Familiars

 Familiars

A familiar can be an animal, a plant or anything with energy residing within it. An animal is usually the chosen familiar, such as a pet, which can lend it's energy to your purposes, ritual or spells.


Usually you must ask permission of the familiar prior to taking it on as your companion in the craft, sometimes it is given automatically.

Another type of familiar is the one you create yourself, a non-material being, created from your own energies, that can act for you when you cannot do so yourself.

Common bad information relating to familiars:

Familiars are sent to do a witches dirty work...(This is wrong information and it floats around the net quite a bit)

Familiars are demons (WRONG AGAIN)

Familiars are always cats....(Definitely not, I know someone who has a dog as a familiar)

Familiars are given to a witch from the devil.....(WRONG AGAIN,,,,there is no devil in The Craft)

Witches suckle familiars from their breast.......(THAT'S JUST PLAIN NASTY)
