Hello Rose.:) I’m from another continent and i’m sorry about my english, I don’t speak really good. Im interested in witchcraft and i read a lot about it on internet, some new books and history books. Here in the country I live, I don’t know about any witch and I want some help from people who know magic. I need a teacher. Maybe a teacher isnt the right word but I dont know any other in english which would tell what i mean. I need someone to help me on my way to meet magic and way of living i want to live. Can you maybe help me in this? Or can you give email or adress to write someone whou would? Cause i really want to know everything i need, to discover this world and everything. Im pretty sure i really want to tho this, for now, from everything i read. I write a journal and my feelings, i believe that i can. So, can you please help me?
Merry Meet Seeker,
It is wonderful to hear from you. We can certainly help you. Below you will find a list of internet sites which will help you to understand Wicca. Also included are many books that you can order through Amazong.com or any other book store if you wish. Of course, you really don’t need the books if you just read about Wicca online, that should be enough as a basil lesson.
Wicca is not about reading, of course, it is all about living it and enjoying it and using it to help yourself and others who do now know about this magickal way of life. So here goes:
One of the best ways is to read books that have been written by Wicca practitioners, such as:
Wicca: A Guide for the Solitary Practitioner by Scott Cunningham
Living Wicca: A Further Guide for the Solitary Practitioner (Llewellyn’s Practical Magick Series)
by Scott Cunningham
Drawing Down the Moon: Witches, Druids, Goddess-Worshippers, and Other Pagans in America Today
(Compass) by Margot Adler
The Element Encyclopedia of 5000 Spells: The Ultimate Reference Book for the Magical Arts by
Judika Illes
Solitary Witch: The Ultimate Book of Shadows for the New Generation by Silver Ravenwolf
and many others who have taken their time to explain in simple English how to become proficient in the wonderful religion of Wicca.
Another way to learn all about Wicca is to get my collection: http://www.2eggmarketing.com/answers/Assets/PHP/%22http://www.masteringmagickwitchcraft.com/video/%22
A third way to learn all about Wicca with friends who are in your state or town is to visit the link:
http://www.2eggmarketing.com/answers/Assets/PHP/%22http://www.witchvox.com/%22
Here, you can search on the left panel and locate your home town to see if there are Wiccans in your neighborhood.
You may also search on the internet via groups such as Yahoogroups or Googlegroups to find many covens that are all over the world. Some of them may be near you.

How to find covens
Check out this link. This is a list of Gaia covens that I found on Meetup.com
http://www.2eggmarketing.com/answers/Assets/PHP/%22http://www.meetup.com/find/?keywords=Gaia&mcId=&mcName=&lat=&lon=&userFreeform=&gcResults=&submitButton=Search&op=search”
Similarly you can search for Gaia covens in Google groups and Yahoo groups.
Also try http://www.2eggmarketing.com/answers/Assets/PHP/%22http://witchvox.com%22 where you can find a list of the left side of the webpage. Go through the list to find your country, then city to find out what services are available for witches from all over the world. Here you can find covens as well as individual witches. You may also see advertisements on various workshops, fairs and gatherings.
In your own city or town, try to go for spiritual gatherings even if they are not Gaia oriented. You’d be surprised by the number and variety of information that is available.
Yet another source is your own backyard. If you have found no Gaia covens in your area, why not start one?You will find others who have been waiting to join a coven.
Brightest Blessings.
Rose.
