What Is The Secret In Following
The Magical Life?

The magical life is a life surrounded by those mysterious traditions, folk customs and magical traditions that date back into Briton's past. In those times of yore, in our far-away past, independently minded solitary folk practiced the magical arts and performed ancient spells in the time-honored manner. The wise women and village wizards were highly valued by local residents for the advice, care, and assistance of villagers, family, and friends. It was a time when life truly revolved around the seasons of Nature, a time when Nature seemed so very close and as mysterious and powerful as seeing a huge full moon in the starry heavens while standing in an isolated forest clearing.

Did such times of awe and wonder only exist in bygone times?

No. Nature will forever be a most glorious and wondrous power we can experience. And it is part of the very soul of witchcraft, containing its true meaning, its true representation. Today, Traditional British Witchcraft, or "Trad Witchcraft" is for us, the modern expression of all that Nature is and has ever been. It is a reflection of the old nature-based beliefs and practices. Trad Witchcraft has always been a personal religion of the heart, mind, and spirit. Indeed, it is the very essence of our spirit, our very being and our core. Traditional British Witchcraft as a way of life, for it envelopes our life as we are Nature's children.

Magic is a vehicle of the central essence of Nature. Magic today plays the same role that magic has always played. The Traditional Crafter (witch) uses the power of magic as a tool for protection, for positive change and personal improvement. It is a vital part of daily life.

Can anyone become a Traditional Crafter?

No. While it is true that just about anyone can study and practice to become a Crafter, very few people in our society have the interest or determination to delve into our mysterious religion because it would be too uncomfortable for them. You see, conventional people want conventional religion.

Witchcraft is not for the masses. It is only for a select few that dare to take a different course, who thrive when they discover a hidden better way, who relish to gain secret knowledge of an understanding about reality that can expand and contract.

It requires an adventurous and dedicated spirit, one that yearns to form a new and strong relationship with Nature and the spirits, one willing to study and practice new skills, new techniques of the mind until they are well mastered.

Can I become a Crafter even if I have no psychic ability?

Yes. You may be surprised to learn that psychic ability is not necessary. Psychic ability is irrelevant in understanding and appreciating Nature spirituality, in the performance of rituals, or in the practice of Traditional Magic. Of course, good psychic ability is a plus, but it is not necessary.

Can you teach me only magic?

No. Traditional British Witchcraft is a very rich and profound religion. Traditional Magic is an integral part of this religion. One cannot be separated from the other. Other paths will teach you magic only. But we view our magic through spirituality and the gods and spirits are a vital part of it.

Just how can I become a Traditional Crafter?

If you would like to start on this path, I recommend you can take a FREE Mini Course on Traditional Magic which will introduce you to Going Within, Traditionalist meditation which has been part and parcel of Trad Witchcraft since its beginning centuries ago.

You can also join us by taking the Full eBook Course, The Journey to Trad Witchcraft, which will teach you the time-honored beliefs and practices, and teach you much more about the techniques of doing Traditional Magic.

Your journey in life is completely in your hands. Whatever spiritual path you select to travel is your decision.

Is This Wicca?

No. Trad Witchcraft is not Wicca. Wicca is a modern religion founded in the 1950's and based on many external sources. While it contains some elements from witchcraft, however, it is primarily based on the highly ceremonial magick associated with the occult societies such as the Golden Dawn, rather than the old folk wisdom and magic of the British Isles. We respect Wicca as a sister religion and recognize properly trained Wiccans as witches, but Wicca is not Trad Witchcraft and Wiccans are not Trad Witches.
