More about me

I’ve always been interested in the history of witches but never explored it deeply. Since childhood, I’ve been open to other realms, faeries, and the energies I sense around people and in nature, often feeling an inexplicable connection to the mystical and unseen. In my games I was always a kind witch who helped the people in my village. Interestingly it was always a cup of tea I gave to help with their problems.

In my early teens, I discovered Dennis Wheatley books about the Occult, which opened up a whole new world of fascination for me; I devoured his books about the Devil, worship, and various rituals, eager to learn more about these mysterious practices. Each page was an adventure, diving deeper into the arcane traditions and beliefs that surrounded the supernatural, it was also frightening which I guess was part of the attraction, however, that fear has remained, although I believe the Devil is a Christian construct the dark side of the path or baneful magic still holds a fear for me which I believe is a useful thing as all magic should be be in balance, a useful message from Sally Walker of Mama’s Magic and Mojo

I was particularly captivated by concepts such as astral projection, not to be confused with “Path Walking” and reincarnation, both of which promised a connection to realms beyond our mortal existence. The idea of exploring the astral plane while my body lay asleep filled me with wonder, while the thought of past lives beckoned me to consider my own existence in a broader context.

I knew nothing of Wheatley or his life, yet his evocative storytelling seemed to bridge the gap between my reality and the fantastical world he portrayed, sparking a lifelong interest in the mystical and the unknown.

Over the years, I’ve had a fluctuating spiritual journey; for instance, I was really into crystals for a time and would meditate with them regularly, allowing their energies to envelop me and fill my surroundings with a tranquil atmosphere. I used them in various ways, including during my work with clients, where I would carefully select specific stones to enhance the healing process and promote a deeper emotional release. Additionally, I made it a ritual to cleanse my space between clients, ensuring that each new session began with a clean slate and positive energy flowing throughout the room. However, as time went on, I gradually put them away, though I cannot remember why; perhaps it was the demands of daily life or a shift in my focus toward other spiritual practices that led me to set them aside, leaving me with a sense of nostalgia for the moments when I relied so heavily on their presence.

For a while I felt drawn to oracle cards. While browsing in a shop I felt compelled to buy a set, “The Faeries’ Oracle by Brian Froud, I loved the art work and felt very drawn to them. I studied their meaning from the book that accompanies them and then developed my own interpretations based on my connection with them. I only ever used them for myself, but again I set them aside as my interest grew.

Eventually, I was initiated into level 1 Reiki, where I learned to channel healing energy, studied the chakras to understand the flow within me, and more recently, began to research the law of attraction, exploring how our thoughts shape our realities. However, last year I went to Haworth, and something changed for me. I felt all the past experiences I had with my spiritual journey had culminated into one pivotal moment; it was as if the universe aligned, and I knew I had to explore witchcraft and the old ways, seeking knowledge and connection with the earth’s energies. It ignited a passion within me that I had never fully acknowledged, pushing me to delve deeper into the practices and beliefs that resonate with my soul. So here I am, ready to embark on a new path and see where it leads me, eager to uncover the wisdom of the ancients and learn how to harness the powers that lie within and around me.

Take care friends until next time
