I'm from am initiatory tradition, and it can be hard for people like me, because some of us feel like we did it "the hard way," and I think there's some resentment. I myself am not like that, but I understand the mindset. I think Witches coming up now are very lucky, because there ARE so many public groups and resources that are easy to get a hold of. I started studying back in the late 80s/early 90s, when it wasn't as easy. Blessings!
