Questions to ask yourself

Thanks LVX, I just hope it might help.
Oh and thanks for letting them know the other more common term. I didn't get to see you did that until after the I posted it too. :)

oops I ment Scientistm, sorry I had that in my head cuz I was going to ask you what that ment. :P

Those are good questions for anyone to ask themselves before they commit to a life-changing step. I had also listed some others and an exercise I use with my own students. You can find the thread at http://www.spellsofmagic.com/read_post.html?post=487749

I remember that one :) It was a great post.
I posted some book titles to help keep the post new. :)
Glad you put the link here for others to find it easier.
Thanks

Honestly I feel these could apply to more than just practitioners of Wicca if we ignore the question about the God and Goddess since, that's mostly a Wiccan belief.

But overall - a great idea on questions to ask oneself.

Here is a suggestion that another member mentioned, which is to ask everyone to post their answers to questions 1-3 here (4 & 5 are to personal). It would be great to see what everyone hopes to gain and learn in their path.

So please post your answers to questions 1-3 if you would like to share.

Thanks.

The questions again are:

Q1: What does being a witch mean to me?

Q2: What do I hope to achieve and learn?

Q3: What do I fear about following this path?

These are mine, what are yours?

A1: Being one with nature and myself.

A2: I hope to achieve inner peace and tranquility. I hope to learn more about myself and learn how to help others with natural ways.

A3: My family accepting me for the who I am (a witch) and in my area it is still looked down on by Child Protective Services for being a witch, so I do fear for my youngest who is only 12yrs old that the wrong person will find out and jepordize his ability to stay with us (which is why I have not come out as publically as I would like to just yet.)

Please post your answers here too. It would be great to see how everyone views these and how they feel about their faith/religion. Thanks :)

1. To grow within 2. A connection with the Goddesses and gods, learn all I can and help others as best that I can. 3. That my family and friends won't understand why I have chosen this path.

This forum was a creative idea:) 1. using energy magick and being one with nature 2. understand myself and help others, be one with nature 3. judgmental people and being accepted by the community and my family 4. Goddess and God play moderate part in my life. 5. divine is the universe and being one with it
