Though I am no longer a practicing Wiccan, when I found the path it was like coming home. Everything I believed up to that point of my life existed within the frame work of that religion.

I am a witch (not Wiccan, tho I think wiccan, small w, is probably ok) My mother was a witch, my great grandfather was a Comanche Medicine Man. BUT I was not lead in that direction in the first place, my father being Christian. But, thankfully, both prents encouraged me to learn all I could about as many religions as I could in an effort to find my path. I have always had an innate ability to communicate with animals and have always had a deep respect for all in nature. It seems to me that most of the other religions, at least the Abrahamic ones, discourage questions. You are expected to follow blindly and never question. My parents taught me to question everything. And I got the answers I was seeking in witchcraft AND Buddhism. So I practice both.

I m no longer Wiccan, but when I found it I had such an overwhelming sense of belonging and relief, it was like coming home after too long a journey. I had never been able to accept Christianity though being raised in a Christian family. After spending years studying, I have found a path that better suits me, but Wicca is beautiful and does a lot for its followers.

I choose to be a wiccan because it fitted me better that Christianity. I had a hard time believing that there was one all seeing and knowing god.

I feel like I was always Wiccan. It just took me over 40 years to discover a name for what I always was. I am HOME AND AT PEACE now.

Wicca teaches understanding and acceptance of others, it encourages education and doesn't deny science, it allows for your own personal interpretation of absolutely everything (including the exact nature of the gods) except for Harm None and The Threefold Law. It teaches that we need to love and respect nature because we are a part of it, not above it.

Because i came to see the beauty and harmony of nature and wanted to be on a path that revered that.
Because I see the male and female as the harmony and melody of one song.

My studies were more like an eerie remembering, rather than a learning experience. Re-awaking ones spirit is an unmistakable feeling. Truth finds you, and consumes you.
Blessed Be...
