Hello World!
« on: October 11, 2017, 06:21:53 pm »
Hey everyone! I'm Emberalis, but you can call me Ember. I'm a current college-student studying Multimedia Journalism. Right now, I'm attempting to balance spirituality with my own hectic life all the while trying to gracefully transition into adulthood (ha.) I love musical theater, music, and advocacy and social justice.

I consider myself a non-Recon Hellenic Polytheist/Pagan (if those are the proper terms??). While I started practicing witchcraft about two years ago, I recently came out of a cult-like situation in which fellow pagans manipulated the meaning and purpose of spirituality and witchcraft. My spiritual practice suffered a lot since then, and I'm still recovering my faith and devotion to the Greek gods who helped me so, so much with getting out of that awful position. Becoming a member on this forum is a part of me trying to get back into my personal spiritual practice after remaining static for the past 2 months.

I'm hoping that being a part of this forum and connecting with other pagans will help a lot! I'm excited to talk to others in the community :)

Hi, not that I've been in a cult-like situation, but as a beginner (10 years ago) I got my share of dysfunctional group experience and talking to outside people on- and offline helped me not to get too much emotionally involved and find my own way...somewhat later I finally found the group I'm still happy with. So, don't give up and welcome to TC! :)
