Hello everyone. I am brand new to this. I’m almost 50 years old and I finally feel like I am in the right place for the first time in my life. I’m a incredible empath who has always been able to feel people from around the globe. I am trying to figure out what to do and how to learn and grow. I have other abilities but don’t know how to tap into them yet. I am thrilled to be on this new journey with my new family.

Yay welcomed. I just turned 49 and only this year started to really focus on my empathic abilities. I knew how to shield myself but i wasn’t using it for good to help others. So I’m stepping into that now myself. Very happy I found this community. Theres so much good knowledge here and the other members have been great. Hope to get to know you better as you grow as well.

Hi, @Fleurith-Dawnpetal! I’m Amethyst from Southern West Virginia. Welcome to the forum! 
It’s lovely to have you here! I think there are quite a few things on the forum for empaths, but what comes to mind at first is Grounding and Centering, so you don’t have problems.
I’m sure you’ll continue to grow and I hope you share what you learn with us! I’m looking forward to getting to know you!

Hello @Fleurith-Dawnpetal,
Welcome to the forum! I’m Bry, one of the moderators and an Eclectic Witch. Thank you for sharing your lovely introduction, it’s very nice to meet you 
It sounds like you’ve been developing your talents as you become aware of them, and there is still more to tap into - that’s exciting! I hope you’ve been finding plenty of relevant resources around to help you with your learning. There are a lot of resources on the main Spells8 site as well as here in the forum.
If you can’t find something you have a question about, no fear! Feel free to start a new topic in the Q&A category. The wisdom of the coven is, perhaps, the greatest resource of all - and it’s right at your fingertips 
Make yourself at home! Blessed be.

Merry meet @Fleurith-Dawnpetal and welcome!
My name is Kat, and I’ve been practicing the craft for over 30 years. My practice is rooted in a blend of nature magick, green magick, and elements of hedgecraft. I work closely with the natural world, drawing inspiration from plant spirits, animal spirits, and liminal spaces. My interests include herbalism, gardening, and divinatory practices like tarot, throwing bones, and Lenormand.
There is a wonderful search function that will help you dig for more information in the forums!
We’re glad to have you here. Make yourself comfortable, explore, and feel free to ask questions!
