I can't even begin to count the amount of times that I've attempted to start blogging and failed miserably. Maybe this will be another one of those times. Maybe it won't. I'm hoping that this one will stick.
I started practicing Wicca sometime last year. It was off and on for a while, musing on why I was doing it, how, what the implications of practicing it were, whether I was up for the challenge of learning all of these new and intricate vocabularies and chants and rules that weren't really rules. I'm still learning and I'm still only tentatively calling myself a Witch and I'm still only tentatively practicing anything. However, the truth of the matter is that I have never found anything that has spoken so true to me; that has felt so completely right to me. That is why I wanted to start this blog and that is why I started practicing and that is why I am going to continue trying because I want to hold onto this small something that makes me feel so good inside.
As way of introduction, I'm a sophomore at a small alternative college in the Midwest. I'm going on 20, I identify as queer (both in gender and in sexuality), I'm polyamorous, I'm a dog person, I have a rough time dealing with my mental illnesses, I spend an exorbitant amount of time watching TV shows that I don't have time to watch, I have an ESA (emotional support animal) dog named Yoyo who lives with me at college and doubles as my familiar and also my soulmate, I'm a writer, activist, advocate, human.
Hello!
I'm planning on writing a lot about my experience in Witchcraft on this blog, but I also want to keep it open to musings about mental health things that might be on my mind, thoughts about my relationships (platonic or otherwise), my dog, my gender and sexuality, and probably other things too.
Most I will focus on Witch stuff, tho.
Hopefully I'll focus on anything at all.
Here's to a successful blog.
