Personal Bio

I am 56 years old and have been around Wicca for most of my life. I have been a Solitary Practitioner for a long time.

Deities – I worship the Goddess and the God.

Green Witch - The essence of who I am. For me this encompasses Earth Power and Natural Magic. This would include Kitchen, Cottage and the use of Herbs, Oils, Incense and Candles.

Intuitive and Meditative magic - Sensing and tuning into the energy within and around me and casting my will into the universal force that make up existence.

Lunar Cycles and Magic - The Moon exerts gravitational energy and forces on the natural world. This energy stirs our oceans and influences life on earth. Each phase of the lunar cycle offers unique energies that I can attune with for specific magical goals. Many of my practices are performed while the Moon is in the sky.

Crystals and Minerals - In much the same way that older radio receivers and transmitters use crystals to modulate frequencies by converting energy into electrical vibrations crystals can be used in magic to focus energy and direct it. Different crystals have different properties.

I am not a teacher, I am always learning. By all means message me, I enjoy communicating with those that are serious about their beliefs. I am open to making suggestions only when it is asked for and can only pass along what works personally for me. How that translates to you depends on your own personal journey.

Blessed Be.


***Personal Bio***

My Mother grew up in the Unity church. It is a denomination which believe that all religions hold truth as long as they support the greater good in humanity. When she went to collage in the late 1960's and early 1970's she became a Hippie and an activist. She later evolved her spirituality to embrace Wicca. My father was a High School Physics and Chemistry teacher and had a very scientific outlook on life. I kind of grew up with this duality as part of my childhood.

When I was in my 20's and going to collage in the 1980s I was also wrestling with what our society told us a man should be and the fact I am gay. I met a wonderful woman at that time and we became close friends. She followed the principles of Wicca and had a beautiful soul. She was one of the first people I told about my sexuality and she helped me come to terms with this. It was through her that I also began to understand the duotheistic nature of the Goddess and the God, something I had not picked up on from my mother as her beliefs focused primarily on the Goddess alone.

My beliefs are rooted in science, thanks Dad. This is how I comprehend the forces in the Universe and the duotheistic existence of the Goddess and the God. I accept that 13.5 billion years ago the Big Bang event occurred. Prior to this all of time, space and existence was condensed to an incredibly dense point of matter that in a microsecond exploded and blasted out all of the elements of the Universe. If that wasn't a divine event then please tell me what is.

Everything that makes up the Universe is a product of this Cosmic event. From the farthest galaxy to our own star. The world we live on and all the life that surrounds us. Everything down to the smallest of particles are all elements of the Cosmos that was born out of this event. As Physics has revealed it is energy that exists on the subatomic level that binds all of it together and this energy is dynamic!

The energy that binds all the elements of existence together can be influenced. Science has demonstrated this and the Universe has been doing it long before we came along. We, as conscious beings, can influence this energy. By entering a deep meditative state of mind filled with purpose, intent and direction it is possible for us to influence energy. From our meditative states using tools and rituals to aid us we can collect, form and direct energy to effect change. It is my personal belief this is how our magic is generated and manifests. The energy of the Cosmos is a vast and roaring river. All our efforts to influence this energy is just a trickle. I truly believe if our efforts are done in harmony with the flow it can be specifically focused to effect change.

An ye harm none, do what ye will.

I think this is where mainstream religions get it partially right. Through meditation that is considered an act of prayer individuals or congregations can sometimes influence energy, though I doubt they would consider it magic. Still I thoroughly believe it is the ancient beliefs that got it right.

Where life exists in the Universe there also exists the force that make life possible. Concentrations of energy without which there would be no life. The feminine from which all life flows and the masculine to propagate that life through her. The Goddess and her consort the God. There are also other concentrations of energy that are of a benevolent or a malevolent nature and then there are others that are neither of these but exist simply because they are a part of nature.

Over the last 30 years that I have been following the principles of Wicca my beliefs flow strong or ebb weak depending on how the rational part of my mind conflicts with the yearning of my soul but I am only human and I feel this duality is something we all have to contend with to some degree.
