Hey Dan!
Is it ok if I call you Dan The Man? I’ve always wanted to know a Dan so I could say that 
What kind of belief systems? I love to learn! I want to know more!
I see that you like to meditate too! I just started meditating. I meditate with Crystals! I’m a Crystal fanatic! I meditate twice a day. I’m slowly building up how long I can meditate, but right now the longest I have meditated has been about 8 minutes. I’m being patient with myself.
Nice to meet you!
Jacqueline
Jayne!
I’m so glad that you and Eric found each other again! I’ve heard of these types of love stories before! Sometimes you have to work on yourselves before you can make it work and it sounds like that is what you both did! I am so happy for you both!
I completely understand about paying an arm and a leg four housing! I have been living on my own since I was 19! Moved to Brooklyn when I was 19 because I was going to Pace University in downtown Manhattan! It is super expensive in Brooklyn. I lived in Park Slope. It was one of the upcoming neighborhoods! I moved around a lot when I came back to New Jersey, but I’ve been where I am now for eight and a half years! After living in the city I realize how grateful I am for the peace and quiet, the birds 
, the stars 
, the moon 
It is just so quaint here! I grew up behind a highway 30 minutes from here so it took getting used to, but now I love it!
Jacqueline
Artemisia!
I knew that we had a connection!
I am an INFJ-T Personality Type! Did you know that only 5% of the population has that Personality Type:double_exclamation_mark:
I grew up Roman Catholic too! I went to Church and I always thought it was a bunch oh hooey! I’m like are these people serious with this crap? I always knew I didn’t belong there.. but I still went because I needed a faith.
You are very close about Zeus! He is a Siberian Husky! He was so happy when we woke up this morning at 6:15 and it was a little cooler out! (We have had a heat wave) I opened the door and he’s been laying outside on the balcony ever since . Well we did go for our walk of course too, but a Siberian Husky that loves to sunbathe have you ever heard of such a thing? He cracks me up!
I don’t talk to my mom anymore! I spent two days with my family last week and actually ended up in the hospital with chest pains! I had been doing so well too! I had a really bad panic attack! I couldn’t see, I got nauseous, dizzy, light headed. I was literally screaming. Zeus was howling and running around. I had to call an ambulance! We were sitting at the bottom of the steps waiting with the door open and me screaming from the pain. I’m trying to spend as little time with my family as possible. I’m going to do a cord cutting with my mom. I’m hoping to move away from my dad within the next two years and then do a cord cutting from him too and my siblings. They are all just so toxic!
I’m really glad I found this community! Timing is everything! My spell worked! I cast it two days ago!
Jacqueline
Sure. That is something that I’ve been tagged with since High School
Well… all of them. Obviously not all at once. It is one of the things that falls under the Chaos umbrella. Since there are many, many thousands it is meant to be lifelong.
Here is something I posted months ago:
I follow what many do with Chaos. Yes, working with a deity is working with a belief. I believe in belief (oops… slight Chaos contradiction but Hel is in the details). A million (billion) people believing in something and getting good from it can’t be ignored. I admit that I can’t wrap my mind around some things but most popular belief systems have lots of good in them and lots of warts (especially with Dogma which is a no-no for Chaos practice )
The end game on this approach is to be aware of what is out there. Discussions about whether there are many spirits, one spirit or no spirit but just energy are salient and build awareness of the whole approach/picture. Are They All The Same?
Chaos, to me, is a system to explore those ideas. It is ‘OK’ to connect to a belief, or spirit, or deity, or energy if that blows your knickers up 
. It does not practice exclusivity. My approach does have warts but that is common with all systems.
Dan The Man!
This is SO INTERESTING!
Thank you for this! I really appreciate it and appreciate you!
Knickers Ive obviously heard of the word Ive just never spoken to anyone who has used it before My cousins are from Surrey but they never used the word knickers in front of me! Thank you for the laugh! I think it is a much better word! Maybe I should use it next time
Jacqueline
I like the phrase “My karma ran over my dogma.”
Some don’t like the word karma, but the phrase is fun.
Georgia!!!
Hey!! Thank you so much! It’s so nice to meet you!!!
Jacqueline
Hi Bry!
Thank you so much for the kind words!! I really appreciate it! Your support really means a lot to me!!
Thank you for the tips too! I already feel at home here! I’m over the Moon 
right now!
You have really beautiful Energy. Sometimes I can read Auras and I’m getting a Pink Aura for you. Does that sound right? I always like to ask!
Blessed Be,
Jacqueline
I still use “don’t get your knickers in a twist” if someone is getting all out of sorts over something.
I admit, I had a little giggle when I read it in Dan’s post too.
Jayne!
Have you ever seen Bridget Jones???
I immediately thought of that movie 
Yes, I saw it with my sister on a visit back home many years ago. So funny!
Actually I believe that a new one is / or about to come out if I’m not mistaken!!! A few years ago they had a Bridget Jones Baby that was funny 
!! I can’t imagine what this next one would be like! There are three now! I would definitely watch this next one. I have to look it up now lol.
I think you’re right. I have only seen the first one. Haven’t seen the others.
And the funniest thing - Rene Zellweger was born and raised in Texas, where I am now! LOL. I didn’t know that when I saw the first movie and never would have guessed. She nailed the English accent.
OMG REALLY ??? Wow 
!! Never would have guessed that?
Omg I just looked. Yes! The new one is coming out this year! All of the original cast is in it! We have to go see it and then talk about it after we each go to see it I haven’t been to the movies in years!!!
The pleasure is mine.
Yay! I’m happy to hear that you feel at home here. The coven community is blessed to have you with us 
That’s very kind of you - and yes, pink resonates! I’m actually wearing a pink shirt right now 
I’d say it suit my current mindset and moon perfectly 
Well read!
Lots of love and many blessings
Welcome to the family
@Selena-Paloma !
I’m Airam from Greece and I’m glad you’re with us!
Have a nice stay!
