Good morning and happy Sunday! My name is Robin and I’m not sure how I would label myself. I’m not sure I like labels actually but here goes:
I’m a recovering evangelical christian who has had too many witchy things occur to ignore. As a child, I was told I have ESP- although that term has gone out of fashion (it was the 70’s after all) My mother introduced me to palm reading, and self-hypnosis (which I don’t follow) and allowed me to read witchcraft books during my teen years. I ditched all that when I started attending church in my 20s.
I do have some psychic abilities, for example, I “saw” my college-aged daughter get hit by a car three days before it happened. She is fine now, btw. I’ve also prayed over people for protection, and healing and they would be protected or healed instantly. I have incredibly detailed dreams and remember most of them.
I seem to know things about people but I’ve learned to say nothing because it stirs up the angry pot if I expose their motivations. I also see auras, always have -since childhood.
As I said, I’m recovering from being brainwashed in the “church”. I do believe nature can heal us if we allow it. I am currently studying herbalism and plant medicine. I do think I am a healer, so there’s that.
My human offspring are grown, and I co-rent an apartment with my middle child, another baby witch. She was also raised in the church and shocked me (and slightly amused me) when she declared she did not believe in god, heaven or hell. I have come to believe the same.
I joined this site after several weeks of “lurking”. I keep getting drawn back so I decided to join for real. I’m learning, absorbing, and becoming excited to finally find my calling, identity or whatever.
If you’ve read this far, thank you. I tend to be long-winded as I have a lot to say and not many people around to understand. I’m excited to be here and learn from all of you.
Blessed be
It’s nice to meet you!
I’m glad to hear that you and your children are finding your paths! Coming out of an evangelical belief system to something like paganism and witchcraft can be kind of a culture shock of sorts 
so we’re here if you’ve got questions!
and welcome home 
always
And wow, you are incredibly talented! You’ve got some incredible gifts for sure.
magick). Parents, teachers, priests or ministers, and even your bosses expect you to follow a certain path. I don’t think they do it maliciously, but we have been almost programmed, like little soldiers. Do what you’re told.
