Witchcraft? An Introduction

No, really. But not really.
What I mean to say is that it is Witchcraft but that it won't become a substitute for hard work or physical action. Above all, I wish to express that Witchcraft is a system of thought like thermodynamics, and also like thermodynamics, it can be used to hurt people or cause others harm. However, I will not give any information on malevolent magic except to warn, inform, and teach one how to dispel a curse or hex and how to prevent one from ever even reaching you. I believe that the spells a Witch sends out comes back to affect them with thrice the intensity once it affects the target. If one sends out pure energy full of light, then the Witch will experience joy, but once the Witch casts a single malevolent spell, it comes back on them and can send them into a descending spiral. There is only one rule to follow in witchcraft to prevent harm from coming your way. DO NOT HARM ANYONE(including yourself, more on this later).
I intend this blog to be a place where aspirant Witches (or any pagans really) can come to find a compendium of information on occult topics. I don't wish to set any dogma out on the table, or to lord it over other Witches as to how a thing should be done. Magic is egalitarian; anyone can do it. There is no hierarchy or clergy; it's you and deity. No middlemen are required for spells to work, however convenient a priest may be, he is not anymore powerful than the most humble kitchen witch. One chooses to be a Witch on their own. There's no need to proselytize to cowans (non-Witches). In fact, secrecy has been stressed by many adepts of the past.
I wish to warn those who would read this blog (or any source of occult information) that it would be unwise to say anything about your Craft initially, for a variety of reasons. First and foremost, the will of a collective group is far stronger than the will of an individual and in terms of energy exchange, should you cause even a few people initially to exhibit doubt to your mind, the energy involved with this will weaken your magic, and opening the veil will be much more difficult.
Enter into this with a critical eye as I will strive to present many different, and often opposing ideas in the same post. This is in order to give many (if not all) the theories their fair share of regard. One of the first mysteries you must learn is that just because someone is right, doesn't mean that someone else with a different jive has to be wrong. Quite the opposite the idea of many mainstream religions, its often a hard concept to grasp fully, as many have been conditioned to believe the black and white fallacy.
In closing, feel free to skip whatever doesn't appeal to you. If a spell bores you, it probably wont work. Enjoy, and happy casting!
