Where to start in witchcraft: Free resources
When recommending resources for witchcraft, I usually recommend books because authors often put together the best organized methods to start out. Or to increase your knowledge. But purchasing books can be expensive and sometimes we want resources that won’t cost us anything. This list is only meant to get you started. It will lead you to other resources as you build your path.
