Good Day and Blessed Be!
When I was younger, I was taught that Wicca is the worship of Satan and his satanic followers in a place that I believe, doesn’t exist. It was drilled into me constantly, that these things they ritualized and followed, were articles of grief and sin. However, I’ve come to understand whilst growing up, that these things aren’t the truth. So I searched, researched, and taught myself that these people, with the religion that I follow now, are kind souls, with warm hearts and open minds.
I decided, with a little from the return of taxes, that I’d take a small shopping trip down into the downtown area of the place that I live, and to my surprise? I found many new age shops, with open doors and welcoming smiles. It was almost liberating, to feel no oppression, or feel shamed. I am happy with my craft, my friends, and I am happy about myself.
Thankfully, I can say that I love the metaphysical and spiritual discovery that I am under-going.
So, in my shopping yesterday, I can say that I found a few things to dress my new alter with, aside from finding a new and improved alter cloth. There are things now that I am able to mark from my small list of items to purchase.
- Statue of the Goddess drawing down the moon.
- Healing stones and Quartz crystals.
- Sage.
- Necklace, shaped like my new statue.
The day, was a good, and blessed day, as I hope everyone else had, in all honesty. There is still a lot more, like books and other objects that I need to collect, but slowly and surely. If anyone has suggestions, I’d love to hear them.
Blessed Be! ♥
