Hello, I'm New Here
« on: September 02, 2014, 02:37:25 am »
Greetings to all,

I'm completely new here, but not new to paganism in general. Even though it is quite late (for me, at least), I hope you all are having a fantastic night.

I've considered myself an eclectic solitary pagan for nearly 15 years, but oddly enough, my actual practicing bits are very few and far between (except for prayers). Life just gets in the way a lot, or I'm not sure where I am anymore so I start researching again. Life is for sure busy for me now, with a toddler and as a full-time college student. I've studied Wicca (or Neo-Wicca; whatever it is books by Scott Cunningham would be considered), Druidry (was a member of ADF at one point), Heathenism, and various other cultural pantheons. I've also been interested in Buddhism and Shinto for some time. And that's why I now just consider myself eclectic.

I believe in the Gods, all of them, whether or not I choose to follow that pantheon. However, my spirituality has been stale for a while. That's part of why I'm here. Aside from wanting to be able to maybe make friends, or just converse with others about things of a pagan nature, I'm hoping to rekindle that side of me again.

Anyways... so other random bits about me:
I'm 29 (turn 30 on Friday!), currently a stay-at-home mom to an awesome 3 year-old, and married to my English love. I currently live in the NW Indiana, but am from the south originally. I am also in school right now for IT, with a focus in software development. I like learning about various cultures and mythologies, watching K-dramas, playing WoW, and learning programming.

It's nice to meet you all, and have a wonderful night/day!
