So when you first start out it is always good to have something pointing you in the right direction. In this I won't tell you how to do anything just give you a few pointers in what to do (if that makes sense).

-Meditation.
Meditation (in my opinion) is the most important thing to get done. It allows you to concentrate more on what you need to get done and also supplies you with the energy needed to do it.

-Coven.
By this I mean find a group. It can be in or off this site. But having a group of people to help you is always better than having to struggle to find the information you need. (But don't rely on them to heavily). Try to choose one that teaches about what you want to learn, this will avoid you having to leave and find another one. Some people even join multiple covens so they can learn about more things. But one is good enough for just starting out.

-Energy Work.
Learning about energy and how to use it helps you in learning all of Magick. Learning how to make a energy ball or psi ball is good. After you have learnt that try making different shapes this always helps a great deal for most types of Magick.

-Protection.
I never learnt about this but it is recommended by most people on this site. So research the Circle, Protective Charms and Herbs.?

-Ritual Equipment.
This is very important in my opinion. Learning about the tools you will use and how you will use them is very good and will give you the edge when performing rituals. So here is a list of things you will want to use; Athame, Chalk (white us the best), Ritual Clothing, Candles (research what color does what), Alter, Alter Cloth and Paper (some will disagree but I always keep some paper handy in case I need to write something down).

-Path
This is the best part about Magick. Choosing what your going to study. It is okay to mix and match and learn to subjects that are completely different. So after you have chosen what you will study (and you are allowed to change your mind) you are ready to go out there and search for yourself.?

So good luck with your studies
Be Well and Learn, Grow and Love.
