I would suggest focusing on your basic first, in a previos post you stated you do not really believe in magic.
Meditation.
Grounding/centering.
Chakras.
Energy flow
Moon phases.
Colors.
Days of the week best for casting spells
Work on your aura.
Then circle casting ectra.

Actually, casting a circle IS a basic knowledge for a witch...if she wants to learn magick, that means she believes in it...The circle is your personal space where you cast your magick, or a personal space for a group of people who are working together in magick. It's best if everything you need is in the circle cus you don't want to leave your space when you are working with magick, cus the magickal circle is where you have your space and your performance is at it's best...it also helps you to focus your energies while you're sending them out and blocks many interruptions from outside the circle that may disturb your energy...you can view lessons on basics on the forums of covens...just go to forums and above the threads you will see clickable tags...click coven and you will get a list of forums that belong to covens of this site. some of them have lessons some of them...don't lol...you need to be patient when you're learning lots of info will come to you but you need to look for it =)
But most importantly you need to be willing to learn. And read....lots and lots of reading =)
Don't forget to meditate...the mind is the witches most powerful tool =)
Blessed be!
Actually i am very aware of circle casting being one of the basics of becoming a witch,however in a previous post in the welcome thread she was very unsure and skeptik on wether magic was real or not.
That said i did actually add circle casting to my basics list in my previous reply, i would also add Visualization,elements, sheilding,tools.
I think starting out in magic involves learning all your basics first then circle casting what would be the point of learning to circle cast without the foundations and understanding of the rest of the basics First.Once you have worked on your other basics for a good period of time then you would be ready for spell work in your circle:)

You are absolutely right...to build a strong mind you need to build strong foundations first... I consider circle casting an advanced basic knowledge lol...if that makes sense?
There re degrees of basics...basic knowledge is considered what you NEED to know to truly understand magick. That is what i meant =)
And yes i agree that there are things you need to learn before casting a circle. It's like learning the basics of basics.
