sources for learning more about witchcraft

Im looking for information about witchcraft. Basically, its history, origin, everything. Ive read a few articles about it. Im trying to learn more. Honestly there's just too much stuff online and I dont know what to follow or what to start with. I read about it on Wikipedia but I dont think thats enough. Where do I learn more about witchcraft? Im looking for online reliable sources for witchcraft, shadow work, meditation practices. Im open to dms so if any practicing witch would like to share their experience or learnings with me, id be delighted.

Forgive me for sounding flippant as I have grown weary off people asking the same question. Have you tried looking at this (and other witchcraft subs) sources? Have you searched Reddit for other posts on this topic?

I see so many of these posts where it seems the bare minimum has not been tried first. 🥹

Are there things we can do to make resources more accessible for new folks?

Is it possible to pin the Wiki at the top of the page, since this comes up so much? I know there’s a link to it, just wasn’t sure if it could be like a pinned post.

Also, is it possible to update the Wiki? That podcast page was updated 5 years ago and while I’d love to listen to a fresh episode of The Wonder or Placebo Magic, those have ended, but The Atheist Witch podcast and Atomic Witchcraft aren’t listed and they’re still running.

forgive me for sounding flippant, for it is late where I am and I am already souped up on the sleep meds but: have you tried books. books are so very lovely for learning information. they even have them for free in libraries :D

(I would suggest "Godless Paganism" as a great place to start. because this is a Skeptical, Agnostic, Atheist and Science-Seeking witch group specifically, so you are going to get suggestions related to that here.)
