the best students are usually those who apprentice with other witches. The time of the apprenticeship gives you time to become familiar with the tenets of the faith and allows your mentor to see your dedication to the faith.

Most Wiccans ask that you apprentice for a year before joining a coven or witches’ circle. This gives the witches time to become familiar with you and you to time to decide if you fit in with their method of worship.

Start by finding the pagan/Wiccan community near you. Look for information at libraries or univeristy campuses. Fidn out if there is a local new age bookstore. Then, start asking around.

Generally speaking, wiccans and pagans are the friendliest people I have ever met and will be happy to help a new student out.  When you find a coven willing to help you, let them know that your interest lies in natue or in Wicca itself so that they can help you find the proper path for you. Not all witches practice the same way and letting them know what your interests are will help them guide you better along your path.
