Teen wiccans

I consider myself blessed. Because my mom is Christian, and my dad is Hindu. I believe in more than one God and I believe in Goddess of the moon. So when I was introduced to Wicca. I felt like I was uniting with family. I started practicing spell writing at age 20. And most of my spells worked. I also made some potions too. I was also introduced to tarot by a New Age store that used to be walking distance from my house. (sadly they went out of business in the Economy fall). I have been practicing Wicca for about 7 years. I read a lot of new age books, and found a spiritual journey. I stopped practicing for awhile because I had my heart broke by my boyfriend going 5 years. I found this site because my brother found a bag of my old spells, and asked me to do a spell for him. Then I Googled the spell. And I was directed to this site. When I found this site. I had a strong awakening inside me. I found friends here. And found a new journey waken inside me. I bought a lot of books. And bought some spell ingredients. And started my own new Book of Shadows. I don't consider myself immature. I knew that I started spell writing again was like my spirit grew a little. I am not your typical stereotype witch.

Sometimes yes. I'm new to Wicca, but I sure do know it's not turning people into frogs and being invisible.

Gosh I feel the same way I really DON'T fit in with
Most kids either I'm only twelve and I'm an every day witch
But I just hate it when people say we are bad people
Because of what they see on tv. This is why I don't tell people. What
I am I told my brother I was a witch he thought I was joking since he is in high
School and he said well that explains why you got too different eyes and he turned it into a joke

I am a 14 year old Wiccan. I take into account that, Yes some teens ARE only doing it for spells, or have a false conception about what it is in general. However, Many of us DO know what we are talking about, what it is we are doing and what Wicca really is. Some of my friends who I have told, Thought that Wicca/Witchcraft was wishing for something and it happens. But when I explained what it was, They were overcome by all of it. They actually decided to become Wiccan. So if you happen to meet anyone who thinks of Wicca/Witchcraft in that sense, Its best just to explain, Rather than rant on at them. If they do ask for those kind of spells, It is obvious that Wicca is not right for them. The main reason I became wiccan was actually because I adore nature. Then I found out about the God and Goddess, and Magick. I was even more overcome and I was fascinated by it. Ever since I was little, I have always believed that there was some sort of power out there. And Yes, I do feel quite offended. Many people just say 'Oh its evil' or 'Read the bible! You are going to go to hell' However, They do not even try to see it from our point of view, nor do they bother to actually research what it is we actually do.

Rant over ;P


Blessed be )0(

Not so much offended it's kind of what most of them think it is they learn and get disappointed all on their own.

I know for me, I'm really young, and new to this, but I started looking into Wicca as an outlet, and a place to belong. I have been trying to learn as much as possible, and then I will decide wether Wicca is right for me. I have always wondered how to know, but I feel most comfortable here, and with Wicca

I am a bit offended, but I see were it comes from. Its the whole...sacredness of Wicca that (some) teens don't get.

Do I believe most are "Misguided goths"?
Yes. I'm most likey wrong, but I cant get over it.
Do I believe their are some (Gosh I can not phrase this any crummier)True believers?
Yes.

Overall, im a bit miffed, but instead of hate, when i have more experienced myself, I will teach them and find those gems that TRULY understand what it means.

I agree. I may have started about two months ago, but it is annoying in many ways.

I'm about 18 and have been Wiccan for a few months. I've been studying Wicca since I "converted" (I've no better term for it since I was agnostic for seven years before I became Wiccan and was raised in a Christian family). I've also learned a little about Wicca at an early age (around 7 and 8 because my mother was Wiccan at the time) and I hate to admit I was only interested in the magick and spells when I was younger. Now I understand that Wicca is a way of life and philosophy and beliefs that I hold close to me, especially since I believed in a lot of the beliefs I have before I was Wiccan and later found out that they were also Wiccan beliefs. I know not to do spells to make people into something they're not or to make them do somethkng they wouldn't normally do; I've known this all my life and it's never sat right with me to hear people do this anyways. I hear that some people want to do negative magick, even those who are wanting to study Wicca and even though I've little to no experience in magick, I still advise against it. I hate it when people ask for those kinds of spells but I hate it even more when people assume that that's what Wicca is about and that that's what Wiccans do. Also, I don't like how some people are going to view me as a stereotypical Witch because I like edgier styles of dress. I've liked edgy stuff longer than I've been Wiccan and I do not mean to stereotype.

Agreed. When I tell people I am Wiccan and they ask me why I don't look goth or call me a satanist it just make me mad. Before you stereotype a religion, learn the facts first.
