Magic Manifesting: Magical Me

It's Autumn and do you know what that means to me? Delving deep into religion, spirituality, and my magical practice. I've mentioned a little bit about how my spirituality waxes and wanes but I haven't really talked a lot about what I believe, so I thought I'd cover all of that here in this post.

I believe in magic.


Since I was 15 (which in case you are keeping track is 11 years now) I've identified as Wiccan which falls under the category of Paganism. Wicca is an earth based, duotheistic religion (usually, but not always) worshiping a God and a Goddess. There are so many different views on the religion and everyone practices and believes differently, which is something that I love. You define it, you make it your own.

Over the years my beliefs have changed and transformed and now I just consider myself Pagan, influenced by Wicca and Eastern Religions.

I am very spiritual, it's so much a part of who I am and I want to share that part of myself.


This is what I believe. I believe that there is a big ball of energy/power that is the Divine. To me, that energy is male/female, ying/yang, and manifests itself to me as God and Goddess. I also believe that all Gods and Goddesses come from that energy. Whether you call it Kuan-Yin, Yemaya, Thor, Ganesh, it is all real. I also think that relationships can be formed with those energies. I am very close to Aphrodite, Hestia, and Shiva and I feel like those deities guide and protect me in my daily life. They are part of the Whole/Universe/Divine Energy, we all are.

I also believe that magic can be done. In my beliefs, performing magic is the act of manipulating the energy of the Universe for a specific purpose. I use the energy inside of myself, and around me, to change things. I don't think it's easy, I don't think the Universe makes it easy. I can't ask for prosperity or abundance and then sit around and do nothing. Magic helps pave the way but it won't do the work for you.

I believe in prayer, which is speaking to Deity. I talk to my Gods every day in many different ways. Sometimes I talk to them out loud in a conversational way. Other times it's more formal, the traditional sort of praying. I chant mantras, a form of prayer. I write in a journal devoted to Aphrodite every day before I go to sleep. Shiva is a God that dances and sometimes I dance for him. This is prayer to me and it enriches my life.

I'm witchy and I like it. I can cast a Circle. I use herbs and crystals in my ritual work. I have an altar, I honor the phases of the moon and the cycles of the seasons. I want to share these things with you. I want you to share with me in turn.

So that's a little peek into my broom closet, I look forward to sharing my rituals, spells, thoughts, and practices with you!

Blessed be! )O(
