You should start magick by the basics.. But I should add,different paths have different basics. keep practicing the basics daily.Also,research is a best way to start. Working in some paths and features on magick can give you a good idea. you can research in this site:through,forums,articles,chatter and more!just keep on researching.You can download online PDFs and some books by some notable sites. Or you can simply borrow a pagan/Wicca/witchcraft book from your local library. Also, a good look at the general info threads in this site can be helpful. If you can't afford to buy a book , you can download from google. Here are so,e links to get started:

Well, if you're serious about learning how to do magic and with starting from the rock-bottom then you don't start out by casting spells, you start out by learning how and why magic works.

You see, there is no such thing as an "easy" spell or a "beginner" spell. One either understands how magic works and has mastered the basics...in which case the magic will work..or you haven't done that sort of work..and no spell will work no matter how "easy" it seems.

Casting a successful spell involves much more than finding some spell on the internet or in a book, saying some words, lighting a candle, waving a wand of any of that sort of thing. In order for magic to work you need to understand how and why it works in the first place. Grounding and centering, visualization, focus and intent, energy manipulation, etc are all necessary first steps to even begin to have a chance at a spell actually working...and more importantly to prevent a spell from back-firing on you.

So, my advice for anyone who is truly serious is to start by reading a few books and practicing the exercises those books will give you. Once you have mastered the basics you won't need anyone to give you spells, you'll be able to create your own spells that will be far more effective than anything you find on the net. Here's the books I suggest:

"Before You Cast a Spell" by Carl McColman

"Spells and How They Work" by Janet and Stewart Farrar

"The Veil's Edge" by Willow Polson

"Modern Magick" by Donald Michael Kraig

Also I suggest that you have a look at these books

After you do start doing spells,make sure you have time before sleeping to ground yourself and release any extra wnergy you may have. Wow,can be tough to sleep after using large amounts of energy.
