My 11 year old daughter has expressed an interest in learning Tarot. I have told her that I would teach her when se was older. She askes me all the time and I have been putting her off for at least 6 months or more. My question is how young do you thing is too young to introduce a child to Magick? I am really interested in how other people view this. Thanks in advance. DENK75

As long as magic doesn't interfere in the child being a child then it is something that parents should discuss and come to agreement on. Not that this will change the mind of a young person who is dead set on learning about such things! LOL! I grew up in a very 'liberal' household when it came to religous studies and worship, yet my parents were not happy when I started delving into the occult. They banned my usage of various books and Tarot cards after an unfortunate incident with my best friend and his involvement with a satanic cult. I ignorred the ban and did what I wanted to anyways! If a child wants something bad enough, they will do so no matter what...you just have to pound some common sense into them, pat them on the head, love the hell out of them and hope that they absorbed enough of that to keep them out of trouble... and be there for them when they need you! Good luck! I'd say that unless your family is steeped into such things, keep preteens away from the occult! This is merely an opinion.
