Good morning to everyone. I live in Buckeye, Arizona USA and I just recently retired and now have the time and energy to focus on my pagan/Wiccan journey. I am a Reiki master and certified hypnotherapist.
I am looking forward to learning all that I can and incorporate the things that I learn.
Thank you for this forum to learn, ask questions and meet like minded people.

Hi! I’m Dan and I study belief systems. Welcome to Spells8. There are lots of areas to immerse in and I find new ones all the time. Jump in and enjoy!
I’m intrigued by your hypnotherapist certification. I do a lot of meditation and I wonder if the concepts behind hypnotherapy are in any way related to deep meditation.
In any case, the coven is a great one and very welcoming. Have fun!
I definitely think they are related. To me it is like the hypnotherapist being your “guide” in the hypnotherapy journey (or a guided meditation with a very specific intention). I love doing it and I have done many sessions over a phone and have had great results for my clients. Have a great day
