hi. i'm `blaise. i go by `blaise.
i'm actually a girl irl. this isn't my main account, but i use this one almost as much. i like brown and green, navy and silver.
i'm a sagittarius. my favorite part of the year is autumn. my favorite part of the day is dusk.
i'm not sure if eclectic paganism is right for me, but this guild is definitely helping out. i'm not big on traditional wicca for a number of reasons and i don't think any one path holds the complete Truth, so it makes sense to me to learn from a breadth of viewpoints and to draw from them what i reason to be True. i've been studying various religions for the past two years after being a diehard atheist.
i'm a senior, and next year i plan to major in philosophy and environmental studies, and perhaps minor in religion. i'm not even done applying for college, so i have no where i'm going, but it's definitely out of state [outside of Texas].
i love philosophy, logic, theology, and sociology. i'm a tree-hugger so helping to keep people from destroying Earth is a bit of a priority for me.
i'm vegan. i am a very serious one, and i am the prez and founder of the only animal rights organization at my school.
i have a variety of mental disorders, and i enjoy or appreciate most of them.
i'm eighteen years of age.

Lotus Poem I always hated the first day of a new class or job or something when they would go around the room and make everyone introduce themselves. I swear I turn bright red and hyperventilate. I guess posting is easier LOL I'm 29, full time student majoring in Art and Education I also substitute teach on my non-class days. I have a six year old daughter and seven year old stepson who are both being raised pagan by myself and my husband. I am an activist and organize benefit events for local women's charities annually. Things I like: sweet tea, yoga, bellydancing, sushi, reading, writing, cupcakes, jewelry, unicorns, rainbow chasing, skirts, bare feet, trees, avocados, learning to knit, purple, white, silver, the moon, mythology, fairy tales, feminism, cello music (wish I could play), art nouveau, candles, funky socks, bubble baths, video games. (there's more...) I have a kitten, Luna, who came to me through a friend who found her as a stray. We are also looking for a puppy but it hasn't come to us yet. I'm scared of the dark, going underwater, and fish. I have been studying paganism for over 17 years now. I was raised in a very hippie environment. There are rumors in my family that a couple generations back we had some witches however we have no conclusive proof, some memories of my mothers, an old photo, and some jewelry that's passed down. When I was about 12 I found a book called Witches by Erica Jong on my mom's bookshelf. It's beautiful, not real accurate or educational but the artwork and poetry is very nice and it spurred my curiosity to learn more. At which time I realized that I was pagan. Before that I had been into catholicism but I realize now it was because of the ritual, the incense, candles, rosaries, virgin mary, and the saints. LOL. I have also been studying dreams for longer than I have been pagan. I have always been a very "active" dreamer and I love dream analysis. I don't use dream dictionaries and act more as a guide to help the dreamer find their own meanings. That was way more than I planned to write smile Guess you caught me on a good day. i totally relate to the roman catholic thing. i was totally into it until i came to terms with the fact that i didn't feel any connection to Jesus. just God, Mary, the rituals, and the rich theology. (:

Sup, I'm Senretsu. This has been my username since I was a kid. And we booted windows 95 through DOS and surfed neopets over our dialup connections. *My favorite season is fall. *I'm 18 and I work in a bowling alley. If I wanted to glorify my job I'd say I was a bartender, as we are partly a bar. *I'm a huge gamer. I'm addicted to EVE & Trickster Online at the moment. * I also make webcomic's and short flash animations. My art site is http://senretsu69.sheezyart.com*I'm half geek and half raving party animal. *I've been learning Japanese for a few years. I wouldn't say I'm fluent yet. *I've done alot of drugs. I still do some. However I've passed my worst phases. *I'm a big religious skeptic but I've been with Wicca for awhile. Not more than a year or two though. *I type at 80 WPM. *I live in Canada, Alberta I think that about covers it. Nice to meet everyone.

hi, im amanda and im new to the guild (obviously).im 14, i live in australia, im a virgo, my life number is 11, my element is earth and i have always like the colour green. i've been a wiccan for around 2 years now. i used to be part of a small group though i moved last year and became a solitary witch (i miss my friends so much). normally i'm a bit shy when it comes to discusions and sharing opinions but i made it my new years resolution to be more confident, so i decided to join this guild. also i have been a bit sleep deprived lately so i tend to easily drift of into deep trails of thought.. i think thats all i have to say in terms of an introduction. biggrin

This is Labores Luna's other account...I'm sort of abandoning it because I only used it to come on the guild, instead I would rather just post with this one =) hope it doesn't cause too much confusion. 3nodding

Hey all! I just came back onto Gaia after years of being away because a friend invited me. I consider myself Wiccan, but also am currently studying the philosophy of Taoism (a little different than the religion). So, been studying Wicca for about seven years, and Taoism for one. My parents don't approve (they're strict Christians), but what can ya do. Anyways, I'm always looking for Wiccan or open-minded groups because there's nowhere else I can talk about it. Blessed be!

Merry Meet! I am a 25 year-old who graduated with a Master's degree in middle grades education back in May and am still unemployed due to budget cuts in the schools around the US. I have always been interested in religions and found Wicca when I was about 11 years old and borrowed one of my mom's books. As I got older I drifted more out of just plain Wicca and now identify as an eclectic pagan. I don't believe that there is one path and that every person should be free to follow what they believe in as long as it harms no one else. I don't live in the most open-minded state, but have been lucky enough to meet friends with open minds and hearts. I enjoy reading, writing (got an editor's choice award from poetry.com and they have published me 2x so far...), crochet, am teaching myself to knit, and like making things in genera. I look forward to making new friends, and to learning many new things! mrgreen

Howdy! I'm Tawnybmw12, Tawnyb for short.
Um... hmm... I'm from Southern California. I'm 17 years-old, and just pretty laid back. Be warned about my rather weird sense of humor, because it comes off as overly sarcastic at times and has gotten me in trouble before.
I play rugby, like the color purple and enjoy cooking, drawing, writing, playing guitar and reading. That last one is how I found Wicca, and developed an interest in it. Honestly, I don't label myself one thing, because I really don't know as much as I would like.

Hello I'm Sarah or for all intents and purposes I prefer to be referred to as Chay and I'm 17. Um... I haven't been practicing wicca for as long as some people, only about one to two years now. I realize fully that I still have a long way to go and a whole lot to learn but that's just part of the experience. As for what I'm like er... well I love music and enjoy any type of bells or stringed instruments. I mostly play my guitar and bass. When I'm not doing my mountains of homework ((hehe I go to a catholic school ironic right? XD)) You can find me either playing my guitar or meditating in my room. Which is always in a constant state of smoky with all the incence I burn ((guilty pleasure can't you tell? XD)) Well I don't want to make people read any more of this extremely long intro so yeah... hi!
