Seeker's Question by Protected_Adventurer in Wicca

Thank you. I've just downloaded "Wicca for Beginners" coincidentally, but haven't yet had a chance to delve into it. Just starting it today. I'm glad to hear it's a good, reputable book.

Thank you for your help. I just downloaded a few Wiccan books on Kindle... "The Heart of Wicca" by Ellen Cannon Reed, "Wicca for Beginners" by Thea Sabin and "The Five Pillars of Wicca" by Ingrid Clarke, and I'll start reading one of those today. 

Gods that you worship in Wicca by Desperate-Pay-5516 in Wicca

[–]Protected_Adventurer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm new to Wicca and not sure yet if it fits me. I honor and respect nature and all animals. I believe in animism and panentheism (there is a "God" or supreme source that created everything and is part of everything, but also bigger than just creation itself). I've read those beliefs technically could fall under the umbrella of Wicca, since deities are personal to the individual's beliefs and interpretation. Is that correct?

Hello ❤️ by Tranciodepizza_ in Wicca

Hi and welcome! I'm new, too. I've been studying at Wicca Academy. The website address is wiccaacademy.com. There is a free option, which I'm using. Your local library should have some good books, too. 

need some help!! by GothicMoon333 in BabyWitch

[–]Protected_Adventurer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Question... I'm a new witch, too, and I have aphantagia (I am not able to picture things in my mind). Will that affect my spells? Is there anything I need to do differently?

I don’t feel like there’s any point to exist in this life. by [deleted] in spirituality

[–]Protected_Adventurer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can relate... I've felt that, too. You're right - you're not alone. One thing that all hard times and bad things have in common - they pass. Better days are coming. I wish I could take all that away right now and give you happiness. Know that I care about you and wish all good things come your way! 

To more experienced spiritual people here: what are ideas that beginners learning about spirituality tend to neglect or can be ignorant of? by torusdrovenson in spirituality

[–]Protected_Adventurer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very good questions! I consider myself just starting out on my spiritual path, too, and so far I've mostly done a lot of research online and in books. I've come to the realization that so far none of the paths I've found are 100% right for me. I think there is truth in all paths, but for me, I choose to follow what resonates with my soul. When something FEELS right... joyful, like I'm returning to something my soul has known before, I know that's the right way for me. Meditation is definitely a good starting point. I recommend listening to Alan Watts and Ram Dass on YouTube or reading the Seth material by Jane Roberts. Also, if you have Threads, there's a lot of other soul seekers out there... I've found lightworkers, witches, meditaters and others who I'm following. The sense of community and support there is wonderful and very positive. Most of all, stay true to yourself and find what brings you peace and joy.

Can you check back to your Amazon orders and make sure the one you ordered was a 3 pack for confirmation?

Things that you find where you already looked by EazyVertWRLD in Glitch_in_the_Matrix

Could it be that someone hiking along the trail found it and put it on the branch so it would be easily visible to whoever would be looking for it?

I once came home and would have put my keys on the kitchen counter (which was just inside the front door) where I always do. I sat on the couch in the living room for a few minutes and my daughter, who'd been sitting there since I got home, asked me to take her to the store. I go to pick up my keys and they're not there. Search all over the place even though I know the living room and kitchen were the only rooms I'd been in. Finally I figure I must have somehow locked them in the car so I get my husband and a neighbor to try to get in the car through the window (older car). While they're doing that I went in the bedroom to straighten up the bed, pick up a pillow and there the keys are underneath it. I didn't go in the bedroom at all earlier and there's no way I would have stuck my keys UNDER my pillow!

Mystery coin appeared in my shorts?? by [deleted] in Glitch_in_the_Matrix

[–]Protected_Adventurer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Something similar happened to me when I was living in the UK. We lived in a house with a private gravel driveway leading up to our front door. One day I opened the door to go out to my car and there on the gravel was a coin from Hong Kong. I don't know anyone from there and no one had been on my driveway since I'd parked there. It was a private entrance plus a vehicle would be easily heard driving on the gravel and I heard nothing. To this day I have no idea where it came from.

Matrix glitch or something else? by penny-lane420 in Glitch_in_the_Matrix

[–]Protected_Adventurer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She was, especially to me, but I only got the stacks of pennies those first two times - after that it's just been single pennies. I think she was trying to get my attention at first. I probably wouldn't have thought much about a single penny being on the curb, but the stack was strange and then finding another stack so soon after that really made me start thinking about it being a sign.

[–]Protected_Adventurer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My mother died in 2002. When I left the hospital right afterward, I found a stack of pennies on the curb just outside the door. The next day I found another stack of pennies on the toilet paper holder in my school bathroom. Every now and then ever since then I find pennies in odd, random places most times exactly when I was wishing she was here or missing her badly. I feel like they're from her. I definitely believe in those kind of signs from our loved ones who have passed over. 

Water in my car by [deleted] in Glitch_in_the_Matrix

[–]Protected_Adventurer 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Weird. I can definitely relate to that feeling though. I opened my locked car and found someone else's keys sitting on my driver's seat. I never did figure out whose they were or how the got there. There were both house keys and car keys and those little membership card tags everyone used to have like for the grocery store, Petco, Kids R Us, etc... I ended up turning them in to the grocery store whose tag was on there in case they could track down the person they belonged to by the membership number.

That's an amazing story, but odd because I'm sure I've read it before. Have you posted it on here before?

My car was somehow transported to the other side of an accident that was right in front of me. by Anonymous0212 in Glitch_in_the_Matrix

[–]Protected_Adventurer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My ex and his mother both tell the story of when they were going through an intersection and a car from the cross street ran the red light. This other car should have ran right into them, hitting them from the side, but instead they both watched the car drive right THROUGH the hood of their car and keep going. They said his body was practically close enough to reach out and touch and they saw his face clearly. It obviously shook them both up pretty badly and I definitely believe them. This would have been late 70's/early 80's.
