⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀          　　　ⵌ one ,　research　⊹ ࣪ ˖ ᨳ໒

　　          those who are experienced within the community immensely stress the need for research before anything !

              I found that it's really important to seek out information yourself before trusting something I read in a book or

              seen in a tiktok . I really had to get down to the basics of what even is witchcraft ? what are my exact intentions

              when entering the space ? what are closed / open practices ? what are my boundaries / lines that I'm either not 

              willing or willing to cross ? there's a lot of simple , yet complicated questions I've begun to face before truly 

                 considering myself as an individual who practices witchcraft / magic . . especially , before doing it myself .⠀ ⠀

　　　       　　ⵌ two ,　protection , protection , protection !　⊹ ࣪ ˖ ᨳ໒

　　            after I felt that I was ready to start trying some things out (spellwork , candle magic , etc.) , I learned that

             before any of that , protection comes first . I need to be covered by protection before , during , and after anything

             I choose to do . Quite literally every thing and person I read , listened to , or watched spoke about protection as a

             huge topic . I don't know about you . . but , that is something I can't ignore . Honestly , you shouldn't either . So ,

             if you haven't done that protection spell , made a protection candle , and or warded your name . . you should do

             that sooner rather than later .

　　　             ⵌ three ,　slow n' steady　⊹ ࣪ ˖ ᨳ໒

　　            before and especially during the very beginning , I was becoming quite overwhelmed with the information

             that I was intaking . there's so much I have to still research / learn about , spells n' magic that I want to dive into , 

             and so much more . I sorta felt that I had to get to this level of prestigious knowledge to finally dip myself in . but ,

             that's when I had to tell myself that there's no rush ! I can still learn and also do at my own pace . There's so many

             layers to this practice , and to think that I'm just gonna get it all in one sitting is quite unrealistic . I had to reasure

             myself that I'm not ahead nor behind , I'm right where I need to be and that's okay :)
