Welcome, @CrystalJohn and Merry Meet! I’m Feathertip, from SE Michigan - although I lived in the Atlanta area for nigh on 30 years. We like to say Merry Meet, but we could also give you a Southern welcome by asking, “How’s your mama and them?” 
I love Atlanta!
I’m a lifelong pagan, and focus my practice on working with Nature and all her critters. I love growing and working with herbs. I practice Yogic meditation and use Lenormand cards for divinity.
Don’t hesitate to ask any questions about anything - though if you’ve been quietly with us for awhile you probably know your way around here pretty well. I’m looking forward to seeing you around the forum and getting to know you. Enjoy your time here!

Hi John! I am water. It’s nice to meet you and I hope you’ll explore everything on this site. There is a plethora of information for you to read and experience and a LOT of amazing people to help you.
I’m also new here, but I’ve been a pagan/witch since childhood. I was merely looking for a place to call home and apparently I found it. Everyone in here is amazing!
May you be blessed, be safe, and be yourself. Also: be proud of who and what you are and revel in being the best you that you can be!
All my best for you!

Greetings to all that have greeted me, and have made me feel so very welcome so quickly!
I have been an avid plant and crystal fan since childhood, and am just learning how to translate that into my path. It was there already, and I did not know it! I suppose it would make me a Green Witch/ Earth Witch, but we will see how this goes! I rent my home, but have an outdoor garden area which this year is going further into the witchy realm. Lavender, rosemary, mugwort, artemisia, leopard’s bane, rue, mint, thyme, basil. Not to mention a large assortment of flowers! Hope it all comes to fruition this year.
Thanks again for the warm wishes!

Super Sunday John,
Spring is bringing up much talk about plants. Maybe my connection with rocks instead is because I’m right next to the Mojave Desert (Vegas, Baby, Vegas)
Everyone’s gardens sound fabulous!

That’s how I was. I picked up crystals from all sorts of vacations. Different Bob Evans and rest area gift shops had them. I lost some of them through the years, but I still have a few, and a sand dollar my Dad gave me. Very pentacle looking. It’s amazing how things you do as a kid come back to us.
