Hey, new witch here!
Merry Meet, (you know, I don't say that in real life...)
Hi, I'm Astrayus and I am not exactly new to the Pagan lifestyle. I started studying whatever I could get my hands on when I was 15, which was mainly mythology and one or two books on Witchcraft and Wicca and continued to study off and on, with friends and solitary for a few years. (I'm 27 next month :=o I joined the military and had a crisis of the marriage and spirituality. My ex-husband abused my son and left me for a WoW guildie. And I started to reject everything spiritual. I became somewhat of an asshole-skeptic-atheist and though I'm not terribly proud of that phase, I was able to better develop my own philosophy better and now I listen to my intuition and my inner skeptic to further my craft. (Btw, I love discussing views on deity and am very open if anyone every wants to chat)
Things have really turned around for me lately. The universe has sent me a wonderful man and we're having a baby in January, my son is healthy and happy, and I'll be getting out of the military soon to continue my education and be a stay at home mom for the first time! The worst thing is because of my life trauma and atheistic phase I've fallen so far away from Witchcraft that have to start over from 101. I remember basic stuff, of course, but I have trouble doing things like sensing my energy (let alone manipulating it).
That's why I've decided to join a forum! I hope to connect with other people and learn and grow. If you have read this far, thanks!
