There are countless books out there by self proclaimed witches who share the knowledge that has been public for a long time but witches like you and I seem afraid to share rituals and spells that we have written. It makes me wonder if for a price a witch might share but if its just to share among friends they just aren't willing.
Why are so few witches willing to share their rituals and spells?

It's not nessarily that, it's that we look for the right people to pass our knowledge down to. Well I do, and I tend to be very picky. I can give advice and help someone when they ask it till I'm blue in the face, but to share my personal things, that come from me, to someone that doesn't have the same thoughts, feelings, or ideas (for we all follow diffrent paths, even if we are in the same line of study) it's a feeling that such rituals, ideas, tounges, and walkable paths, will not work or treat the caster correctly.
I have truely ever met one person that I have ever shared anything with, or willing to share anything with. For they are very very like me. And even then what I pass on to them, they shape to better fit them.
BTW ~GABE~ has just had a baby girl she's 9lbs and doing good.

the spells and rituals are imbues with the essance of the creator maybe they are reluctant to share other than with close friends because of this

Words are just words.....nothing changes that till you add intent.
I've used others words for a great many spells.....just by changing their order, adding my own intent and power.

My true spells, the ones that are mine, can't be shared or passed to others, for they have no words, no rituals, they simply are a part of me, and me them.
"To be Witch, is to be Magic." (I know its a quote, but I can't for the life of me remember where I heard it first)
To know my most personal magics, you would have to share with my soul directly.
As far as other sharings, I know an OLD tradition, that has long gone unpracticed. I have given up on bringing it back. Instead, I am re-creating it in a new form, Pexis Nox (Night Magic), and giving its language a new form. I never did know the whole language, no one has, so I am also recreating that as well. Once its done, I plan on presenting it as a 'new tradition', I, and a few others, friends, possibly you, will be the links to the power and magic of the old tradition, bringing it into the new, and as it is passed along to more and more, it will also get fresh, new energy, and power. Thus reviving the tradition, keeping its power, yet, presenting it in a new body.
If you are interested in helping me write/re-write rituals for it, and tradition ideas, let me know! Its not a project for me, its for the magic/tradition. So I want to make sure it is unbiased, and has a little something for all Kin who wish to practice it. And more importantly, revive the ability to get close to and follow Ereshkagal, now known as, Hecate.

I don't really feel comfortable sharing my deepest energies with just anyone. My youngest granddaughter has shown signs of being very psychic at a very young age. I think I will be sharing everything I know with her because she is sooooo very close to me. She has bonded with my heart, mind, and spirit. When she connects it's like she's part of me and she does it naturally. She's to young (10 monthes and she's been doing this all along) to learn this. She's extremely charismatic as well. My family has had it's fair share of gifted ones, but my granddaughter is like no other. I'm impressed with her.
