Magic Forums

This is exactly what I have been searching for!!!! Ever since I was a little girl my mother has always called me a natural witch and has said I have "magical gifts". Recently I decided to do my research and look more into my "magical gifts" and my mind has been blown. I have found my place. However I will not lie and say I'm not overwhelmed. I'm reading books on the different religions and history of them all to find where I feel I belong the most. On top if that I'm learning about colors, astrology, numbers, deviation, lunar phases basics of writing your own spells etc etc. I have learned a ton so far and plan to learn a lot more . I hope no one minds when I ask a million questions because I hold no shame in asking when I do not know something. I have read that you should cast a circle before any spell casting and at the same time I have read there is no reason to because all energy is welcomed it is just a personal preference? I am open to all comments advice and tips so please feel free to share! Thanks!
