I'm home. Hello!

As a child I was drawn to things others were not. As a teen, people called me the witch and took the mickey, because I took an interest in things associated with witchcraft. As a young adult, a colleague introduced me to paganism and I took an interest for a little while, but never immersed myself in anything. I saw meaning in things but didn't really know myself what was what, so much information it was overwhelming. I've always been drawn to nature and inspired and calmed by it.

Recently having experienced the second worst stress of my life, I reconnected with myself, got out into nature, began doing more of the things I enjoy and cast a spell for something that was bothering me. I did that quite out the blue and had no idea why or even if I did it right. I scared myself daft so I googled and was brought here, so I've had my nose in the resources, and followed a few recommended witches on YouTube for a little while, absorbing what information I can.

Last night I had a ritual bath. Today I decided to set some intentions to manifest something that will help to benefit me in the short term, but many others in the long term. Stuff it, I thought. Can't do any harm really. Let's try it.

I've just been out to buy candles, listening to meditation music on the route. One colour I really wanted was not in the shop. Standing in line at the checkout... there it was. Candles in the right colour. On my way home, I started seeing many things in the colour related to the intention I want to set. I've passed them plenty before and never noticed them. I gave thanks. But that's how life has always kind of worked. The right thing at the right time when I really need it. But only when I need it, never when I just want it. I don't have much but I have what I need.

I can't really describe it, but it was in that moment I felt, I have come home. This is me, its always been me and its about time I embraced it.
