Witches Weekly

The Start

When did you first realize that the pagan path was for you?

I've always been intrigued by the 'alternative path'. I was raised in a Christian home and went to Christian schools all my life. I graduated from a Christian highschool. Even back then I felt drawn to Witchcraft. At the time, I didn't even know there was a religion called Wicca.

When in the New Age section of my bookstore in September of 2004 I saw a book that intrigued me. It was called, Wicca For One by Raymond Buckland. I looked at , and put it back. After I left, I thought about nothing but going back and getting that book. I finally went back (about a week later), bought it, and read it cover to cover. I realized that Wicca was definately for me.

I bought more books, researched online and read everything I could get my hands on. I did my self-dedication / initiation on December 10, 2004. This coming Sunday I will have been a practicing Wiccan for two years! I'm so excited!

I still read everything I can get my hands on and study all the time. I enjoy learning anything and everything regarding my path.
