Introductions thread - Divination - Round 2

[Kalika]

Students - introduce yourselves here. :)

[Blair]

I've been pagan for 5 years, started out Wiccan but now my path is best defined as Eclectic Pagan Witchcraft with mostly Celtic and Norse influences. I'm taking a break from college for two months before I start again in January so I might as well take the time to learn some new stuff. I've tried Tarot but never had much success with it, just couldn't quite connect I guess. I seem to do better with runes but haven't had much time lately to work with them. I haven't tried any other divination but I'd like to learn others.

[emmunite]

Salutations...I'm worked with runes for divination off and on for 8 years. I've used the tarot as well although not quite as proficently. I'm looking forward to learning more about scrying and pendulums.

[Bix]

I'm a 19 year old college sophomore living in West Texas. I studied Wicca in high school for two years, then wandered away from it due to a backlash from friends and family...but now am slowly creeping back to it and trying to learn everything I can. I haven't had much experience in divinations, but I'm really interesting in Tarot.

[WickedBttrfly]

Hi, You can just call me Wicked or Wb. I am 21 years old and when I was a kid I went to 5 different christian religions when I was a kid because of my grandmother's ever changing will. I never really got into it though. It just never felt right. I guess I have been Pagan since I was 12, I just didn't know that's what it was :p. I have limited experience with tarot, and I'm very interested in learning about as many forms of divination as possible. I am really excited about scrying, so ignore me if I get kinda silly when it comes up. Actually... I'm just silly period. I apologize in advance.

[Storm Moon]

I'm 26, and was raised Catholic for about a 3rd of my life, and when I was around 10, I (well me and my mom) stopped going to church. For awhile, I didn't really have any form of spirituality. I found Wicca about a couple of years ago and kept reading as much as I could. I've never really done any type of Divination so that's why I'm here, to learn it :D

[Anubis RainHawk]

Hi! I'm 15 and have been practicing Witchcraft for a little over a year, though I have been researching occult related topics for three years. My main interest is deities more than anything, but I also have a strong interest in magick as well as divination, though mostly the tarot. I really enjoy writing and write for two Wiccan/Pagan e-zines. You can find more info about me in the frequent contributors section of the Blessed Moon e-zine, www.blessedmoon.com.

[Noriohtle]

Hi there im Noriohtle you may call me "Nori" I am a 40 yr old single mother of an amazing child, i have been in and out of diffrent "religions" for the most of my life when i finially gave and began studying what felt right to me and from there i am developing my path. I have no experience in Divination and am here to learn and understand.

[-Ember]

I'm 23, was a solitary for a while (depending on what counts as the start), student/dedicate for a few years, and an initiate for two years now. I've dabbled with most of the more common forms: Runes, Tarot, playing cards, I Ching, pendulums, bone bag, etc. I'm just generally interested, and having not done any internet classes previously this seemed like a good place to start.

[Nephthys]

hello, I'm 18 years old student and I live in the Netherlands. I started to get interested in Wicca a few years back and did some (quite a lot actually) research on it and found it wasn't quite for me, even though I agree with most of the religion. Some things I didn't agree with. I don't really follow a certain religion now. I follow my own path. I'm very excited about learning more about divination, because I haven't learned to much about it yet. Just some basics.

[CanisFirebrand]

Hi.

I'm 30 years old, :eek: and have been pretty much just reading and doing a little bit of work on my own. I plan to get more involved and serious this year.
I have a little bit of knowlege of Tarot and have done a few readings which I received positive feedback on, so that made me happy.
I love to learn and read about new things, so these classes are of great use to me. :)

[AlphaOmega]

Hi,
I am 15 years old. I live in Wisconsin. I've been studying Wicca and Witchcraft for about 2-3 months now, so I'm kinda new to this. I am trying to get involved more with the community, so that's why I am taking this class.
Thanks!

[SilverClaw]

Nice to meet you all.

[Devi]

Hi everyone:heartthro

I'm a 27 year old married gal, currently living in florida. I dont know much about divination but would like to ...so here I am. :flowers:

[Empress Stillnight]

I'm a thirty-eight year old married college student, mother of five and grandmother of one. I'm interested in everything Celtic, and have been studying for about two years now.

