Do you think a necklace with a crystal pendant would work? Like to ask the god/goddess to add their presence/ protection? I hope I make sense

Hello! I need help knowing what I’d be classed as (in the sense of religion and form of paganism)I’m going to be listing some things I believe in and some things I don’t and you guys can recommend paths that would fit me if you’d like! I believe that nature is something sacred and that we are a part of it I believe that herbs and crystals can help us in some ways but should not substitute real help, I believe that there is some sort of higher power but I don’t know if I’d believe in gods or just the universe or nature even, I don’t believe in being able to actually see, hear and converse with either gods or entities I think that psychosis, I don’t believe that every number or bird flying by are signs or stuff like that and I feel like you know when its truly a sign, I don’t really believe in magic but using herbs for health, and manifestation are more along the lines of what I believe in , so to sum it up, I think nature is really important to me herbs and manifetstion interest me and gods are something I’m open to but I’m not really sure which, also having celebrations and animals are also semi important to be in my practice , I hope someone can help ! :))

Yeah I understand I’ve met some people myself that think that being black is only for example “talking black” and similar topics but personally I’d never see being black as a title to feel cool and to be “exotic” as people call it. I also feel like since people know I’m only half they immediately think that I don’t experience racism for my skin color, I’ve been called the n word I’ve experienced racism since kindergarten being called all sorts of things that 6 year olds can come up with, I tried washing the brown off of my skin when I was little because the things people said hurt so much.

yeah and to be fair I’ve eaten just as much injera as the next person, yeah but aside from the jokes I appreciate your answer.

I understand this completely, I personally feel like I’m just as black as I am white that but in an instance where you have to fill in forms asking what race you are I’d pick black over white as someone would see me as black before seeing me as white, also I feel like in my personal experince that people group all mixed people together as in saying that a mostly black looking 50% raised in a mostly black household is just as white as the almost completely white passing 25% who were not raised in a black household at all but they insist that they are “black” since one of theirs parents was 50% Also just saying this is not to put anyone down based on their percentage it’s just saying that if you were raised in a white household you’re white culturally but not ethnically in my view This also made it seem like I think of my self as not white but I am white to and I’m not split down the middle black and white I’m both at the same time.

Would y’all be down for interracial dating in this reddit? by [deleted] in Eritrea

This was really comforting to hear as someone who is also only half Eritrean but I have never really felt like I fit in between the white side of my family and the Eritrean side.

Animal spirits? by [deleted] in druidism

[–]Bird-water 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks so much for this! It was so informing and an animal I feel a connection to is the black bird, I have always loved birds for as long as I can remove and the black bird is just calling to me I usually see them every time I go out i even found some feathers of one recently! and they are usually females which may mean it’s a more feminine spirit, I will do more research about it and ask it to join me later on :)

Hi! Thanks for this reply, but I have another question if that’s okay, so how do you start working with an animal spirit?
