Discover

This weekend whilst looking for a gift for Stiffla I wandered into a dark little shop that smelt of Sandal wood.

It was a warm little place with warm lighting and pretty things and books lining the wall.

At a low table on a cushion sat a blond woman, she was barefoot and smiled when I entered.

as I browsed the shelved I noticed that the woman didn't breath down my neck as other shop keepers do in this crime torn country of ours. She didnt hound me with sales pitches and was happy to let me wander as long as I pleased.

This little shop sold candles, insence, crystals, pendants and herbs, cards and all sorts of little trinkets that most of society would frown upon.

I started talking to the woman who cals herself dragonfly and after she had explained a few things to me and done my tarrot card reading I made my purchase.

This weekend whilst looking a gift for Stiffla I baught my first tarrot card deck.

The deck is a deck desighned to empower woman and teach them that they are powerfull and important. I think that it is perhaps this view of a womans place in society that drew me to wiccan culture many years ago. They ,unlike the church, dont just talk about gender equality they actully practice it.

I dont claim to be a wiccan (I believe that one must first learn to be at piece with the world and yourslef), and I dont renounce the Lord either, even though my views of my faith differ greatly from that of garden variety Christians, but I do have a few theories, that I intend to elaborate on in the coming weeks.

I also intend to enlighten people on the subject that is very misunderstood.

So here I embark on another journey of discovery enlightenment and perhaps self healing.
