A Self Portrait...

The Craft has Growing Pains?

There's no need for such angst is it contrived...Its surely very odd.  What am I saying of course its contrived its also irritating.  Language police now?  Of course they have always been a pedantic, superior gang of gobshites.  

Their attitude is kind of 'who does it hurt'.    Like they don't know?   They're not up to their hairy eyes in their last little error of judgement?   Perhaps they hope it will trend on twitter, how nice for them, but that requires a victim and that would be trying,  that would be very trying particularly if I thought the victim was too young to fully understand the gangs sadism...

The Craft is old it will survive whether someone puts Christian in front of it or not.   The many and growing types will also thrive as people lose faith in what are now traditional religions and either turn to the old ways or create a new variation of them.  What's there to get heated about.  Its a good thing surely?

My own belief is in one God and one Goddess but as surely everyone knows the Gods may manifest themselves in any way or form they choose, their power comes from us...  Nothing to do with Wicca I believe in God and the Goddess. regardless if what anyone else believes...

There are now so many different kinds of Witches:  Hedge Witch, Kitchen Witch, Traditional Witch, Village Witch and however many more.   I like to think I'm a bit of all of them, definitely kitchen I might as well put my altar in the kitchen and have done with it.   I suspect someone well known for his genius may have thought I was lying when I said my altar is a wooden table...Need I say its possible to have more than one table...Surely those who think they know me know I would be unlikely to show my altar to those I distrust.

It seems to me a very youthful way of looking at the Craft a kind of attempt to categorise and specialise it.  I'm not sure about that I think as a Witch grows in experience s/he will do and use whatever feels necessary and will not be held back by any particular branch, may not even notice the diversion.   I am however positive that fancy grimoires, however lovingly, painstakingly and even artistically written, don't make a witch.   Arguably its the opposite makes the Witch...
