Why do you need so many items for witchcraft?

you may want to stop listening to people an New Age shops, they will try and sell you anything

Cause it takes a lot to please the devil and evil. Evil is never satisfied.

Because if it didn’t, how would anyone make any money from it?

Because idiots have money and Wiccan shops want it.

none of those things are *really* needed. they are tools to help it work easier.

they are items that represent the energy of certain things, we use energy for everything, magic is energy.

Who said it does? Those are simply tools to help one focus. I happen to be bipolar and I love chakra meditation….it simply isn’t “enough” for my monkey mind to shut up long enough. So I use tools to help. BTW, I don’t use a sword or staff. I use candles, maybe a dagger, and the elements. Nothing more. How much one uses is relevant to the individual.

The tools used in magic are just to help you focus your intent, there is no real need for them.
As long as you have focus and intent, you don’t need any tools what so ever, but you are welcome to use what you want to help you along in your magical workings.

They’re focus aides. They’re NOT necessary. You can do Witchcraft with nothing more than yourself.

Magick does not need any items. The items are for you to get in the right “mood” and focus to use your own energy and the energy around you to do your will.
You can do “witchcraft” by meditation.

I don’t know that answer but I would be careful with magick. I don’t feel it is necessary to do all of these things to achieve anything. Things that are so simple are made so complicated. We all have the ability to contact the spiritual realms. Meditation is all that is needed.

Some people feel like it helps them to concentrate
For me the only item that I need is my mind 🙂
