Witchcraft
This is the category where your questions about witches and witchcraft as a spiritual path should go. Based on an ancient shamanistic way of life, witchcraft is a spiritual system known as "The Craft of the Wise" and were a valuable part of villages and communities. Practitioners were the healers and leaders of their people. Modern witches follow the cycles of the sun, the moon and the seasons of the earth for guidance and knowledge. Most, but not all witches practice some form of magic in its true meaning.

There are many types of spells depending on what you wish to use them for. Some are for healing, abundance, insight and understanding, clarification, new opportunities, relationships and friendship, and many more besides.
Some witches choose to incorporate the elements into their workings (water magick, fire magick, earth magick, air magick), work with the moon (moon magick), or perform rituals at each of the festivals in the wheel of the year to honour the Gods, and the season.
You wish to learn elemental magic so what are some forms of elemental magic and who can teach you?
Element magic is a fundamental and basic part of the over all study of magic.
In our group very nearly every working has an elemental aspect.
There are a number of very good books available to give you an overview and basic understanding of the topic, but in all honesty it is important for those interested in truly learning the craft to study with someone of experience and ethics.
Scott Cunningham has several books out dealing with the subject matter and that would be a good place to start.
Check local and on-line Pagan message boards for a group who might be willing to teach you. However, keep your eyes open and your wits about you. Not everyone who looks like a "witch" is in fact one and there are an awful lot of people who claim to have more knowledge than they really do.
What does a black cat crossing your path mean after a white magic spell is performed?
That you should quit dabbling in magic. If you are gullible enough to still believe in white and black magic, then you should REALLY find some experienced witches before you EVER try another spell.
What the red canldes mean in black witchcraft?
Witchcraft, like magic has no color. Magic is just hardness/ focused energy and witchcraft is the method of harnessing that energy. Its the way one uses magic that makes it black or white.
In regular witchcraft a red candle represents Strength, physical energy, passion, courage, protection and defense magic
How can you weaken the intensity of hearing of the black magic spell put on you?
Easily. Just refuse to believe in such nonsense.
What is a focus in witchcraft?
Most people find it easier to focus their mind and hence their energies if the have something to "focus" on.
When working magic practitioners often use a candle or crystal as that "focus". These are not the only things used but are readily available.
When performing Rituals there is often a raising of a cone of power/magic, the focus used to bring several minds into sync can be chanting/singing, dance/movement, a lead meditation (someone leading the group by voice), often in the form of a visualisation (developing a clear and precise mental image of the needed goal).
These are all forms of "focus", there are several others, but these are the most common.

