How to get experienced

Witchcraft is a practice like all other practices and it isn't something you're just going to know everything about in a week. It requires an immense amount of study to learn it, and the best part about it is that it can be used for your whole life and there is no end to what you can do with that knowledge. Because Witchcraft is such a general term with so many different aspects and types throughout various cultures it is nearly impossible to learn everything about it in one lifetime which makes it such an interesting practice.
Anyway, when getting experienced it is important to read about it and try it yourself. Even from reading little things and tidbits of info can add up in a big hurry and soon you will start knowing how to make your own rituals, spells, herbal remedies and you will begin to piece things together to get a bigger picture and make sense out of it more and more. Let's take Silver Ravenwolf as an example. Most pagans believe she is a terrible author and is more in it for the money and fame than the actual practice, but the way I look at it is that there is something to learn from everybody, even Silver.
I try and take a little from everyone to get their opinion and beliefs on the subject, that way I can decide for myself what is right for me and what isn't and have a more general outlook on it than just an outlook taken from one or two people. Either way, have fun learning about it and always try and keep an open mind.
