Hello everyone. I go by Dee and it’s a pleasure to make your acquaintance. Just joined Spells8 and looking forward to learn about Wicca and the craft. I recently began my journey into witchcraft once again. I used to follow it when I was younger and than just stopped. I recently been getting signs and feeling a powerful draw to begin studying the craft again. So here I am.
I want to say I started again back in April of 2020 in heap of the Corona pandemic. Been reading many books by Lisa Chamberlain and learning as much as I can. I’m still in the process of getting my altar together but have actually performed a couple of moon-spells and been making moon-water every month.
I love that this site is well constructed and perfect for helping get everything right. Even though I’ve been reading a lot of material, it still gets somewhat confusing on where to begin. I reckon to much information at once lol…
I also started a course in Herbalism ad well, which has been great and loving it
Anyhow, I apologise for the lengthy introduction.
Looking forward to this new path/ calling I’m heading towards
Merry meet Dee it’s nice to meet you! I’m Krissie and I have been here since July 26, 2020. I have a couple of books coming by her and I have also read some books by Scott Cunningham that are really good. I like the way that he writes.
I think you will find yourself right at home, everyone here is very helpful and supportive. I hope to talk to you soon!
Merry Meet Dee! Long Intros are great, I never know if I’m sharing too much or not enough, your’s is perfect.
Pleased to meet you, and looking forward to conversing with you more.
Blessed Be,
I’m glad to hear you’re ready to keep exploring Wicca and witchcraft!
I like the writing style of Lisa Chamberlain, she makes everything easy to understand. What book did you read?
Thanks for your introduction! Feel free to comment on any topic you like. If you have a connection to any deities, this week’s challenge is about that so you can share it with us!
Thank you Krissie. It’s a pleasure to meet you. I subscribed to Kindle unlimited during the start of the pandemic for 2 months free and remained subscribed to it…I will check him out.
Awesome! If I think of any others I will let you know. I know that in the online courses it has suggested readings and that’s where I got the recommendation. Right now I am reading The Spirit of the Celtic Gods and Goddesses; Their History, Magical Power, and Healing Energies by Carl McColman and Kathryn Hinds.
Welcome! Hey, I’m from NY too! I live in the Hudson valley, Dutchess county. But I’m moving in October, not out of NY unfortunately. Lol anyway glad to have you here!
Hi Dee… Its a pleasure to meet you. I too was a little lost on where to start, but finding this site has given me a place to speak my mind. The people here have such beautiful souls.
Thank you, Francisco, a pleasure as well! Oh boy, I’ve been reading so many of them! Recent read is “WICCA, finding your path” But what’s funny is while reading her book I stumbled across your site Spell8. (A YouTube video) I felt so at ease! I’m learning that everything is connected and that the universe will help you out if you trust it. Like you say her way of writing is so simple and she explains everything perfectly.
Grateful to be here and keep on learning!
Thank you for having me.
Blessed be .
It’s wonderful your practice has called you back- and we are very blessed to have you join us! I know there can be a lot of information all at once, but it seems like you are doing a great job finding your way already! If you feel a bit unsure, a great place to begin is the Wicca Self-Initiation:
You may already know some of the material covered, but the initiation can help you to get your footing and feel grounded as you continue to learn and strengthen your practice! I also recommend browsing the forums for any particular topics of interest- there are many talented witches here with lots of advice and tips to share! Feel free to jump in on or create any new topics as you wish
Like Francisco mentioned, we have the Weekly Challenge, and you are also warmly invited to the Weekly Group Ritual (happening today- feel free to jump in and join for a communal cup of tea!)
It is truly a pleasure to meet you, Dee, and I’m looking forward to talking with you more!
Thank you for the advice! Pleasure to meet you as well! Yes started from the Wicca self-initiation and working my way around. But plenty of great info and everyone so generous with their advice! Already feel very welcomed!
Thank you!
