Hi everyone. This is the place to introduce yourself and tell us a little about yourself. I hope that everyone who wonders into this forum will stop by this thread and leave a post. Let us know as much information about yourselves as you feel like leaving, but we ask that you please tell us which path you follow. If you are a biginner and have not found out which path suits you yet that's fine, just let us know. Ok, I look forward to getting to know everyone.

All right, so I've changed my name on here from Jules To Fallen.....but it's still me, and I've been signing everything Fallen anyway so hopefully there will be no confusion. So I'll go first. (haha, I get that oppourtunity because no one else even knows about this place yet).
Anyway, I'm Fallen or like I said earlier The_Fallen_One on myspace. Some of you will already recognise that name as I've done some blogs that were reposted on In The Circle We Conspire. I've been trying to help Gypsy out as much as possible with her page as I think it's a great idea, and when she asked me to host this board I thought it would be a lot of fun, so here we are.
I'm 27 and have been a practicing witch since I was 18. Although I am solitary now I was part of a coven for about 8 years. Although Green Witchcraft has always had a BIG pull for me I was actually trained in Feri, which a lot of you might not have heard of. Maybe I'll explain about it later, but there is information available on the web about Feri if you don't feel like waiting for me to go into it. Now that I am solitary however I might start leaning more towards Green Witchcraft. I have undergone a lot of training, and am a perpetual student.....I feel lost when I am not learning something so therefore I am always trying to learn new stuff.
hmmm, I think that we will have sort of a teachers thread here where we can continue what Gypsy started on In The Circle We Conspire.....but I'm still figuring that out. In don't know what that has to do with me, but it came to me while I was writting this thread so I wrote it out so I wouldn't forget. lol. You'll find I have an odd memory, and you might often find notes to myself in my threads. So please excuse me.
Okay, well I guess that's it for the moment. I'm off to tell Gypsy that I started this place so she can make an announcement about it and the rest of you can join. Can't wait. ~Fallen~

Hi Kathi (boo), welcome to the boards. Let me see, a thread is a topic. So this thread (or topic) is titled Introduction. Scanning the threads is when you are looking for a particular topic or post. Don't worry about your spelling, mine isn't so hot either. You will never be asked to leave on account of spelling, nor will we ask you not to post because of it. None of us are perfect here and we certainly don't expect anyone else to try to live up to the standards of perfection. If you find you are having troubles becoming familiar with the lingo here, or anything else about the boards feel free to message me and I will gladly help you out anyway I can. Thanks, and hope you have fun. Blessed Be, ~Fallen~

Merry Meet, I'm Gypsy Nature is my classroom ...Life's Lessons are my Wisdom, I walk with a Higher Learning to help others. I do truly care about my my world and the Sisterhood of all The Wise-One practitioners. I also work in Aromatherapy and many Herbs to heal the mind and body. I'm an Ordained Clergy Spiritual Humanist in the practice of Spiritual Humanism. I'm a Solitary Eclectic Witch: that Doesn't follow a particular religion or tradition.We study and learn from many different systems and use what works best for each person. I'm also a Kitchen Witch: I practice by home and hearth, mainly dealing with practical sides of the religion, magick, the elements and the earth. I'm also a Ghost Hunter I will also help you with protection amulets that are made from things you have in your home. If you have a problem with a Haunting or Spirits or anything paranormal I can help. I'm a somewhat knowledgeable person on the the occult world and the Metaphysical Realm. I am a very INTUITIVE person, non judgmental and truthful, some friendly advice never hurts. I take what I do very seriously. Witches use common sense and do not share their mysteries with fools. Now so..lite up an incense and candle and try to make yourself relax and enjoy the posting board. Witchcraft is exactly what each Witch makes it to be. It is the craft of the Witch. I'm very powerful in my craft and Casting Spells. So I guess you can call me a Red Witch. Blessed Be

Greetings everyone. I've come to join this board out of respect for a friend...But please do not make any unnecessary assumpations. I'm also here to learn from varities of different people in the Craft and their methods within the Craft.
However, My wiccan name is Osran. But my real name is Randy. I'm a 26 going on 27 years old guy. Tall, Lanky, Average size guy. I'm also a guy that had acquired a disability since birth, Which is a Hearing impairment. Yes, I do know Sign lanuage and I do wear hearing devices. I would appericate it if you would not ask any relating questions to my diabilitiy.
Oh, I've been studying the Craft since 2002, I'm learning as I go by and what not. And I'm eager to start counseling before long. I'm waiting for my teacher to return from her vacation. I'm very excited.
And I do very much concur with Fallen upon the bestowed rules upon this forum. I do agree that bashing other people can lead to alot of unwanted complications. I'll back Fallen up all th way. Well..Nice meeting ya and hopefully we'll converse soon.
Blessed be. Osran

