Blessed Lughnasadh!

Merry meet! Today is August 1st, the day we witches celebrate Lughnasadh, the sixth Sabbat of the Wheel of the Year. This is the first of the three harvest festivals. We are halfway between Fire and Water, and nearing the end of summer.

I have almost reached a full year of my official study of Wicca. I'm so excited :) I have learned so much in the year that felt so long and yet flew by. It seems like only yesterday I was sitting in this very chair texting Adam ideas about using banishment spells (which, truly, I just pulled straight out of my ass) to get rid of the evil spirit that seemed to be possessing him (I had a mild paranoia of fairies back then; I've since realized that Adam is probably schizophrenic). It was near the end of August 2008 (which, I just realized, is actually very funny; it was a waning moon at the time, the perfect time for banishments), and the idea just came to me. I searched the internet for spells, and my old interest in Wicca that I'd stuffed away since it was born when I was ten sparked. I did some research, went out and bought a book.... and here I am.

Despite not being allowed to freely express my faith, due to the fact that my mom did not know and my boyfriend Marc told me not to, I have grown tremendously. I dumped that boyfriend last week (even though I should've dumped him last month) and now I feel freer and like I can change and grow however I'm meant to.

Though it's quite funny how the reason why I've finally found my spiritual path is because of that dumbshit, Adam. There's one good thing about our summer experience. Lol.

Blessed Lughnasadh. :]
