death-witch-envy:

I have some advice for fellow witches that I want to write down before I forget.

Don’t just believe what anyone says about magic, even if they sound confident in their assessment. Check their magical background. In my experience, a lot of disagreements in magic stem from people having different paths.

For instance, if you’re studying Sumerian magic, and are talking to a Greek-influenced magician about daemons, they’re gonna have an entirely different view of daemons than you do. It doesn’t mean either of you are wrong, just that you’re approaching the same subject from different perspectives.

Same with blogs. Check their bio, or ask them about their experience. It’ll help you learn more.
