The hat represents magickal gnosis. A wizard must be able to focus his will to a single tiny point, to be transmitted to the astral plane. The gnostic mind can also receive visions in the same way. The pointy hat is basically an antenna from the to the astral. Obviously you don't HAVE to wear a pointy hat to be a good wizard, but it's a convenient visual metaphor for what wizards are and what they do.

As for robes, it's because they convey a sense of sophistication and authority. Priests wear robes. Kings and queens wear robes during ceremonies. I realize this is somewhat circular logic, but it's the best answer I can come up with.

I'd say that they help in the magic process. Hat might be for what >>53296 said but I'd say robes help with magical power too. I'm not exactly sure of the magical properties of silk but wizards develop certain methods, rituals, techniques, as well as use certain items because they found them to help in the process.

Probably because they traveled a lot and went into the woods for mushrooms and herbs. Outdoors attire has changed.

There is literally no valuable difference between Wicca and all the other crap paradigms.

>>53719

All more dependant on the individual doing the magic rather than on the system, yes.

>>53721

So…? A system must automatically enlighten someone and improve his spiritual abilities.

>no one notices the thread picture is the same shit that AIDS-chan person is going on about

>obvious loosh thread so wizards will debate wizard attire

Seriously u guys?

>>53719

There's literally nothing wrong with Wicca. It's a valid initiatory tradition along the same lines as Thelema, with various grades and degrees.

Solitary "kitchen witch" Wicca isn't real Wicca. That's just a scam to sell books.

>>53805

So how DO you become a legit solitary witch or w/e?

>>53965

Simple

You need to eat the beating hearts of men as you copulate with them, preferably by ripping them out with your bare hands. Once you have eaten 71 hearts you will become a succubus.

The pointed hat comes from the dunce hat.

>he hasn't been wearing pure silk everything for years

There is nothing better than silk, just don't wear it outdoors.

>>65444

You can't.

You have to buy silk cloth by the yard and sew it yourself or get someone to sew it for you (and dye it yourself because high quality silk cloth is only sold white).

Sewing isn't very difficult to learn you just need to be able to cut patterns, hem edges, and connect pieces.

>>65449

I find that hard to believe.

You can buy tanks and missile silos on the internet, there has to be at least one place that sells custom order wizard robes.

That qualifies as getting someone to sew it for you. just find literally any tailor and give them a design and cloth and they'll make it for you. You could of course find them online but then you have to pay for shipping and the price will likely be less fair.

tl;dr unless you live in a place with no tailors within 100 miles there's no reason to use the internet instead of a local tailor

As for the robes, yes it is used as a barrier, both for keeping the wizards magic inside the body and dont contaminate the exterior and the other way around.

Silk is really fucking hard to clean.

>>65624

>really fucking hard to clean.

oh i see, thank you

I just wear large hooded sweatshirts

Drug rugs are my favorite right now

Hoods are often pointed, it's essentially a robe/wiz hat you can wear in public.

>>65633

How black are you on a scale of italian to sub-saharan?

>>65530

Shit says cotton and nothing on that site suggests you can pick a different material.
