Son of A Witch

I am sure it is not easy for a child to have a mother that is "different".
My experience is that our children know more than we credit them with. when I finally sat down with Jason and explain what I was ,it was not a shock or disbelief .He sat there and said he knew.Of course he did.I had an alter in my room and books around and he is not stupid.
I left all the clues and he followed them.
His only concern was that I would find what I was looking for and that is what I found,I am a Witch and Jason is a son of a Witch. Our home is complete.
He may not share all my views.But he does respect them and listens to what I say and explain.I feel that he is very spiritual and this practice fits to his belief. But time will tell if he goes forth with this practice.
Right now he is my support and that means so very much...

Witch or Wicca

My niece recently asked me if Witch and Wicca were the same.This question has gone around and around in the community.I believe it is a very personal question in the sense that each person has their own idea of their pratice and who they are.

This is mine: I am a Witch.
I use portions of Wicca and other pagan thoughts that fit into my practice. What brought me to this practice( Witchcraft) is the immense freedom that I enjoy.


I do not have rules.
I do not have written scripts
I do not sit with book in hand and practice.

What I pratice is to follow what is in my nature.I come to Witchcraft with a long history of who I was and who I am.
Wicca to me is a set religion.With does and don'ts. Such as how ones alter should be set up.Mine is the way it feels to me.

The other larger portion is my great connection to nature and the land.I am most happy to be out doors in the weather of all types. Smelling the earth. Feeling the sun. Hearing the breeze.Listening to the birds and the animals. My closeness to the earth aligns with me being a Witch.
And a Witch is who I am. Now and forever.My memory carries this time and the time before.
I go back to the beginning and I was there !
My soul carries the blood of my Sisters and the innocent. I proudly proclaim my craft.
Witch I am and Witch I will be.
