Get to know me!

1. Your favourite type(s) of magick. 

Candle.  In fact I never do magic without a candle or Three.  I prefer the candle colors match the type of spell I am doing as well but as said many times on here before, that is just for ME.

2. Your least favourite type(s) of magick.  

Anything Planned.   I am not into planned Rituals or Magic, I do not know if tomorrow is a ritual day or if the next one will be next week.   I am a very spontaneous person in real life as well and I think magic is a very personal experience as is ritual.

3. How you feel about the Trifold Law (if you follow it)

Of course I do believe in the law of return (no idea what has happened to my font or color here.   lol   I believe what is sent out, comes back.   but not times 3, more like times 10.

4. How did you first meet your spirit guide/animal. 

I do not personally believe in spirits of any kind, let alone spirit guides.   I have a cat which could loosely be called my familiar though because cats are drawn to me and I am seriously drawn to them.   and Turtles.   :)

5. Your opinion on death (murder) curses. 

I started a curse once.   I stopped it very quickly because it was wrong.   If you are doing a black ritual which is where you let built up dark energies out of your system, think about someone dying or being cursed or what not and then you release that energy out into the shadows then to me that is ok because this is a PSYCHOLOGICAL process and no one is harmed by it and in fact by not doing a ritual like this, you could end up doing more harm to yourself then Yes, I think it's good but to actually do a curse where someone dies..?   do you want the law of return hitting you back and say killing your boyfriend or sister?    NO!

6. When do you feel your most powerful. 

When It's raining.   Cloudy days. I feel connected, whole, alive.

7. How would you keep a hex at bay. 

I have learned how to Ground and Shield myself from such energies.   I have never had to deal with this though because I know that if you piss a Witch off, that is at your own risk and I am not that stupid.   :)    Besides, most modern day Witches do follow the Rede in some shape or form so I have no reason to worry.

8. Do you work with the dead? 

No.  I do not believe you can work with the dead.  When a person dies, I believe that their energies are reabsorbed back into The Goddess and their bodies decay, I do not believe in Ghosts at all and I do not believe that you can contact the dead at all.

9. How do you feel about using dead animals.

I would never do that.   First of all, where would I get a dead animal?   I would NEVER kill an animal to use it in a spell or ritual and second, I am not into road kill, that is just disgusting and besides that, what spell calls for a dead animal?   UGH.

10. Do you use blood for any casting. 

Yes.  I have, my own blood and just a few drops.  To call my sister back into my life, to heal my mom when she had cancer, that kind of thing.

11. What’s your opinion on complicated rituals/spells.

Rituals do not need to be complicated if you are a Solitary.  I simply light candles and incense, oil, burn sage, turn on some music and relax.   I write my spells or read my books or go outside and sit in the rain.  That is all I need.   That is ritual to me.

12. How did you begin your Craft.

I was 9 when I was introduced into it and 12 when I was really aware of what it was all about, I started practicing completely when I turned 17 though.

13. What magicks have you used on yourself. 

I have cast a spell for money as I said in a previous post, I have cast a spell to not be sick and it worked, I have cast a spell to find love and it worked, I have cast a spell to get my sister back in my life-and it worked.   Spells for personal gain are to me what any true Witch would be using magic for but also to help others, to heal the planet, animals, people which is really to me, The Goddess.

14. What magicks have been used against/at you by another/others. 

None that I am aware of.

15. What type of record do you keep of your information (spells, potions, charms, etc).

This Journal.   I do not have a Book of Shadows as of yet because I have never seen one that I was drawn to buy, I am very particular about what I buy, what I have on my Altar, etc, I am hoping to post some pics of my altar on here by the way SOON!  (Off Topic I know)

16. What type of curse was the last one you used.

I wanted to ruin Casey's wedding to Pete because she had dumped me and gone back to him, This was during my mid life am I gay, crisis but I thought better of it and aborted it.  An It harm None do what ye will.

17. What magickal artifacts do you use most.

I have a Bell I ring as I go into Rituals, I have a chalice that I use of the Moon and Stars but I need to replace it because it's well worn.  I use candles, incense, Oil, sage, dice, books...

18. Which of your magickal artifacts did you make yourself. 

None.

19. What are your personnal beliefs regarding:

19a. Gods/Goddesses. 

The Goddess IS The Universe/Nature.   

19b. The Fae    

I Do not believe in anything supernatural.  magic is NOT supernatural.   The Goddess IS Nature.   I guess you might call me a Naturalistic Witch but I prefer Eclectic.

19c. Demons. 

Demons are a Christian invention.   I am not a Christian, I was not raised around this religion and therefore I have no beliefs in demons.

19d. Gremlins, brownies, pixies, ghouls.  

Again, I do not believe in anything supernatural or Paranormal.   ONLY The Goddess, Magic, Logic, ration, skepticism and Personal Experience which so far has not included any of the above!

19e. Black vs White magick. 

The Way I was raised is that there is Black Magic and there is White Magic, These days it's popular to say-There is no such thing as Black Magic, I personally think this is a reaction to Christianity, to make us look or sound better but I believe there is such a thing and I do not believe in Black Magic, in doing it, if someone harmed me or someone I love, I do not know what I would do though, surely the law of return would take that person out, would it not?

20. Define yourself: Wiccan, Witch, Pagan Etc…   

I am a Solitary (I work alone) Eclectic (I draw from many different religious ideas) Witch (I revere The Goddess, Practice magic and seek to attune myself to the natural cycles of the Earth).

21. Patron God or/and Matron Goddess.  

No.   This is a Wiccan teaching.   I believe In The Goddess ONLY.   Yes, I do believe in Balance and that there is a Male and female energy in this Universe, God and Goddess, I prefer however to use the word Goddess.

23. Your Sun Sign.     

Taurus but I do not believe in astrology.   I am a very scientific oriented person and I have read hundreds of books on rational thinking, reason and logic, critical thinking and I find that astrology is just not accurate to describe who we are as complex beings.

24. Your Moon Sign.  

No idea.

25. Your Rising/Ascending Sign. 

Again, No idea.

26. Your Favorite Element. 

WATER!   The Rain!

27. Favorite Tool.

Dice.

28. Favorite form of Divination/Scrying. 

The die (Dice).   The die is something I carry with me when I go out but these days I do not view it as The Goddess talking as I did when I was younger though I admit that at times looking back at the past instructions that came from the die, It does seem that something more intelligent was leading me and guiding me to right decisions.

29. Favorite Sabbat. 

I do not celebrate the Sabbats being that I do not consider myself Wiccan.   Halloween is my favorite holiday though.

30. Pet Peeve of the Pagan Community.

People who argue about whose beliefs are “right.” 
When people get their head bitten off for expressing their opinion.
When people are excluded from a group/conversation because of their race, religion, sexuality, or gender identity.  Everyone has a right to express their beliefs and be who they are.

Blessings!
