Do I have to have the tools to perform magick and rituals?
There are many groups, or traditions, of Witches. The answer to this question often depends on the specific tradition of witchcraft/paganism you're following. Generally speaking, the answer is no, the tools are an extension of yourself. All you really need is desire, focus and visualization. The tools help you focus your intent. They trigger your subconscious that you are doing something special. Incense and candles lend their energies to your own.