Where do you find a free online guide too reading tarot cards?
You can view some videos on Youtube. There are also some websites such as Free-Tarot-Reading, Learn Tarot, Angel Paths, and Goddess Flight. There aren't too many free guides, because most people expect you to pay to learn how to read them.
What do you do when a candle spell goes wrong?
In all cases of spells cast, the practitioner has an ethical responsibility to keep full and correct records of the spells they cast.
If a candle spell "goes wrong" during the casting, immediately stop the casting , extinguish the candle and ground any and all energies you have raised.
If a candle spell "goes wrong" after the spell has been cast, consult your records (Book of Shadows) and check the ingredients (colours, timing, moon phase and house, incense and all of the other variables). If the spell is doing damage, it is up to you to do a correct reversal/banishment/grounding of the energies.
In both cases, you should be willing to take responsibility for your actions and their consequences.
Should you need to recast the spell, recheck the ingredients, and be very careful of your timing.
What is the summary of the witch?
There is no simple answer to this one. Look in the mirror, and summarize yourself, then have everyone you know who is willing do the same. As varied as these answers come out, will be the same for witches. We're not that much different, simply that we believe in something different than the usual flock. We are individuals, and to be honest, that's what makes us scary to most, as well as what makes us a threat to others eyes. We are human, as pure as that term can be taken.
What exact year did witchcraft start?
The belief in the existence of witches has always been, and still is. The Middle Ages were a time of deep superstition and many things that were not yet scientifically understood at that time were attributed to the powers of witches. In these modern times, we have more education available to us about scientific things, so we are less apt to attribute so many things that we don't understand to witchcraft, but the religion of Wicca is alive and growing today.
Is there a karmic trade for getting a spell cast?
Karma is about the intention. If you have a good intention, you collect good karma, and if you have a bad intention, you collect bad karma.
When you have good karma in store, you can easily do a spell to turn on the good luck. But if you do spells to gain for yourself without having good karma in store for you, then it is like "getting what you does not deserve", and then you are messing up with the natural balance and world order.
Therefore it is always good to do the right thing to the other people. Treat other people properly. Help those who need your help, give what you can to those who need them. Do towards other people with your whole heart.
When you have good karma in store for you, then you deserve the luck to be turned to your favour at your will.
This is like having a credit card with a very high credit limit. You can spend on credit, but you will have to pay later. It is risk free to spend the money you already possess than spending with a credit card, because you don't have to worry about paying back the credit card bill.
The simple fact is that, when you have good karma in store, it is not a tight budget.
Do witches still exist today if so what kind of witches?
There are many people whom identify as a Witch today. Some of these people are also known as Wiccans however not all Witches are Wiccans.
When do the side effects start after saying the spell?
They are superstition, so don't expect too much.
A Pagan Perspective
If by "side effects" you mean the actualization of the spell, then you may have misunderstood the idea of a spell.
A "spell" is one of the manners in which a practitioner performs "magic".
"Magic" is simply stated the manipulation of naturally occurring powers and forces, by the hand and will of a (hopefully) ethical and trained practitioner.
Just saying the words, without the "rest of the work" usually has little or no effect. Properly done, magic can and does manifest the desired result.
That said, I recommend you look into the Threefold Rule, which states, "That which you send out will return to you threefold."
It has been my experience, that the Threefold Rule is remarkably swift in taking effect.
So if you are wondering about that as a "side effect" I'd be inclined to say it will be taking effect "about now".
Who is the author of the witches spell?
The witch makes his/her own spells. But you can go search Free Wicca Spells, or Free Wiccan Spells, or Free Witchcraft Spells, or Free Spells there are tons of websites that contain free spells. But editing the free spells is advised because it will fit you better, and it will become stronger.
Generally a witch who works with herbs to heal. A Green Witch is not just an herbalist, they are practitioners with a strong tie to the Earth and a reverence for Nature. There is an excellent book that my help shed a little more light on this issue. The Grimoire for the Green Witch by Ann Moura. Check it out.
How do you get rid of pain used by witchcraft?
You realize that you can only be harmed by witchcraft if you allow yourself to be harmed. Once you understand that the pain is coming from within yourself, you have to power to stop that pain. Perform a symbolic act or ritual to express your breaking free from the pain. For example, you could bath in water scented with rosemary and sage, symbolically washing away all evil influence. Another powerful symbolic act would be to write the name of the pain on a piece of paper - or draw a symbol representing the pain - then burn the paper with a prayer of joyful thanksgiving. Then imagine a powerful, invisible curtain woven of prayers between yourself and any evil force: only blessings can reach you, and nothing harmful may pass the curtain of prayer.
BUT - be aware that your pain may not be caused by witchcraft at all. It is always a temptation to blame pain or other harm on an imagined evil-doer instead of honestly examining oneself. Any evil or cruelty you have done to or wished upon others must return to harm you. So before blaming anyone or anything outside yourself, be honest and "repent" of your own evildoing.
Finally, your pain could be nothing more than the normal lot of all human beings; pain, sickness and misfortune need no witchcraft or evil cause beside the reality of infection, injury and accident. Do not be quick to look for a witch to blame, but take responsibility for being healthy and strong within your self.
How do you bind someone from magic?
There are several techniques used to bind someone (to many to list here). All of which can be found by googling "binding techniques" pagan.
However, I personally feel that binding should be a very last resort. To many people are using it to "bind" their children from becoming a witch/satanist/etc. When all binding really does is stop them from being able to control the magics and does nothing to stop their curiosity on the subject. Not to mention, would you want someone to bind your powers/inner strengths because they deemed it okay to do so?
How do you remove a magic spell?

It's more a matter of what they DON'T believe. There are many stereotypes about witches-- some people think they worship the devil, for example, but they do not. The word "witch" is derived from "wicca," a word that means a magician, or a person with "wisdom that comes from secret knowledge." Witches generally worship nature, and are dualistic-- they believe in a god and a goddess. Witches became unpopular because they were pagans and the dominant Christian faith was opposed to pagan beliefs. Today, witches are still stereotyped negatively, but most continue the ancient nature-worship and pagan rituals they have observed for centuries.
