I've been trying to think...

I've added to my three other blogs already, and I am trying to think now what gem of wisdom I can contribute to this blog. It's hot though, and I am tired, so I haven't much of a brain right now.

There we are... the topic of why you shouldn't do Magic(k) (or blog ?) when you're tired or run down.

Or equally... the topic of why there are so many ways of spelling M-A-G-I-C in use now and what the variations all mean !? Maybe I should just spell it W-I-T-C-H-C-R-A-F-T and be done with it ! Did you notice, by the way, that the URL is spelled wrong for this site ? Not a deliberate mistake, just a slip up.


I have an all-day headache right now and I am going gaming this evening. Not good. I loathe this hot weather. Time for more cold water and (legal) drugs.

I don't do (illegal) drugs, by the way. Never have, not even 'shrooms. A friend (who smokes) once commented that I was already way out there and didn't need to do drugs. As a witch I like to be in control of my practises; if I experience 'something' I like to know it wasn't just a drug-induced hallucination.

'Substances' have formed part of some Magical practices for an awful long time, I know. I just don't see the need for me to subscribe, I can achieve an altered state in other ways that to me are more meaningful.

There we go, I found something to write about after all... time to go now and get ready for my game.

Who I am and why my blog is here

Welcome to my blog. I am a surburban witch and I hope you will enjoy your visit. Right now I am not sure what I will use this space for, since I do subscribe to the idea of 'To Know, To Will, To Be Silent'. At the same time, we all like to stroke our egos from time to time, to express our personal opinions and to take our hobby horses for a few turns around the block.

I came to Witchcraft via various other religious practices. I was raised a Baptist, evolved into a Buddhist, found myself through Wicca and have now realised that all along I was travelling through the Shadowlands of Witchcraft.

I have witchy friends and non-witchy friends. I have a non-witchy partner. I have no children, nor do I want them. I prefer dogs to cats and words to weapons. I prefer Evans to Crowley and Buffy to Star Trek.

This is a place of Respect, and anyone posting rude, hateful or disparaging things, or otherwise behaving in a manner I personally deem inappropriate or unacceptable will find there words removed post haste.

If you have questions, ask them. If you have wisdom to share, feel free to share.
