My Beliefs
What do I mean when I say that I’m a witch? It shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone who has faith, that is a difficult thing to explain even to themselves. We take faith for granite when it is a mainstream religion like Christianity and Judaism, even Buddhism. These things have specific doctrines that [...]

Things I do every day- that make me feel better
I am a creature of habit. I know this. I even acknowledge that my catholic upbringing and its constant ritual makes me feel comforted, even when I am an earth-based witch.

Being a nerd before nerds were main stream and before literally every comic book and movie was refranchised and sold to studios it was kind of essential.
