Challenge Entry #3 - Magickal Tradition and Pagan Paths

I won’t go into most of my back story again here as I have

• Do you draw on any magickal traditions in your practice? Which one(s)?

I started learning about Wicca when I was first drawn to magick but never was initiated or followed all the rituals. It didn’t quite fit me. I have more of a Greek pantheon practice (with Artemis, Selene and Hekate) but currently exploring more animism and traditional craft in addition to green magick.

• Do you draw on any religions in your practice? Which one(s)?

I have a little of Wicca and some of my Roman Catholicism, but mostly, no. I don’t draw on other religions.

• Do you draw on any spiritual or philosophical influences in your practice? Which one(s)?

Yes, Buddhism, I believe in Karma, I find I’m drawn mostly to nature magick and have been researching local traditions to help connect with the spirits of the land.

• What are the main influences that define your magickal practice?

Main influences I suppose it would have to be nature - the plants, trees, flowers, birds, animals, the sun, and the moon.

• Have you changed paths, traditions, or religions since your magickal journey began?

Absolutely. At first, I thought Wicca was the only way to go, so I started my path there until it no longer fit. I’ve embraced eclectic as a title as I have dabbled in various types of magick but the ones that resonate the greatest are Green Magick and Traditional Witchcraft.
