Is 9 too young to start learning spells?

I’m nine, but I really want to learn spells. I don’t know if I’m the right age. also, I need to know some good spell books or shops. I know it would be ok with my parents. Thanks!

Hi Sweetie,

I’m afraid to say that at nine you are not the right age to get started learning spells just yet.  if you are sure that your parents would be okay with this, then the best thing for you to do is to ask them to buy you books about becoming a witch.

When you have read those books with your parents and understand what they mean to your parents’ satisfaction, then your parents can help you find a teacher for your spells. Some witches will happily take teen apprentices if the apprentice’s parents approve.

However, it is very important that you understnad that anyone who offers to teach you spells now without your parents being involved might be out to hurt you. Tehre are a great many people online who take advantage of young people when they are trying to learn something new.

Please promise me that before you do any more investigating about witchcraft, you will talk to your parents about it. I know I sound like every other adult out there, but it is very important than you understand how many people would hurt you if they had the chance. I have to spend a great deal of time telling my own children the same thing.

It is important that you find the things you want in life and that you go after them with all your heart. Luckily, you have two loving parents who will help you find everything you ever wanted if you trust them and ask them for advice.

    For me, it’s too late. I’ve been doing spells since I was nine myself. Even added a comment about it in another webpage about being young with witchcraft. Here’s the link if anyone wants to see the comment of what I wrote down:

    Oh, and Rose, um…there are a few typos found in your answer (I understand you are busy with so many questions and probably don’t have time really to edit. I hate typos too.)

    Wait a minute! I’m getting confused now! One webpage, Rose, you mention that people are never too young for witchcraft because everyone is born with magic in them. Now in this, you’re saying that even nine years old is too young? O.o
    Sorry, but I am confused…
