Hello, All!! My given name is Tonya but prefer JypsyT in most settings. I think it suits me and is a perfect statement of who I am. Jypsy with a “J” and “T” for Tonya pretty much describes my personality to a “T”!!! 
I like to think that I am an open minded, excited, positive being in this beautiful, vast universe and that my being, along with everyone else’s, is absolutely valid and relevant to make this great, wonderful existence! With everything in the world going to shit, some times it is a struggle to be understanding and accepting of things which causes our own blockages and confusions. The biggest thing with me is overthinking and allowing myself to just let go and be free and accept that it is not up to me to decide the outcome; I just need to flow freely and be in my role, to live and let live, essentially, and just have faith that it will all work out as it should. I truly believe that chaos comes from resisting our natural paths and that we, ourselves, are the cause for most of our distress.
I decided to join this forum and be a part of it actively because I felt like I have been on a scavenger hunt for some kind of solid and because it is the first place I have felt that I may actually belong. Needless to say, I am so super excited to have found this community with all of you even if it is in the digital realm which is constant questionable necessity in my life. LOL Positive, though, is that I have found all of YOU!!!.
I have decided, for labeling purposing and a little more specific clarity on my direction, that I identify with the eclectic witches. Im still deciding if “witch” is the appropriate salutation for me. For over time, people whom have been lucky enough to tune into their true self have been labeled all sorts of names, all of which seem to come with a negative connotation. My point is that I would like to see myself as well as others see me in nothing but love and light. I want anyone, as well as my own person, to always know that whatever it is I am partaking in, it is only for the greater good of my true self, my soul, my surroundings, and just overall for the greater good of our existence. That is my sole purpose and focus in life now to be a loving light for anyone I come in contact with and to try to ensure that my imprint left in this realm is nothing short of Goodness. Getting to this realization has not been easy, and the Universe and I have had our differences as I am sure we all have. But when I lost my mother, my entire being changed. My thought process changed. My soul changed. And now, it is important to me that I continue to grow in my spirituality and that I understand my higher self. I no longer feel that the Earthly part of my existence is of any use to me other than the simple fact we are here.
That may have been a little much for introductions but that Is where I am in my walk. And once again, I feel this is a very solid forum for me to feel some connections that will continue to help elevate life and my soul purpose. Thanks for allowing me to be a part of the group. I look forward to getting to know you all.
Blessed be…
and welcome home
