Do you have a magical/Pagan name? No, but I will when I’m initiated into my Tradition.
What does it mean? It’s not applicable at this time.
How did you find Paganism? To be honest, I found it when I was heavily into my New Age phrase. I honestly don’t remember, but I think in the New Age section in Chapters.
How long have you been practising? Actively, for seven or eight months or so. I’m a student, so yay newb! I’ve been reading up on it for fifteen years, though.
Solitary or group practitioner? . I practice with my peers while in class, but otherwise, I’m a solitary. I’m hoping to start a coven when I gain more experience.
What is your path? Wiccan lessons, but leaning towards Asatru. For the most part, I’m eclectic.
Are you out of the broom closet? Yup!

Who is your patron God? I don’t have one, but I’m really interested in Loki and Odin at the moment. Pan and Cernunnos have a special place in my heart, as well.
Who is your patron Goddess? I don’t have one yet. I haven’t connected to any of the Goddesses due to personal issues.
What Gods do you worship? I usually call about Pan, Cernnunos, or the Lord. I did call upon Odin once.
Do you fear darkly aspected Gods/Goddess, or rather respect them? No. I’m attracted to them, to be honest. I think that’s why I like Pan and Loki so much, as well as Morrighan and Kali.
Do you worship the Christian God? I’ve tried, several times throughout my life. I can’t. I just can’t connect.
Do you ever worship animals? No, but Shamanism is very interesting to me. Animal Totemism is something I’m reading up on right now.
Or plants? One step at a time, my friend. But, I’m not opposed to it. Maybe later, when I’m more comfortable.
N A T U R E
Do you regularly commune with nature? I’m trying to find the time.
Ever walked barefoot in the woods? Yes, but it was more from a camping trip and I couldn’t find my shoes in the dark. Still, I love the woods and I’d like to have another camping trip, for a more spiritual journey.
Taken a camping trip just to talk to nature? Negative.
Describe the moment you felt closest to Mother Earth? I had been really stressed for months, slightly depressed. It was night time, and my room mates had gone to bed, but one. My friend was out with me and I told him I needed to be meditating for a few, but he was welcome to watch from a distance. I didn’t have shoes on, and as I sank into the grass, which was slightly wet from the rain prior, a calm came over me. It was stunning. I just soaked up the energy the Earth was giving to me and I must have stayed like that, still and silent, for ten minutes.
Do you have a familiar? No, I do not.
Have you ever called upon the powers of an animal in ritual? No, not until I study a bit more, I think.
Or a plant? See above.
Do you hug trees? Yes. On a whim, without embarrassment. I love trees and show them that by hugging. I always feel a hum when I do. It’s invigorating.
Give them gifts? I ‘talk’ to them and thank them for being a wonderful presence and giving air.
What is your favourite flower to work with? I don’t work with flowers.
What is your favourite tree to work with? Likewise, I don’t work with trees.
W H E E L . O F . T H E . Y E A R
What is your favourite holiday?. Samhain. Beltane.
What is your least favourite holiday? Christmas. Due to my always working in retail, I can never have the time off to go home to see my family.
Have you ever held a ritual on a holiday? Yes. Samhain. It was quite the experience since that was my first ritual and we only had a month to plan it. We pulled it off and everybody was impressed!
Ever taken a day off work to celebrate a Pagan holiday? Yes.
Do you celebrate Yule on the 21 rather than the 25? I celebrate both since most of the people I know don’t do Yule. I think it’s great, since I get the best of both.
Have you ever felt the veil thin? Yes. I end up not sleeping very well, but when I do sleep, I get vivid dreams. Also, I find it hard to discern between dreams and reality, the dreams get that vivid. It’s akin to deja-vu.
Ever danced the Maypole? Yes I have, and it was fantastic! It felt like we had been dancing for fifteen minutes, when it was only two minutes. It was the strangest thing.
Know what the Maypole symbolizes? The question is, do you? Yes, I do.
How do you usually celebrate the Pagan holidays? Considering I’m still on my ‘year and a day’, I haven’t really.
D I V I N A T I O N
Do you use Tarot? I’m trying to learn, but I’m finding it very difficult.
Do you use runes? I will when I finish making my set. This pagan is very lazy.
Do you use a pendulum? I do have one. It’s just a matter of finding the time.
Do you use dowsing rods? No, and I do not have any interest in learning.
Do you use astrology? Not seriously, no.
Any other form of divination? I use my Oracle cards, and my dreams.
S P E L L S
What was the first spell you did? A binding spell, many years ago, to prevent someone from continuing to harm me.
What was the latest? Well-wishes for my health. I have on going minor-health issues. Back pain, etc.
Ever done a love spell? No. If I did, it would be to strengthen the love that myself and my significant other have for each other.
A job spell? Yes.
A healing spell? Yes.
What was the most powerful spell you’ve ever performed? Not gonna tell.
What deities do you usually call on? I believe I’ve already stated that above.

Dragons? Not really, no.
Nymphs? Mmmmm, no.
Sprites? Yes.
Mermaids? No
Satyrs? Yes and no.
Ever “seen” any of the above? Nope, but I felt a presence of a faery. I’ve also been attacked viciously by a psychic vampire over the course of a year or so. Nasty stuff.
Ever talked to any of the above? Yes.
Ever used any of the above in magic? I’ve asked for their help.
Do you have one of them as a personal guardian? No, I believe not.
R A N D O M
Do you see a rabbit, a man or a woman in the moon? I used to see a man, long time ago. Now, all I see is the Rabbit on the Moon. I have to look hard for the man to see it.
Own a cat? Yes, and she’s been meowing at me off and on all night.
When you meditate, what does your happy place look like? Pleasant. That is something I will not divulge as it’s rather private.
Do you work with Chakras? I would like too.
Do you believe in past lives? Yes.
If so, describe a few briefly: I don’t know about them, though.
Do you have a spirit guide? Yes. But she’s as cryptic as a riddle is.
Is it always love and light? How can you have love and light without hate and darkness?
