I just wanted to say hi to all baby witches
lets begin our adventure
Hello 👋😊 I'm as ready as I can b 🎊🎊
I've been studying and researching about wicca and modern witchcraft for going on 10 years now and this is as good as any modern documentary I've ever watched. It's even better because it doesn't have that forced 'wow' factor as though it were teaching non-pagans on the subject and trying to appeal to their christian ideals. :) It's very straightforward and touched on all of the main and important subjects. Sure there's PLENTY more the video could have touched upon, furthering the number of traditional paths formed in the 50s-70s, or how modern wicca has been recognized as a legal religion in some countries now, but for a brief history lesson and explanation on the subjects, this is perfect. I loved this. I'm excited to see the rest of the lessons this series has to offer :)
Thanks for your kind words! It means a lot! I hope you enjoy the rest of the videos in this course and keep studying. Blessed Be!
Today is my first day but I’ve always been spiritual and in tune , I’m not sure where to begin but I think I found a good start here , I’m going to get some books and items so I can begin my journey and start fresh
I was raised Wiccan, and sort of left it out of everyday life from high school until I turned about 26. Not because I detested it or anything, just found myself thinking of other things I guess. I still don’t identify as Wiccan, but, well, pagan. My ma passed almost 10 years ago (shortly after I took after the old beliefs again) and a favorite old crown concentrated her death which was absolutely rad. Of course some of the Abrahamic folks were appalled, but that didn’t and doesn’t confront me none. To be honest the fact that my religion or beliefs can’t exactly be defined into a label is awesome to me. Just sayin’. Dig the channel and appreciate your work. Much thanks!
I've stumbled upon this channel today and I am so glad I did! I'm trying to study and find my path and this really helps! Thank you! Blessed be!
Proud Wiccan family, here, from Northern California 💫 Blessed BE!
These videos are very helpful and educational, thank you!
So this is my callings is?... No wonder why I'm so founded of all this before I knew it here. Then why the negatively? But it's is overwhelming.
A few points, corrections;
1. Alex changed his story a few times about his grandmother up to and including to be initiated he had sex with her. There is a strong feeling by many he simply used public info at the time, joined a existing coven for ideas to create his Wicca sect and his grandmother story was just a PR stunt to give him legitimacy. This is a main reason why the Gardner Wiccan's look down on his sect.
2. While you don't out right say it and left it obtuse, it should be noted there is no historical evidence to suggest the witches Gardner met at New Forest were of some unbroken line that goes back very far. Modern witchcraft, Wicca is mostly a reconstruction of what we know of General European pagans with other occult sources and imagination tossed in to fill in the blanks.
3. Your map should show India and other major Hindu countries listed, as Hindu, by definition is a Pagan religion.
Overall great video, keep up the good work!
I totally agree with you
Alex was not truthful
Thank you for sharing enjoying love and light ❤️
I like the concept to the point I am learning and now a Practitioner Witch of Wiccan My goal is to Start a Coven Thank You for your kind support .
So glad i found this! Studing hard to be a future wiccan priestess for a year now 😊
I've been practicing for about 20 years. I'm looking forward to watching all the videos and seeing what new knowledge I can add to my arsenal. 😁
Blessed Be!
Thank you so much for this video. After studying and researching Modern Paganism for the past couple of years, I've officially started my journey to self-initiation.
This is so helpful
Alex changed his story many times
The notion than Alex Sanders' grandmother initiated him into The Craft is fiction. Although he did a lot to make The Craft more accessible, especially to young people, he, like Gerald Gardner craved publicity whether it was good or bad. The best account of modern Witchcraft is "Triumph of the Moon" by Ronald Hutton which dispels many of the myths that have attached themselves to Craft history.
Im a demonlater pagan i really liked this

You skip over Crowley that predated Gardner , and jump to 1940s England to Gerald Gardner like all the other witches were asleep.
Crowley, while a contemporary of Gardner, was not a witch or into paganism or witchcraft. He was an occultist who worked with chaos magic and sex focused magic (and did a lot of drugs). He and Gardner didn't get along very well thus never spent much time together while Gardner was forming his version of British witchcraft. Also their inspirations came from different sources so assuming Crowley should be lumped in with the subject of modern witchcraft or wicca is assuming he followed these ideas or principles when he didn't. He's an important and influential figure, yes, but it's been proven already that his connection to the formation of modern witchcraft and wicca was much smaller than we all initially thought. So I think, in this case, it's okay to skip over someone who never really directly influenced the movement to begin with.
@@RowanWiccae Agreed. Crowley influenced modern day occultism but not Wicca. Yes, he was a crackhead.
They wonder why the art is being LOST!! They stick to KEEPING THE SECRETS then complain when their traditions and way of life is being lost. Seems like a ridiculous way to think. Why try to keep these things to yourself? Self centered ness has never gotten people very far. Glad someone (like Frater X) are trying to save the traditions by TEACHING this to others. I’ve always despised the GATEKEEPERS!!
Frater X is an awesome teacher . Having the knowledge and being able to explain these complex concepts are two different things. He is gifted when it comes to teaching these mysteries
and the foundations many systems spring from.
I don't think its self centerdness its fear. Witchcraft even today has a negative contention on a lot of people. And its not like history has been nice or even fair to anyone who practiced it. I believe that you need to give them time and patience, encourage them to want to teach you, instead of judging them. I mean really if you could do real magic would you want the world to know? Are you not afraid of becoming some test subject for medical science or the government? Or possibly being killed because your powerful and the why is unknown? We as a race tend to destroy what we don't or can't understand.
I don’t understand why people keep things a secret. Like the folks who were upset about these books being published and RUclipsrs who do banishment rituals but won’t share them. Why is it preferred to hide knowledge from others rather than share it?
It is time to remember and reflect on the crimes the Puritans committed in Essex County Mass. in 1692, how they unjustly accused and murdered by hanging so many of our people, Salem will never be forgotten or forgiven. We offer a prayer to our Lord Ahriman and enter into the rituals of blood, salt and water in remembrance. Blessed be.
I HAVE SOMETHING SEPARATE TO MENTION INVOLVING A DIFFERENT METHOD OF MAGIC DOING:
Okay we know of WitchCraft; But I wonder about Wizardry, and Sorcery, and to add I wonder if there is anyway to learn how to become either a Wizard?
Or is there anyway to learn to become a Sorcerer, and I wonder if magic-energy still existed is there anyway to learn to cast real magic spells?
This is how
Great vidoes, but the word "lineage" is pronounced "li-nee-uhj" (three syllables) not "line-uhj" (two syllables)
I quite enjoyed the video, although Budapest's transphobia is portrayed as more of an eccentricity than the act of hate it is. I'm a bit let down ngl
Never mind Budapest. She is not Wiccan. It has to be Lord and Lady or it isn't Craft.
@@Master_Blackthorne Sorry gatekeeper, but you don't get to decide what is or isn't witchcraft. Neither witchcraft not paganism require worshipping "the Lord and Lady".
critical role
Are you as pretty as you sound? I bet you are!
Maxine and Alex were married in 1968, Maxine was born in 1946. 🦌⛤⛧🤘
thank u
