WishCasting Wednesday: Tending Spirituality

Jamie Ridler asks, What do we wish to tend?

Some people explain Paganism as something they "Live and breath". It's a lifestyle, not something they "do". I disagree to a point. I think it is both something they do and something they are. I understand what they mean when they say it's apart of them; not just an activity. What we do comes from the soul. These daily activities are the way we "tend to our spirituality".

Tending Spirituality

I've been searching for a Pagan topic to write about and coming up blank all week. I have a working post about Mirror magick, but it wasn't inspiring me. What is inspiring me is the need to tend to my spiritual nature. It's the part of me that has a need to pass on knowledge to others, both family and to you dear readers. It is a need to write/teach about Eclectic Wicca. 

So you can help me out now.

• What topics would you like to see more info on?

• What topic do you think is largely ignored by the Pagan community? 

Later today I am doing a psychic reading and healing for a friend. I don't normally do readings because they are exhausting and honestly, readings are not something I'm big on. I like to get one for myself once or twice a year. I just think readings can and often do become a craving. I've had a few bad experiences where I've done readings and the client kept coming back not out of need but because they craved more. No one needs a reading once a week (or more). When refused I was insulted. So that is why I don't often do them. Yet I do think giving a reading is a part of tending to my spirituality. Each time I do one I gain more confidence in myself. That is an awesome feeling. 

Another way I wish to tend to my spirituality is to pass on knowledge to my daughter. As she's growing older she is more curious about Wicca. She loves when I do a ritual and involve her. Though she's still a bit shy about working in a group. Last week a girl attacked her. Being a hot headed witchy mama, I had to take a step back before I did something stupid. I may have spouted a few witchy jokes in regards to toad children. (grin). In the end I chose to make my daughter a spiritual pouch with several crystals for protection. She's proudly wearing her crystals and it's given her some new confidence in herself as well. Yay. :) 

So what is it you wish to tend?

Wishcasting Wednesday: What Is Your Spring Wish?

~Magickal Graphics~   Happy Ostara Everyone!    What are your plans to celebrate the first day of spring today?

We will be reading about Ostara. Wyatt will maybe get to color some Ostara themed coloring pages, I've boiled some eggs to color, and later we'll do an Ostara ritual where we will use egg shells to plant seeds to start. I've chosen sunflowers, because I just love them and I think they are a great representation of spring and the summer to come.

Jamie Ridler studios has a Wishcasting Wednesday. Today's question is, What is your spring wish? I decided to do a video reply this week. But in case you're not able to watch the video from wherever you are, my wish is for us to receive our tax return soon so our cars can be fixed. After that, may Lord and Lady help him to find the perfect (and better) job!

One of the downsides to Obama's healthcare law is that businesses will always try to get around the rules. One of those ways is to reduce employees hours, which my husbands employer has done. Boo for us! So we are in need of a better job and a brand new financial future.

What is your wish?

As I wishes for myself, so I wish for you.

Wishcasting Wednesday: What do you wish to learn?

Jamie Ridler has asked, What do you wish to learn?

Well, there are many things I'd like to learn. Like how to wink. I just can't do it. I end up looking like a fool. Or how about a new language? I took French in High School, but I think Spanish is more useful. My daughter and I were just talking yesterday about wanting to learn sign language.


I think my ultimate wish, is to just keep learning until the day I die. No matter what I know now, there is always something more to learn.

Blessings and Love darlings.

Wishcasting Wednesday

This blog has a Wishcasting Wednesday.

You can be a maker of magic and a tender of wishes. It’s easy.
Answer the wish prompt above on your blog and then add a direct link to your post in the box below. Support wishes by visiting other participants, leaving a comment saying “As (insert name) wishes for her/himself, so I wish for her/him also.” It’s that simple.
There is great power in wishing together.

I think it's a great idea to create a link of wishes.

Lets see, mine are:

• I wish to become financially stable. I don't need riches, I just need comfort and a little wiggle room. 
• I wish for a cure for mental illness, especially Bipolar disorder. I miss the way my Dh use to be more spiritual before his struggles with BP. 
• Once we're financially stable, I wish for a home, with land for my animals and a orchard/garden. 
• Since the "theme" I suppose is bravery, I wish to be brave in regards to a new fear of mine.
