MY THOUGHTS AND FEELS ON WICCA

 One of the first things I learnt about Wicca, was what it is and what it isn't.

 It has nothing to do with the devil or satiates. The devil is a Christian creation and has nothing to do with wicca.  I also learned that there is the horned god that was stolen from paganism and misrepresented. 

Wicca is a spiritual path you will never stop learning (like in life generally). Wicca is adaptabe to suite you. 

 Some wiccans/witches have more than one goddess and god that they work with and give thanks to. the goddess is the point of focus and the god is her co-creator. 

 Wiccans respect the earth and need to have balance both physically and spiritually.

I have been studding wicca for a while now and i still feel a bit unsure when joining in on rituals.

My thoughts on death and the afterlife 

• That you have had more than one live.
• That between life’s you go to the Summerland (heaven)
• Their is good and bad spirits all around us.
• We all have spirit guides (beings that help us through life)

MY BOOK OF SHADOWS

Since i have moved flats. I have not done much wicca but in the last month i have been adding to my book of shadows. My soon to be wife, bought me some new tarot cards as i did not feel connected to my first set. 

So late last year a few months before we moved i started my new written book of shadows - i haven't really added much to it since i moved but i am slowly building it up.  My hand writing is quite bad, it takes me longer to write things. I also have to make sure i don't get my words around the wrong way. I can't draw and make it artistic like the ones on youtube videos but that don't matter to me; other people won't see it unless i show it to them. 

My book of shadows is a note book, A4 size, about 500 pages and has moveable deviders with pockets. I printed of my cover, and used prick-stick to attached it to the front of my book.  Its white with a pentacle in the middle, on the top left is a triquetra, on the top right is a triple spiral, on the bottom left is yin and yang and on the bottom right is a triple moon.

I have five sections. I am currently using three of them one for general information one for my thoughts and feeling and one for rituals and rites (but i have only got one at the minute).

I've got my book protection, wicca rede, my deities, elements,and information on sabbats 

I still have a lot to add mostly ritual and rites and possibly some spells. 

Till Next time