I've just begun studying Celtic history in depth this year, and am starting to learn Irish.I'm not thrilled with the audio program I'm currently using, but the tapes for the series that I want are not currently available, so I'm working on conversational Irish until I can get the program that goes into more depth.

I'm "renewed" to divination. I used to be pretty intuitive when I was younger but gave it up for quite awhile. I've been reading Tarot for about a year, but haven't really had time to delve into it deeply. I don't have an intimate understanding of the cards-have to use a guide, but get really insightful answers nevertheless. I love to paint in watercolors, and would someday like to make my own set of cards, as I feel that it would have much more meaning to me than commercially produced sets.

I'm interested in all forms of divination, but especially tarot, runes, the ogham, and scrying.

I look forward to learning with all of you:)

[Kern]

Recently found a Trad online that I'm working with. Divination tools are all new to me until about 3 months ago.

Hope to gain much knowledge in divination here.

[Aleigh]

Hi. :) I'm a 29 year old mother of 2, and have been studying various Pagan paths for 6 years now. I started out studying Wicca (because that's mostly what our bookstore had info on back then), but decided it's not quite right for me. I'm a solitary, eclectic something-or-other for now. :p I've been learning Tarot recently, and I want to learn more about the other methods of divination as well. :)

[BrigidMoon]

Goodness, I thought I had missed this. Why? Have no idea!

Anyway, I'm 34 and live in Vermont. I have a 9 year old daughter and live with her and my fiance. I am a computer operation specialist at a local credit union here. I am very new to the Celtic Pagan path however, not new to intuitions, experiences, tarot etc etc. I am very excited to learn a lot more! :)

[Faelon_Moon_Hawk]

Hi, i'm Faelon a 21 year old female college senior, with a major in animal science, a concentration in equine studies and no idea what's gonna happen when i graduate in may ^^;; @_@;; . I"ve been practicing paganism for about 7 years now. I'm currently an ecclectic solitary wiccan whose's investigating traditional (pre-gardnerian) witchcraft. As far as divination goes, i mostly use tarot cards (dragon tarot deck, and fairy oracle cards), tho i did make my bf a set of runes, and have tried scrying (unsuccessfully) a few times. I'm also going to make myself a set of witch stones to use, after reading about them here at the divination board.

[Willow Rosette]

Im sorry I am late in joining the class but I am new to MW and still trying to figure this out. But I am a 27 year old single mom to a beautiful 2 year old daughter who is my world. Ever since Samhain I have been having dreams that are pushing me to enhance my self spiritually. So that is why I am here. Im excited to get started.

Blessed Be,

Visha's Mommy

[Sasha318]

Hello all. My name is Sasha, and I've studied witchcraft off and on for about three years. That said, I'm new to MysticWicks and this particular path after spending quite of bit of time as an atheist. I have several divination tools, and am trying to find the one that works the best for me.

[Sybill]

Hallo,
I have always be interested in divination, since when I was a child. I discover at the age of 11 a book about divination in the bibliothecae of my town, but only when I was 16 I had the courage of read it and I copy the significations of cards and I ching method. I start to practice a little bit with my best friends the all in secret because I came from a catholic family and this practice was seen as a sin. At the university I met a boy (now a friend) who was used to read tarots and encouraged me to continue readings card s seeing in me a strong capacity of interpretation. I feel well when I read cards, I feel as a part of me is gone and a source of power flows on me. I sometimes have also dreams in which i can see things that could happen or I feel things arrive before it happens really.

I'm 29 years old and mother of a beautiful baby of 14 months.

[Raven Reed]

Joining in late!

I am a thirtyfive year old mother of two teenaged boys. I have been a pagan since 1986. I have studied the runes a bit, just started working with the Tarot within the last six months or so. I have done a little mirror and water scrying.

