@DeeMarie100596 All the courses have a video transcript at the bottom of the page…maybe that will help!
As far as what you need…you don’t need anything to be a witch! But as far crystals I’d recommend quartz. That is a crystal you can use for any need. I’d also say amethyst. That has a lot of uses. Black tourmaline is good for protection. For herbs…rosemary can be used for any purpose. Bay leaf is good too. There are lots of spells that you write things on a bayleaf. Cinnamon is good for adding a spark to your magic. It’s also used to bring in abundance. Here is a ritual for that
There are lots of articles on the Spells8 site as well as in the forum. Just use the search tool! If you have anymore specific questions or need help finding something just let us know! You can also private message me! I too prefer written vs video. I’d also recommend a grimoire/ book of shadows/ book of mirrors. There are TONS of printables! I love printables! I use a 3 ring binder for my book of shadows!
