I want to get into magic and witchcraft. Are there any book that are a great introduction to these topics?

This is real truth, my guy. It's like lifting for aesthetics, or getting married just to have sex. It's completely back-asswards.

Magick is real, but the real trick to magick is to change yourself and thereby change the world around you. If you haven't the heart to self-improve, learn, gain understanding and wisdom, and dedicate yourself to occultic matters, you're truly never going to make it.

Given this, the best introduction is to read the bible, work out (if you're male), and join a mystery school (of any kind, but it must include ritual and it must be in-person. Online or schools without initiation ceremony are pointless). I'm not joking about any of these, you cannot advance without them.

Once you've done this, the world is your oyster and magick will come naturally and the information will reveal itself to you.

Here are some simple spells to start out with: clean your fucking surfaces (tables, floors, cabinets), do 100 magickal pushups, don't allow water to stand in your house, light a scented candle, take a shower, clean your bathroom. There's no point in trying to do magick in a house where only unclean (dirty) spirits would come to view your work, and many more will come if you are beautiful/handsome in their eyes.

OP here, back from work.


Based question. Honestly? It'd be a lot easier (though more time intensive) to say which ones AREN'T solid. They all have their uses. However, the Pentateuch is where everyone needs to start (and then the Gospels, obviously). For in the first five books is contained the whole of the law, and in the gospels its fulfillment. Of note: do not skip over the laws in Leviticus and elsewhere. These are the most sacred Laws and you should answer to them as far as you can. If you are already learned (and by this I mean, you've already read these books and more, not that 'I think I read them when I was a kid' shit), Job, Isaiah, certain books of Paul (though not all), all contain mysteries worth meditation. Since you're asking that question, I would advise you to steer clear of Revelations. It is the last book of the bible and should be read last. 

Finally, if you want to know my favorites: Leviticus, Judges, Proverbs, the Gospels (you cannot read one without the others), and all the books containing the story of David and his sons. 


Sitting water is a stagnate spirit.

Notable exception is a glass of water kept next to your bed while you're sleeping (which you must pour out the next day, undrunk) if you're having unwanted dreams. If you like your dreams, however, there is no reason to do this, really.
