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

When you are that young (or, younger than 18), I would not advise against allowing a younger to pick up the tarot, the Iching, or the Runes. What I would advise against (if younger than 18) is the actual, REALLY Serious Stuff. And that would be Ceremonial Magick, Transcendental Meditation, Alchemy.. things in that ball park. You want a young person to have AS MUCH "normal" experiences as possible, before they start having more serious/abstract/reality-shattering/defining ones. Please heed this info. -------------------- My Profile: http://www.magickcircles.com/BadGirl
