I have been a charmed fan for a while know and have been fascinated by Wicca. I find it hard to believe that some people are lucky enough to have various powers like being psychic (spelling). I am a bit skeptical on the whole spell casting sorta stuff not that I want to be I really do want to believe it I am just the type of person who has to see it to believe it. I have a couple of questions for you Wicca’s
Can any one develop some sort of power or learn to astral project or do you have to be born with like a gift of some sort?
If people do have powers are they likely to show at a certain age?
When you cast a spell does it work like it does on charmed like shiny lights and wind blowing or is there no sign?
I don't mean to come of like a non believer because I believe it is possible but nothing supernatural has ever happened to me. I hope you can answer some of my questions.

Everything about Wicca is magic, because Wicca is about transformation, creation, and spiritual growth and this after all is what magic is all about.
We all have powers within us but they must be developed through practice and knowledge.
The universe is composed of energy and you too are composed of energy. Working with it you can come to understand it. It is the shape energy assumes that creates the pattern of the physical world we see. It constantly transforms, renews, or changes shape with and around us. This constant change responds to and is driven by our thoughts and emotions in ways of which most of us are unaware, and of which fewer still have any understanding. It takes its shape from us, in reaction to us, as instantly and naturally as air conforms to the surface of the Earth, or water to the shape of the sea floor. This is Magic. The art of consciously focusing and controlling this all-pervasive energy. Learning about your natural abilities is a process of self=discovery. When you learn to focus on your natural energy, you'll learn to increase it, channel it, and send it out into the world.
Magic is natural. Magic requires effort. You will receive what you put into it. Magic is not usually instantaneous. Spells require time to be effective. Magic is a divine act. Magic is knowledge------not only of its way and laws, but also of its effectiveness. Do not believe that magic works------know it!

are you speaking of real life? if so... then yea, i am a pagan. or as you seem to refer to it as wicca... I normally practise spells that have a weird effect on others, like some that you see in shows that take on the effect of persuasions and thought projection. altho you all seem to have done it longer, for me its been about 7 months and unfortunately i seem to lack the abilitry and knowledge to get past the stage of casting. whenever i do it usaully makes a big poof and then its done haha. funny huh? but there are other spells i use as well, like necromancy and such. infact a few months ago i had the same experience as christy.
I tried to conjure my dead grandma. but i ended up bringing to life a swarm of bees. even though the encounter only lasted a few seconds i thought it was still cool as all hades. the bees basically appeared, flew around the room and disspeared in a poof of smoke. and whats even more amazing is i used some of my blood to do the conjuring. seems that had a use after all

There are places to go to learn more about wicca. I do not do any of the necromancy stuff for it always has back fires. But it is nice to see another Pagan here. I have been taking classes and have passed First Degree and am on Second Degree. There is alot to learn and take in.

Woo i'm back to the forum after a long break ! I can't believe how long this thread has gone on for, even though no one has posted in a few months. Lovely to see all those wiccans out there! I have to admit i had neglected trying to astral project de to my hectic life but i am happy to say that i have started practicing again! I hope it's only a matter of time before i can do it
