] Date Posted: 15/02/07 14:23 In reply to: sweetsong 's message, "course - initiation" on 15/02/07 9:41 Well Whitewolf has answered your second question far better than I could Sweetsong. 'Traditional magick'--if there is such a thing-- needs a very high degree of trust between people. There is also the fact that you would be raising and using/directing energy and that can have strong effects on people. All magick systems have this sort of initiatory period that is in part intended to instill a sense of balance before you move on to working magick. Don't take it personally Sweetsong. They may well also be seeking to protecting themselves from legal procedings to. I have not looked in detail at the website but are they asking you to pay them for this course Sweetsong???... Whitewolf is also right that you bi-polar does not exclude you from Paganism...no way does it. I can't help wondering what you are seeking though Sweetsong? Is it a religion/ belief system or what? You see although I call myself pagan I don't follow or pay any homage to any God/Goddess at all. For me...and this is me only...I dont see my pagan path as a religion. Spirtual yes...religion no. I agree with WW that unless you are set on following a Wiccan path...and there are several.. it may be best if you spend some time doing a lot of research about pagan paths/viewpoint etc to gain a better understanding. Hope that helps and does not confuse you. NO need to for the sack cloth Paganwolf..lol. Wolfsdream. [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] |

Date Posted: 15/02/07 14:40 I agree with both Wolfie and Gillie and think that perhaps you should read some books and look to the way you want to be. You don't have to be any specific type of Pagan. Also if your doctor has diagnosed you with bi-polar there are quite a few websites that deal with the specific problem and have self help ideas. Also perhaps a little more positivity instead of getting too hung up on your illness. Highly charged and raised energies when you are ill can cause problems - it doesn't really matter whether you have bi-polar or a little depression or a physical illness. The raised energies will affect anyone. As an aside, before I had my new heart valve Daryl, my son (who is a qualified Indian Head Massager as well as spiritual healer, Reiki and Crystal healer) would not give me an Indian Head massage because of the effect it has on the blood system - raising energies and making the blood flow faster and could have caused problems for me. So, they are not wrong to say what they did. Sorry that was a bit of a waffle. Please don't take offence at what I have said SS just my thoughts. As I have said in another post - you take yourself down a path of negativity by going on about an illness and can "cause things to happen". Dragonlady [ Post a Reply to This Message ] |
