What Are Your Most Pressing Questions When It Comes to Witchcraft and Magic?

Ok, so I’m working on expanding the witchcraft section of the site as I’ve covered all the basics of the Wheel of the Year and am now moving more into tarot and witchcraft. I’m curious so that I can create content that is helpful for everyone here - what do you want to know about witchcraft and magic? Where are you stuck? What questions do you have about spells or correspondences or herbs or candle magic or anything else.

There is a guide to witchcraft in the shop. And, there’s a 101 guide on the site. If you go to the main site (pagangrimoire.com) I massively expanded the dropdown menus so those are easy to find.

But, please, ask away. I’ve got over 100 articles to write about witchcraft alone, so it’s likely I’ll choose one of your questions as a place to start.

I think it may behoove me to go check out those guides! IDK what IDK, right?

We all appreciate this home on the web, and I for one forget there’s not just a forum!

I’d say, right off the top o my head, we’d need to check out the topics created looking for info.

Newbie book recommendations. Familiars. Deities. Altars. Beginners spells. Unknown Entities.

These are the topics I see that have ‘floated’ to the top of the ‘stack’. Not saying there isn’t info

in the articles and guides, just that those are what seem to get the most discussion here.

I definitely need to expand my book recommendations post and maybe create some specialized ones. Beginner spells also a great idea. I’ll add that to the list for next week. Deities I want to expand - I’ve got guides on some, but only “how to work with” on two of them so far (Persephone and Lugh).

The other topic suggestions are great too :slight_smile: Thank you.

I think a lot of people do. That’s ok. I don’t take offense, but it’s there to help people. There’s about 280 or so articles on the site and I try to add another at least every other day, but sometimes they take a bit longer like the recent one on symbols used in witchcraft and magic and another I wrote about grimoires vs books of shadow. I just don’t always link them because it messes with the SEO of the main site sometimes, which is quite annoying as I would like for them to be resources.

I am very interested in anything/everything about herbs: planting/growing/ harvesting/ drying/ using in spells/ healing… I am in process of creating a " witches garden" in and around my vegetable and butterfly garden areas and although I have gathered resources, more and possibly a place to discuss would be so very helpful. Thx.

Fanciful Friday Rebecca,

Sounds great, and like you Sedim, I often forget to check the site first!!:upside_down_face:

A question for something I rarely see Rebecca…something about solar witchcraft. Much focus is on the moon, but I loooove the sun and am here in Vegas (where we have sun ALWAYS). I am curious about sun rituals. I am a solar witch and perform my oblations in the morning and again around sunset; I know how tight the time can get. Just an “out-of-the-box” question.:raised_hand:

Today is World Donkey Day…I guess we all have permission to be an “ass’” today :rofl: :joy:

Oh that sounds lovely! There’s definitely room for discussion in this forum - we have an herb section. It’s a bit quiet - but it just takes a person curious about the topic to get it going!

I don’t have a ton on herbs, but I can write more of them. I have this post on herbs for mabon and this post of 15 herbs to grow in your witches garden.

Which would be most useful to you?

  • Spell-based herb posts: ex: use these herbs for protection spells
  • Deep dives on a particular herb: all of chamomile’s uses, correspondences, benefits, spell ideas, tips for growing / harvest / drying

(both is ok too!)

Any particular herbs or spells you’re interested in at the moment?

Hi Lady Gene!

It’s ok! I wonder if perhaps creating a pinned post at the top of the different sections might be useful to help guide people towards the resources / articles. There’s also a shop too with witchy boots, some apparel (adding more soon) and some ritual tools. :slight_smile:

Thanks for this idea! I love solar magic and the Sun too. I have two posts on this so far, but always happy to go deeper on it. I have this one on solar magic in general that has a few simple spells. And then, of course, the Liber Resh.

I think a question I am asked a lot by new comers is what is the difference between witchcraft and wicca.
Then comes the question can I be a witch without needing to include a god or goddess in my practice, and if so, how.

Maybe having answers to questions like those will help a lot.

Thx! I think both would be great. The spell based would be a good starting place. I have checked out the herb thread…but it was pretty quiet. I’ll check out the links also. Thx again.
