<h3>What is a Sorcerer?</h3>
A witch, Sorcerer, or magician uses occult methods to try to change the world around them.
Up until the 14th century, "witchcraft" in Western culture had more in common with sorcery practiced by people from other civilizations, such as those in India or Africa than it did with the witchcraft associated with witch hunts.
Prior to the 14th century, Sorcery was widely practiced in small towns across Europe, from Sweden to Sicily and from Ireland to Russia.
However, these Sorcery similarities were not the result of a shared culture or a hidden religion, but rather of the universal human desire to accomplish one's goals, whether through open or covert means.
Early Western Sorcerers and witches operated covertly for personal gain, similar to their counterparts around the world, as opposed to the open exercise of religion.
