Playing It Safe

The Novel Coronavirus, which has been all over the news, has caused me to not panic but worry about others that could die from the virus. I've been saying my prayers to Bridget and I've also gone out and bought some Elderberries. This is in tablet form and you dissolve it in water. When I get paid I'm buying another box. Playing it safe with your health is something that all, even if their not pagan, should do. Also not giving into fear is another.

This virus will be defeated and life will move on. Let's just hope that we all learn from this.

Returning to Druidry

Yesterday marked one month of being a pagan. This time around I'm posting that I'm restarting my Druid practice. Being a Druid, as well as a witch, is something that I've always wanted to practice. Well except the witch part. I've been a witch for twenty-eight years. I started my Druid practice almost four years ago. However, with all things. I knew that my mother wouldn't support what I was doing.

So, even though I couldn't be active as a Druid, I still believed in what Druid's believe. I still enjoyed nature and just spending time outside. I made little moments last a bit longer. I tried everything to connect with the earth and the energies of the earth. I have learned plenty from being in the broom closet. It's not a place that I want to return to, and I didn't enjoy it. As I continue down this road of being a Druid, and a witch, I look back at the closet that I was forced to be in and slam it shut.

One day, I might actually fill it with what closets are supposed to have. Pillows and blankets.

Returning Back to Open Pagan Practice (1 Month)

Today marks one month that has passed since I've returned back to open pagan practice. It has been a great first month and I've been excited, and happy, to be back. I've returned back to meditation, giving offerings, and having an actual altar. I took over my mother's room last month and turned my former bedroom into a ritual room for my Celtic practice. I'm adding shelving for books and another table for brewing herbs, making tinctures, candles, and salves.

I'm also going to get containers for small stones, bottles of incense, candle colors that go into candles, oils, and scents. This, of course, will take time. But I have plenty of that.

My Mother Passing (1 Month)

Today marks one month that has passed since my mother left this world. It had been a hard month, full of tears, and pain. I took her death harder than I thought but my faith has kept me going. So is my brother, which I'm glad about. These posts won't be long, but that's how I want them to be.
