BellaOnline Forums Religion and Spirituality Wicca I'm new, Blessed to have found this site!

I am a Quad 3 1/2 years post injury, Shouldn't be here or even be able 2 care for myself~ I am completly independent today. Docs are amazed... This am I buttoned my shirt 4 the first time! I really would appreciate some guidance, I want to learn how to utilize the gift I have been given. I know life i a series of visualations, that's how I have healed. 3 years later and still improving. Doc's said after 18 mo. it's over (no more healing)...They were wrong! Have met some wonderful people along my journey, all things happen for a reason, happier 2day than ever~ do not take things for granted, that's for sure! I am learning to read signs & symbols and keeping track of my dreams. I want to just be a blessing and continue to grow. Can you guys offer assistance on spells and "how to"..... Have a wonderful day everyone!! Thanks!!!

hey, I am new here too! I'm also still learning about stuff, too, so maybe we could help each other out as we go?

Greetings!! I am so sorry I have not been around lately. I have some exciting things going on in my life. Welcome to you both and anyone who is new to the Wicca Forum!

Grace - it sounds as if you have been giving a purpose for this life for survivng your ordeal! What specifically are you looking for "how-tos" and spells??

Sure~ just afraid it would be the blind leading the blind! How were u exposed to the Wiccan faith? My professor who helped me get into college(was in community. she said I belonged at the University of Pitt, so here I am)She is Wiccan but she won't discuss topic with me now. I was brought up cath. Hail marys and our fathers were not cuttin it..There is a universal church here, just can't get to it, cause of my chair..... long,long story...how bout you?

Thanks for getting back so quickly. I know I have a gift,(dream I had, VERY VIVID) water, ducks and looking down on ocean and thinking "thats how the lifeguard knows how &when to react... I had the same vision, was like I put it all together after that. Then twice followed my intution and avoided something that proved to me I was capable of seeing in the future. how do I improve it? And yes I would like to learn about spells,maybe for healing or protection I really just want something small just cause I am beginning. Can you reccommend a good book, for new people? I got one off the internet and it is hard to understand("WICCA")VIVVIANNE CROWLY. My professor turned counselor is a witch but won't discuss the topic w/ me cause of conflicting interest. I am no longer seeing her. Anyway does that give u an idea or help in understanding where I am coming from? She has such peace and I want mine to grow also. Oh I could go on & on. What do you recommend? Or can u even do that? Would so appreciate guidance. Thank you!!!!!

Morning, Can you explain how to "find" my spirit guide? My Ex coulselor did suggest I read "Animal Speak" by Andrews I have and do know my totem animal but have no idea how to determine my spirit guide. Thank you, Oh and you said you said you have exciting things going on ~ Happy for you!:) Hope you are well !

Finding an animal totem and a spirit guide are practices associated with shamanism and its own particular kind of path and I agree with your councilor that "Animal Speak" is a good starter book for that path. But don't just stop with that book's definition of your animal totem read how that animal is seen in myths from multiple cultures to get a better understanding of it. As far as finding your spirit guide about the best thing to do is to meditate on it. Some thing to think on... some times an animal totem and a spirit guide can be one and the same.