[i_am_serenity16]

Been signed up awhile but I never introduced myself. You may call me by S, Serenity16 or moonfire as I go by all three around here. I'm 16, wiccan of an Egyptian oriented path, and a musician (I play bass in a heavy metal band). I've been working on developing my psychic powers and divination skill for about 3 months. I must also add, I'm currently getting help for drug abuse and may vanish from the board from time to time during the detox period to recover.

[Kalika]

Lesson six is up!


Thought I'd bump this thread, since the majority of you students have posted in here. :)

[Salanthos]

I understand Divination classes are starting again?
I would like to join.
I'm a 19 yr old college student, been interested for nearly my whole life. I am a Hindu-based, eclectic Pagan with solitary Wiccan tendencies. I'm fairly good with Tarot and pendulum, have a little experience with Runes, a little palmistry which is almost certain to be wrong, a single instance of attempted flame divination, and a palm-sized quartz ball I don't know how to use. I am particularly interested in learning to scry.

[PEM]

I'd like to join too. :)

I'm a 27 year old mom to a 2 year old. I'm very eclectic...I've been accused of being an empath...:)

I have a set of Runes that I'm pretty confident with...I had a Fairy Tarot that wouldn't work with me at all...so I passed them along to a friend. I'm going to be getting a new Tarot deck soon...I fell in love with a gorgeous deck recently...

Umm...anything else y'all need or want to know?
Peace and blessings,
pem

[azrael1989]

[lilyavalon]

I am 25 newlywed who just recently took ahold of my new path with great stride. I have been dabing here and there... but took the plunge one month, 2 weeks, and 4 days since I joined my coven The Silver Garden. Ever since I have been learning...

[SilverClaw]

Whooo :wave:hello to all new people who have joined the class, looking back on my previous entry in this thread it is almost a year since I joined this class, yikes time flies.

Anyways nice to meet ya all :D

[StarCraftLia]

.

[SilverClaw]

Yep not having an easy time of things so the class kind of got put on the back burner.

And Ha pronounced your name right before I looked at the guide ya have there :D And nice to meet you :)

[paper_majic]

HI!
I just wanted to poke my head in and see what all the fuss was about. I think that divination is very interesting, and I would like to hone my skills a bit more.
So, hello, everyone, You can call me Emmy. I am 17, and full of wonder for this world.
I can't wait to get started.

Also, do we just pick up and study everything, or is the class basically starting over again?

[Geministar]

Hello all! My namw is Kristi and I'm 24. I'm an eclectic solitary wiccan and love to learn as much as I can about the craft. This looks like a great class and as I just signed up to this forum I'm just gonna dive right in! Nice to meet you all!!!

[Geministar]

I'm sorry I just realized this was the second class and since I havent taken the first one yet that might help! If I'm mistaken please let me know or if you are holding a beginners class. Thanks alot!

[SilverClaw]

uhm I think the second class just means this is the second time it has been offered....and if I am wrong Kalika, please correct me :D

[lilyavalon]

Is this a teach your self kinda thing? I see all the palmestry posts.

Just wondering when the class was going to start if its not a teach yourself kinda thing.

[SilverClaw]

That was from the previous class that I was apart of and some people just dropped off and never came back. The pamistry threads were the ones that we started with after the assigment 1, not sure what is going to happen this time around though.

[AstralMagick]

I'm not quite sure if you're still accepting new members to the group, though I'd like to join the class.;)

[Salanthos]

ummm... just had a thought. maybe we should have posted all this in the "signups" thread rather than introductions - that might be why Kalika hasn't answered and/or restarted the lessons...

I'll try reposting mine there, and see what happens...

[paper_majic]

i can't wait until we can actually start the class.

[ladyselena621]

Hi,all!
I am April and I am 25. I have been studing Wicca since I was 15. I am Ecletic/Dianic Witch. I am very interested in Divination..

[Walking Spirit]

Hi,

I am a clean slate myself, I have read several things but want to learn so much more. Can I still sign up? And if so, where do I do this.

[Kalika]

ooook.

I didn't want to restart the class - just have everyone catch up, because that would be a heck of alot easier on me... but, is restarting what ya'll want to do?
