(brilliant title tho). If it pains you terribly people work magic to improve it. *sigh* You are after allowed to bring prosperity and wealth to you. I mean I have never heard of anything so silly. How are they possibly seperate from one another...? I mean hello its in the name.<BR/>Also tat's and peircings are a personal choice and always have been. I mean before the Chinese brought it into Europe ect it was mostly henna and painting the body with natural earth based paints.<BR/>As if that will make you more 'Wiccan..'<BR/><BR/>I'm glad you posted about this experience and having been a long term solitary. I think I will just stick to the festivals and see what the future brings for the group I'm looking to go to.<BR/>Good luck in you search for Like minded individuals and not the ones that feel they need the grouping.<BR/><BR/>Bright blessings. xAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12266929010813682849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8157383481336938300.post-25512017845860240712008-11-09T10:22:00.000-07:002008-11-09T10:22:00.000-07:00I found your blog through my buddy Jules blog....H...I found your blog through my buddy Jules blog....<BR/><BR/>How awful for you, and the tattoo thing, WOW, I'm speechless about that.<BR/><BR/>I am very happy with my solitary path. I like talking with other pagans, but as far as finding a group, I haven't even looked, and don't care to actually. That tattoo comment is one reason why I wouldn't even want to try.Tammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10116318786704234856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8157383481336938300.post-20690702808708025762008-11-09T07:33:00.000-07:002008-11-09T07:33:00.000-07:00You probably are where you should be, as far as re...You probably are where you should be, as far as remaining solitary, as I feel I am. I've experienced the same - everytime I try to reach out to some sort of group, there's the negative vibe thing going on, and a LOUD voice in my head screaming to RUN FOR THE HILLS! Internet groups seem to follow suit also; who has the best page with most friends, etc. No real information sharing going on. Beware of these internet sites; I had someone trying to hack into my computer while on Pagannet.

I have tried moots, groves and blots (Norse meet-ups)and things like WitchyCon and DruidCon but I always come away feeling that I have little in common with the people who attend and that I am at some pagan version of a Star Trek convention (which is why I think they insist on calling them "Cons", in addition to trying to wring more cash out of you!).<BR/>I have only made one real dear friend at any of these and we work exclusively as a pair now.Jay Andrewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15874089072940568747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8157383481336938300.post-88106884316600642022008-11-08T13:15:00.000-07:002008-11-08T13:15:00.000-07:00Dear Celestite, I have been interested in finding ...Dear Celestite, I have been interested in finding a local group myself. Because I work at home I am very solitary, which is hard because by nature I am a social butterfly. However, after reading this post I think I'll stick to my solitary practice.<BR/><BR/>The one group I know about here sounds a lot like the one you ended up at. There are about 40 members but they're all really young and not really looking for more experienced members but just members in general. At least we have the internet!<BR/><BR/>Love always!Beverlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10605982388698248954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8157383481336938300.post-59861499107874216632008-11-08T09:34:00.000-07:002008-11-08T09:34:00.000-07:00Thank you and I hope you come back again.Thank you and I hope you come back again.Celestitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14786165729352851549noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8157383481336938300.post-12792957762906870612008-11-08T09:07:00.000-07:002008-11-08T09:07:00.000-07:00i just happened upon your blog, and i really enjoy...i just happened upon your blog, and i really enjoy reading it..<BR/><BR/>i feel your pain on not really finding a group to really talk with...not that share the same feelings as i do...i have yet to find my place to fit...but until then, i enjoy my solitary efforts!<BR/><BR/>good luck..Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
