Witch
Hey everyone,
a happy, fresh and new 2012 for each one of you!!!
I haven't posted here in a long while, because I moved over to facebook for staying in touch with people (Gwydion B. Rose) and have my other blog to express my Gifts as the Sex Faery I am (Courting the Serpents).
Though, what Facebook doesn't do for me is to provide a space where I can express all of my Witchiness boldly. A lot of my regular friends are connected to me there as well and while most of them would consider most of my contents to be "witch-related", almost all of them don't really know what it actually means to be Witch, what my Craft looks like and how enchanted my Life really is. They see it as some kind of hobby, I guess. Something I am interested in and engage with for entertainment. They don't see that I don't really have a choice here. That I was born a Witch, that I never had the choice to be blind to the spirits. I mean I could take drugs to numb myself and my senses. I could use them and I would become blind to the spirit world, but this would be nothing but self-destructive.
Without drugs I really can't ignore the spirits. They were with me from my early childhood on and they won't go away. I don't want them to go away either, because this is who I am. A Witch. A Person of Power who bridges the worlds, who has a foot in all of them, can access them and draw information and power from them. A Wise Man, who finds Wisdom in his bones, his blood, the stars, the sounds of the earth, the underwolds and upperworlds. He, who is of all the worlds and doesn't really belong to either of them. He, whose place is at the edges of the worlds, the city, the ordinary lieves of the people around him. A Witch can't choose to be ordinary. It's not in their nature. Like a bird can't breath under water. Like a tree can't grow without light. This is where "choice" is not given. This is where the Laws of Nature hold their sway and a Witch is as bound by them as any other living being.
That said, a Witch isn't better than any other person. A Witch's tools and gifts don't hold more or less value than those of a smith, a gardener, a doctor or a banker. They are just different.
I don't know if I will start to post here regularly again, but it's good to have a place to rant a bit that is just for my people.
