Sometime when you join a board you dont know anyone here, so it can be a little scary or strange making your first post.
So why not post an introduction and say something about yourself so that other members get to know you a little better.
Feel Free to post your intro here in this thread or even start your own thread here in this section.
So since I am here I will go first.
I have a few boards around that I look after and I visit many other boards. Including The Palantir.
I have been a little busy lately writing books and doing photography as well as cross-stitching.
I have 2 little dogs who are like children to me.
I love fantasy and science fiction, I love the Sara Douglass books The Axis Trilogy and The Wayfarer Redemption trilogy, I like the fact that they are two trilogies but they form one compleat set by following the same people through all 6 books.
I was born wiccan but I have studied many different religions mainly to learn about them but also to make sure that wicca was the path that was best for me.
I still have a long way to go in my learning of the craft.
I believe very much in the Three Fold Law and in the Wiccan Rede.
Anyway that about me, so I will stop and hope for more members soon.
~ one last thing is that even though I have studied other religions I would rather find people practicing those religions to moderate the sections and threads that deal with those religions other than wicca, pagan or sprituality beliefs ~

Just incase anyone comes here that knows me from other boards I will tell you that normally I use my name Will as a my profile name. I thought I might do something different this time. Anyway I will come and modify this later as I have to get going now.  |

Merry Meet!!!
I am BernieB, a solitary Wiccan from Wisconsin. I was raised as a catholic, but always thought that something was just off. I finally found a word for what I believed about 5 years ago and found that other people believed as I did as well.
I enjoy fantasy and science fiction books, play Dungeons and Dragons, Magic: the Gathering, and other stuff like that. I collect stamps, coins, Beanie Babies, etc. I also do cross-stitching and help my wife with her crafts.
I am married and have a daughter (almost 2). I was a military policeman in the Air Force, now I am a computer programmer. I am not shy, so please ask me anything. Well, I gotta fly, Merry Part! BernieB

WOW I feel so comfortable around you three MM, MM, MM, and to everyone else. I am starting to LOVE this website already.
ok here goes:
I have no religion....well except my culture one, so I guess I do have a religion, but I am not really good with this *giggles* anyways I am now a wiccan, well I am a begginner and I am doing well. When I first found out what wicca was, I started to be shy about it, but then again I found out that it was a open/free religion and I started to get comfortable with it and now I FULLY love being a wiccan, to be honest this religion and my religion are almost the same. LOL, I know its nuts, but its actually true, my friend who is a wiccan told me that I was a natural born witch (this I believe) and now I feel a bit different in a way. LOL.
I'm 15 and my school is online, I am also known as EGA= Exile Ghost Angel, i came from the P, then I went to Gondor and now i am here, of course i have been a memeber to the P for the longer and started to be another one at gondor and one at this other website and now here. *smiles*.
I live in hawaii, i have three dogs, i have three step siblings and a half brother, i live with my mom and step dad, um...i'm 5'6, dk brown hair and eyes, tan skin and i'm me.
I like LOTR=Lord Of The Rings and some other things
and i guess thats it? *shrugs*
anyways I LOVE being in here.

First off I want to thank Mal for letting me know about this place. Alittle about my self. Well I was not born into Wicca, but become it at a later date. I was not happy with the religion that I was so I went looking for a new one and this is when I found Wicca. (Later I would learn that I was raised with the Wiccan way of thinking I guess you can say) I am married, was married on August 11, 2001. I love being married to my wonderful huband! I am 24 years of age, and Please do not remind me of my birthday for I do not like my day of birth. I have one black cat by the name of Raven and one Fighting Fish by the name of Pretty Fishy. I enjoy listening to all types of music, reading books (DragonLance is one on my favorites), going and being out in nature (I well get sick if I do not go out into nature every now and then too) and more. As I said I am Wiccan. Sometimes people ask me what branch I am, well the answer to that is I follow the path that the Lord and Lady set before, that is the path I follow. I have, at the very least, studied, Green, Herbal, Tradiation/Ritual/Cereamonal, Druid, Celtic, Egypt, Norway, Native American, and possible more. I love to learn about other religion! Long reddish hair, blue eyes, small in size, lived or feels like I have lived all over. Who knows.... |

Merry Meet everyone! Like SY I'd like to say thanks to Malaika for telling me about this place, it looks great  About me? Eh ... ok! ;D My name is Marina and I live in England in the mid-south. I've been vaguely Pagan since about eleven ... it started off as an affinity with general magic, then got a basing in Wicca, now it's spread to general Paganism and any odd things I pick up from everywhere that I happen to agree with. I went to a Church of England school - not because my parents are Christian (they're not) but simply because it was the best-seeming school in the area and taught well, also had a LOT of books ^_^ While I was at primary school (age 4-11 for those of you not familiar with English schooling systems) I always felt there were things I really didn't agree with about what they taught us. The only other religions they even mentioned were Islam and Hindu, and even then only as a sort of comparison to what they told us was the truth. One of my very close friends had a horrible experience at that place before I knew her which I'm not going to repeat here 1) in case she doesn't want me to and 2) because it's not something I want to recall. Going on to a happier note, my interests are reading, writing, the internet, computer games, MUSIC, manga/anime and of course spiritualism. I love stretching my mind  I believe very strongly in freedom of speech and actions as long as they harm none, as in the Wiccan Rede. I believe in the right of everyone to express themselves and to believe whatever they wish as long as they don't force it onto other people. One of my favorite quotes is ''Religion is a fine tool to use as a guide to one's life, but a terrible thing when used to guide someone else's life.'' I'm not quite sure who said that but I think it's BRILLIANT ;D I'm very strongly opposed to George Bush's war against Iraq and I have a habit of scrawling 'Don't fight Bush's war Oil is not worth dying for' all over my books ... I have no idea about my height or weight, but I'm pretty short with long (dyed) dark brown hair and blue-grey eyes. And you can usually recognise me by the fact that I always have long, fine, white cat hairs all over me from my lovely Birman called Alys ^_^ Lotsa love and Blessed Be, Mina I look forward to getting to know you all! Even though I recognise some of you from the Palantir ... ah well I look forward to talking |

Thankyou SY! Apparently Melea has already been here but she couldn't register. I'll make her try again and then I'll see who else I can get to come here, all my other friends who go online I want to learn other religions too! I'll see if I can get my Buddhist friend to come. She just might ... |
