Hello there. Anyone around?
|
Hmm I don't think anyone is still here, but hello anyway! I'm a bit of a recently converted Pagan, so I might have some questions as time goes on, if that's alright X3 |
Welcome :)
Feel free to ask any questions you like. Sorry about disappearing. I'm in England so it was quite late last night. What attracted you about paganism? If you don't mind me asking :) |
Ah I see...yeah you posted really early my time so I'm guessing you're not on anymore o.o' But anywho, I don't really remember what attracted me to paganism, I had taken up interest in it like, 7 or so years ago X3. It was just a matter of figuring out if it was right for me :3. That and my mother is Catholic so it's not like I can do research all that easily or anything >.>' I kinda have to watch what I do cause I still live with her so obviously she can't know I'm Pagan D: |
Hello all! I was raised Pagan. :3 I haven't done much lately, but I do still consider myself a Pagan.
|
ah! hello again Mal XD I think I'm the only other one in here right now o.o' I didn't realize you were Pagan though, that's awesome :D |
XD Hihi-- yes, my family is :3 We celebrate Yule instead of Christmas, all the other stuff, yadda yadda XD It's all very normal for me.
It's so strange to hear people calling Paganism "Satanism"-- the ignorance is sad. Pagans don't even believe in Satan. I heard someone go off on a rant the other day about how disgusted she is with people who call themselves pagan, and how they're really Satanists. She wouldn't listen to me at all when I tried to tell her that we don't even believe in Satan, or that Paganism is mostly an earth-based religion. Sorry about the mini rant XD; |
X3 Mini rants are fine. I know what you mean though, I tried explaining that same thing to my mother once and she wouldn't hear a word of it >.> Hence why most people simply think I'm non religious, I can't tell them or word might get back to my mother ._. Though I was non religious for a few years so it's believable XD So are you just a non specific Pagan? Or is there a specific branch you deal with? :3 |
I love the ranters. Especially as I know a Lucifarian or two that should show them that pagans are the nice ones that will, more often than not, turn the other cheek.
|
I haven't really chosen a specific path. It must be hard to handle your mother =/ I'm sorry she can't accept your beliefs.
Exactly, Taiania XD |
-walks in-
Ooh, nice holidays. Lamma is approximately equal to Lughnasadh, I think.... Paganism = Satanism?! How dare they! <insert indignance here> |
It's ok. As long as you take it as 'they dont know any better' it's easier to turn the other cheek and not swing the proverbial axe.
How is everyone tonight? |
*hops back in* hi hi!! Goat is doing alright, thinking of quitting one of the avatar sites I'm on ^^' |
Hi ^_^
Why are you thinking of quitting? |
too much madness, especially in the marketplace @.@ That and I don't really have any friends or anything on there... I'm really only on there for the items ^^' |
Ahh I see. Fare reason. I've abandoned accounts for things like that. I'm just glad here is so stable (knock on wood).
|
I know right? X3 This place is so awesome... So do you know of any good Pagan websites? o.o Goat likes to explore and learn and all that jazz...(since I'm still pretty new to all this) Also I might have to let my art shop die, it's failing pretty bad >.> |
I'm not very web savvy when it comes to pagan sites. I've seen too much crap posted up DX but http://www.witchcraft.org/ is pretty reliable and legitimate. I'll keep an eye out for others.
I'm more of a book girl but they can be expensive and hard to find, especially if you're not out of the broom closet yet. Don't let your art shop die. Maybe just revamp it :) |
yay website! Well, I'm only out of the broom closet to a few people (no one in my family) so no I can't get any books...(yet) Believe me as soon as I move out of my mother's, I'm stocking up on all sorts of stuff >3< Revamp my art shop? o.o But I just made it like, yesterday or the day before... |
It's always fun to buy new stuff when you get a little freedom. My partner says she'll write up some stuff (from the tonnes of books I have) for you when she has a little time :)
Aww, well it hasn't had much time to get off the ground yet. Don't lose hope. |
Oh that would be so awesome :3 And yeah I suppose you're right, it's just I see all the other shops and how much better their art is >.< Ah well, maybe someone will like my art... Thanks for the friend request by the way :3 |
:) We'll try and put together a mini book for people on the thread ^_^
Everyone's art is beautiful in it's own way, just takes a while to find the people that see it. Keep posting around and I'm sure you'll get some business. No problem :) |
A mini book? coolness....:D Well posting around would be the hard part XD I tend to be more of a lurker...>.> I can surely try though... |
Maybe I'll start it in the next few days. I have a few days off work and since I got my sygil tattoo I've been desperately wanting to do something that lets out my spiritual side.
Me too. It was a big thing starting this hangout for me, but as I couldn't find a pagan thread I felt the need. ^_^ |
....I was actually gonna start a Pagan thread cause I hadn't seen one when I first joined XD But then I looked the next day and saw you had made one X3 which was good cause I have no idea how I would've set it up and all XD What is a sygil? o.o' I get the feeling that's something I should know... I'd love to get an ankh tattoo but I have no money for it D: |
Lol, great minds think alike. I wasn't completely sure what I was doing so I just scoped out what everyone else had on their first page XD
In this case it's the symbol that represents myself. You can use it instead of signing things, but unlike a name it says everything about who you are. |
I'm....not sure I really get that but ok o.o *goes to google it* ..hhmmm..well i found the term sigil, is that the same thing? o.o If so then it sounds really nifty :3 |
The word has many meanings, that's why it's a pain to research. In it's simplest form it's like the wax stamp kings and queens put on letters with their crest. It's instantly recognisable and gives lots of information.
This is mine http://i418.photobucket.com/albums/p...4012011070.jpg It cost £40. But it was worth it. |
oh ok, I think I get it now...how does one choose such a thing? o.o Yours looks really interesting, I like it :3 I wonder how many US dollars that converts to...maybe I do have enough for a tattoo, but no way my mother would let me get one ._. Maybe after I get a job she would allow it... |
It just sort of comes to you. It's something good to meditate on. :)
Thanks :D It would be about $60. But it would also depend where you got it done, different places have different price guides. Plus the job would lead to you being able to move out. Or at least a little more independence. |
I shall have to meditate on that then >:3 ha! I do have enough money then >:3 I don't think it'd be too much just for an ankh... Well it's more the fact that I would have money coming in when I have a job, I'm pretty sure my mother had said tattoos were ok once I'm 18 (which I'm over that X3 ) It's just she doesn't want me spending ANY money til I'm working ._. And I need new shirts too ;-; |
Awww, money then shirts :)
You could still go and talk to an artist. That's free ^_^ And my mum never would have let me get a tattoo if I wasn't working either. I know how you feel. |
Is it really? Still not sure if my mother would let me but I suppose it's worth looking into. Of course first I have to decide where I want the darn thing... I was gonna get it on my shoulder blade, but I think I want it somewhere I can see it better... I know I want either the ankh or an eye of horus on my shoulder, with a rainbow band above and below it. But I have to decide which I want there. So I'm not sure where I'd get the other ._.' |