Welcome Osran
I'm glad to see you made it. I think we'll all have fun here and get a chance to learn a lot from each other. I'm not too worried about anyone trashing each other as I am hoping we'll get a nice group of people in here.....but if we have any problems you can be sure that either gypsy or I will handle it quickly. Anyway, thanks for your support (and thanks for your help earlier) I'll talk to you soon. Always, ~Fallen~

I am Rosie a true Wiccan Witch, a White Witch and healer ... I have a natural knack for teas and potions. At one time I was very capable of Astral projection that really freaked out my daughter who told me to stop that.... lol.... but she loves my witches brew when she gets sick. I'm a solitary practitioner when it comes to my craft and wicca rituals basically, I do tarot readings for people but tend to truly freak them out for some strange reason when my future readings come true... I'm attuned very well to Mother Earth and live in an area that allows me to be one with nature and practice in or outdoors without prying eyes which I truly love.
To expand, I've been a practicing White Witch since I was 21 Yrs Old and am now fixing to turn 52, I am of Scottish Decent and tend to lean towards to old Scottish ways and am very successful in the manner of my family. I make runes that are very successful, and am now in the proccess of harvesting my herbs, making infusions, teas & tonics for healing, oils and potions. tis a very busy season Autumn is, so if I tend to not post please be patient with me, Mother Earth can be fickle at Harvest time, especially when the rains tend to be coming and going at their will.
Hopefully I will get to know the others of our circle, I have unexpectdly got to meet personally a new member of our circle, at a local bookstore, when searching for a new book for my recipes and herbal knowledge updating. She's a wonderful lady and seems to be very knowledgable as well. She gets to read all those wonderful books and is very anxious to put that knowledge to use with those who practice.
Blessed Be

Hello, my name is Rob. I am quite new to the craft. I am an 18 year old male, and am still finishing high school. Nightmare is a name I use because that is a nickname people tend to call me by. Uhmm... I'm not sure what I am missing here, I am quite bad at giving introductions to a new group of people, but hey, we gotta start somewhere right?

Merry meet to everyone, my name is Cyndy and I am also a beginner who has yet to actually practice because i feel i have a lot to learn before i do. i have deep respect for the craft in every form as well as all of those willing to come forth. i have been interested in the craft for several years. my earliest interest arose when i was about 13 years old and i began reading and researching spells. i was about to begin practicing when i decided to wait in fear of my own inexperience. i actually left my interest alone for a while and recently it has returned to me telling me that i am ready. so here i am. i have been told that i am a solitary ecclectic because i am interested in learning from several different viewpoints but i truly do not know what i would consider myself yet. i still consider myself just a beginner who will let that come to me later on. i have a hard time practicing where i live because unfortunately there is an abundance of negativity surrounding me. i would like to try something for self protection from all this negativity to begin because quite honestly i consider myself a positive soul but am being drained. so any helpful advice or suggestions would be greatly appretiated. i look forward to everything there is to come. this is a wonderful idea and i thank gypsy and fallen for everything they are working towards. blessed be.

Merry Meet to one & all My name is Ayleen others know me as Estatigua (some call me Tiggy.) This is a serious message & today I will have my serious head on but I do have a rather zany humour & love to laugh but if anyone thinks I am being a pain...Tell me....I can shut up! Hee hee. I am a Solitary Eclectic & enhance my craft from many different mediums. I have belonged to three Covens over the years but now choose to practise alone as in the end the human condition of hierarchy always raised it's ugly head with some members & I had no time for that.It was NOT what I was there for. It's been quite a few years that I have been following my chosen magickal & spiritual path. When young I conformed to what was expected of me all the while knowing I was different & had a alternate outlook on religion & life. Once I broke free from what I knew for me was wrong I allowed myself to grow spiritualy & am still learning my craft every day & will do for the rest of my given life. I have never looked back & am a happy well grounded individual I have a gift for healing & also clairvoyance, making the most of my "gifts". I "feel" & "see" spirits, sometimes this is a rewarding gift, sometimes I would rather have not experienced. I guess I am mostly a red/grey Kitchen & Hedge witch, I have never actually thought of myself with any sort of title. I work from home & have a natural feel for Herbal Magick. I also, like Gypsy, am an ordained Spiritual Humanist clergy member, it is a shame but we are not recognised here in the UK but I travel so have not found it a problem. I am so looking forward to my time on here & interacting. I think it is a fantastic place & so glad I found you through MySpace. (Oooooh poetreeeee! lol)
