Magic Forums

Hello everyone, I'm Dakota residing in the U.S.. I'm new to this and not exactly sure where to start as far as reading. I have a base idea, and would like to start with learning what magic truely is and its beginnings. im not sure if i need to know magic in whole or just what you want/are studying. i have an idea on what i want to study, learn, practice. The Qliphoth ceremonial magic, left hand path, occult, black magic, dark magic, low magic. whatever you want to call it. any help in the right directions. as far as where to start on this site, what to read. or books and such that i can purchase would be of help. thank you for your time. and have a nice day
