Either everything or nothing.
Everything if you trust one another, nothing if you don't.
Secrets have power.

EDIT:
Sure...work together, much better than working alone.
When people work of one accord they are stronger.
In perfect love and perfect trust.

Tell her to run as far away from you as possible, and as fast as her little legs can carry her.

Then sort yourself out.

Tell her nothing as she and your self should have nothing to do with things that the Devil uses to deceive the people of this world.

Give her quartz crystals.

As a Pagan myself, tell her that it is a very spiritual path that doesn't have the strict guidelines as Christianity does.

Try finding a book on Paganism like this one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0028N6VWI/ref=pd_lpo_k2_dp_sr_2?pf_rd_p=486539851&pf_rd_s=lp o-top-stripe-1&pf_rd_t=201&pf_rd_i=1593371187&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX 0DER&pf_rd_r=0ZSPNV6GCCYDVY96TZCA

Give her the titles of some of the books that helped you. Hastings Books often have a good selection of books on Wicca and Paganism. Let her investigate on her own.

You guys could go to a public park and meditate or something. That would be cool.

1. legally you nor anyone else can teach her until she is 18 or older.
2. If she is really interested let her barrow your books but don't teach her. If you are under 18 also you should not be practicing until you are old enough.
3. Remember this. Wicca is a pagan/polytheistic religion, or rather many religions under that name. While witchcraft is not Wicca or Paganism. It is a craft which doesn't need religion, deities nor Christian Demons to work.
4. Candles, wands, besoms and the other "tools" are just that, tools. They help you focus but are unnecessary once you learn how to do things.
5. BoS is good since it is a journal for your journey as any of those three beliefs. A good place to start aside from the books. If YOU have questions, ask me...

Have her have a long talk with her Mom about spirituality, God, Goddess and have her discuss (not yell at her mom but talk) what it is that she would like to do. HAve her tell her mom that she would like to explore but that the area that she wishes to explore will not allow it unless she can demonstrate that she has the permission and support of her parents. If, after listening to her, her Mom decides that it would be OK, then have her MOM contact me and I would be happy to help her find the knowledge which she seeks. But without her Mom's permission, no reputable Witch (Wiccan) would do so. Any that would need to be watched with a VERY wary eye. There are a LOT of disreputable people who would use a set of Religious beliefs in order to take advantage of a young person. Wicca (Witchcraft) is NOT learned from a book, it is learned by living AS a Wiccan (Witch).

Brightest Blessings,
Raji the Green Witch

Tell her nothing, that's my advice dear for what it's worth. The less you tell anybody about what you are doing the better. Your friend must make her own way.

God and the Devil are backwards.

The Origins of Satanism

Satanism is not a Christian invention
Satanism predates Christianity and all other religions
Satanism is not about spooks, goblins, vampires, Halloween monsters or other related entities
Satanism is not about "evil"
Satanism is not an invention of, or a "reaction" to Christianity
Satanism is not a creation of Anton LaVey
Satanism is not about death
True Satanism is about elevating and empowering humanity to reach equality with the Gods, which was our True Creator (Satan's) intention
"IN THE SECRET OF MY KNOWLEDGE THERE IS NO GOD BUT ME"
-SATAN
From "Peace Be Unto Him"

Due to centuries of misinformation, lies, and the systematic removal of knowledge, few people these days understand or even know what ?Satanism? really is all about.

Christianity has been at liberty to dictate without any opposition, what they CLAIM Satanism to be. In order to accomplish this, the truth had to be destroyed. The Catholic Church (the original Christian Church, from which all Christian sects have evolved), heinously tortured to death and mass-murdered millions of innocent men, women and children in what was known as "The Inquisition." Some children who were burnt to death in what were known as "witch houses" were as young as two years of age.?

Christians forever rant and rave concerning the "one world order" where all identities, cultures, personal privacy's, and liberties will be lost and humanity, after being systematically bar-coded, will be lumped into a one-world slave state. What they fail to see is how their own so-called "religion" and bible have always been and are the roots of and blueprint for this regime. Everything in the Judeo/Christian Bible has been stolen and corrupted from religions predating Judaism, Christianity, and Islam from hundreds to thousands of years. Through Judaism and its tool of Christianity, all of the original spiritual teachings from around the world, (which are CONCEPTS) have been stolen from, lumped together into the "one," and corrupted into Jewish archetypes and characters and fictitious places. This has given the Jewish people as a whole a false history, political power and "spiritual" authority to which they are not entitled.

The bible is a very powerful subliminal tool to control the masses. One can see this is a man-made work as there are endless contradictions. The bible has been systematically drummed into the minds of the populace from a very early age. A lie must always be enforced as opposed to the truth which can stand on its own. Because spiritual knowledge and occult power have been removed and kept in the hands of a "chosen" few, the unknowing populace has been helpless against it. The agenda here is to create a one-world slave state with the "chosen" few ruling at the top. The perpetrators of course blame Satan to create a necessary distraction, while they use occult power to accomplish their ends. They have a history of stealing from and blaming their enemies for everything they really are and do, while always holding themselves in the highest esteem and innocence.

The original religions now known as "Satanism" (by the way, "Satan" means "enemy" in Hebrew), were all based upon what is known as the "Magnum Opus" or Great Work. The one known as "Satan" is our True Creator God. He was prevented by the other Gods from finishing his work on humanity, that of the godhead. The godhead is physical and spiritual perfection. Now, if you continue to read on, I will prove this.

The serpent is seen everywhere in ancient relics and structures. The serpent was held sacred in all areas of the ancient world. Satan is the God Ea, aka ENKI, one of the first of the Nephilim to arrive on this planet and establish the first civilization. In Sumerian mythology, Enki's symbol was always the serpent.
The serpent represents the DNA, the life force and the kindling and has survived as the emblem of the American Medical Association and Veterinary medicine, where it is symbolic of life and healing. Only with the coming of Judeo/Christianity, has this sacred symbol been desecrated and blasphemed.
