This was recorded in October 2020, a few weeks after the conversation that inspired this video. I originally planned to post it in November, but I didn't get around to it until now, January 2021! These are just some of my thoughts about "what is needed / necessary" as someone begins to learn about Witchcraft, Paganism, Neo-Paganism, etc. This is not an exhaustive list, nor is it prescriptive. Mostly, these are thoughts I had in response to someone asking whether it was enough for them to be interested in learning in order to start, or if they had to have "lineage" first, or else not bother at all. This video talks about a couple different ways we might use the term "lineage", and then goes through other thoughts I had about what I might be helpful to keep in mind when starting a journey into this realm.
Your mileage, and your suggestions, may vary!

I might even make a follow-up video to this, talking more about some of those additional thoughts and notes I added, since this was recorded months ago and I thought of other things to say while editing that might have needed clarification! This is also a symptom of feeling like we need to know it all, and trying my best not to be misunderstood.
