Welcome to WOTC! A Thought for Today
When doing money spells I have found they work better when asking in the spell for enough money to cover our bills and necessities with a little leftover for fun. I don’t ask to be rich or just have more money than needed to spend on whatever or to cover an expensive trip or whatever luxury is more than I really need. Doing money spells with this intention I have been able to save money. An example is my trip to Germany in 2016 all paid for with money I was given to save up for it.

Whether you are in or out or partly out of the broom closet remember the only person that needs to be concerned with your spiritual path is you!
May your path be blessed with whatever you want out of it. You are the one in charge of which gods or goddesses you choose to make offerings to and work with. You are the one in charge of what you put out into the universe through wishes or spells or rituals or any combination of these. It is your intentions that are the center of your spiritual and magicakal path. Even if you are in a coven ultimately it is you who decides to participate in what the coven does or not.
Personally, over my 40 + years of following the Goddess who goes by many names including but not limited to The Great Mother/Mother Earth/Gaia and the God who goes by many names including but not limited to The Green Man/Horned God/Odin and RA. Over the years I slowly then fully came out of the broom closet in most areas of my life the one place I do not put it out there much that I am a pagan and witch is when I am with family or starting a new job. Basically, my family knows loosely what type of spiritual path I choose to follow but it is not brought up and I wear alternative amulets instead of a pentacle when I am with them or keep my pentacle under my shirt.
Why do I do this? So, unlike many of the Christians in my family, I do not feel I have to have an outward sign of any kind to be true to my spiritual path. My path is a personal one even though I lead a coven of my witchy Sisters and apprentices. As I tell them we are a coven of solitary witches who come together to talk about our lives or our spiritual paths or magickal workings and for the 8 Sabbats. A few months ago, in our monthly chat a novice brought this topic it up and it was refreshing to hear how others feel about it and why they come out to some people but not others. So, I asked myself does it take away from me walking a pagan path to not saying I do? No, I do not feel that by me being in the shadow of the wide-open broom closet door when with family deteriorates what I feel and the path I choose to follow spiritually and magickly.
What are your views on the topic of how far out of the broom closet do you want to be or are?

For the first time in years I am going to be setting up books and things for someone else’s small business. While I have set up books for many different types of businesses in the past I have never worked in the real estate business before so I am a bundle of nerves stepping out of my comfort zone. This is a contract job so basically I am a consultant for the owner of the properties. I am confident in the programs I will be using but still that first day of work nerves have me apprehensive. So if you want to please wish me luck in this new endeavor in my life. I will get as many posts done as I can before I have to leave.

I will be back to doing my regular and extra information posts tomorrow. Yesterday was a busy one as Big Dawg, my husband, celebrated Easter. SO that means I cook a large holiday dinner, and we spent the day together for family time. So today I posted things I would have done yesterday, and don’t want to overflow your inbox with emails today.

Welcome to WOTC! Happy and Blessed Ostara/Spring Equinox
This is a great day to set goals and long term spells and/or rituals you’d like to come to fruition by Mabon/Autumn Equinox.
You see three different dates this Sabbat can fall on. Why is this? I will delve more into that in other posts today.
Most Native American tribes and nations celebrate for the three dates yearly.

I’m feeling so much better after having the weekend off with thunderstorms, and snow. Thunderstorms and snow both fill me with all kinds of metaphysical and physical energies. So I’m back today still with aches and pains but in a much better mind space. I hope you all had an awesome weekend also. The links will take you to my YouTube channel where I will be doing a simple Ostara/Spring Equonix ritual live this Friday, March 20th at 10:00 AM CT.

Even if you cannot or do not want to share you are a witch with others that does not mean you are denying your spiritual and magickal path. Remember it is what is in our heart and spirit that counts not what other people know about us.
I am lucky enough to have been able to come out of the broom closet at a fairly young age and have proudly admitted to being pagan and a witch for most of my adult life. Not all of us can do this because of family or friends or work which is ok as long as we know and acknowledge our path to ourselves.

Welcome to WOTC! A Thought for Today
Soul Contract
The idea bred false conclusions
And a fateful contract
Signed in blood
Ancient text with ancient rite
Demon summoning
Lonely crossroads
It sounded easy
No payment due
Saved until a future day
Bargaining with your soul
What’s the value
None can say
They rather trade it away
Earthly pleasures
They’re easy to see
Wealth, fame, power
Living life so lavishly
Yet time
Time’s a mortal enemy
Try not to think
That eternal damnation
A constant cycle of cremation
But only after pain
And so much suffering
Distract yourself
Try not to see
Deal with it eventually
You want it now
Everything
Eternal youth and diamond rings
Pleasures only flesh can bring
Forgotten was the ancient spell
Your private highway
Your road to hell
Tied now to the hourglass
Amazing run will travel fast
The pact fulfilled
The payment due
Now he comes
Comes for you
Famous Pacts with Demons
Robert Johnson – American Blues Musician – His shadowy life and early death at age 27 gave rise to the legend that he traded his soul to the devil for fame and fortune
Johann Faust – Fifteenth century alchemist, astrologer, and magician whose life became the focal character in the popular tale of Dr. Faust who entered into a pact with Mephistopheles, exchanging his soul for 24 years of service.
Urbain Grandier – A French Catholic priest who was burned at the stake for witchcraft in 1634. One of the documents used in his trial was a pact between the devil and Grandier, written in Latin and covered in strange markings. It was known as the Pactum foederis Urbani Grandieri.
I am doing the best that I can each day with posts. The weather here is a yo-yo and not compatible with chronic pain problems. I will continue bring you what I can each day depending on my pain level.

To me my personal soul contract was found by doing shadow work. I strongly suggest if you are going to do shadow work that you do it with someone you trust 100% as looking at your shadows can bring up some pretty scary things from this and past lifetimes.

I am moving slow today meaning I will be posting but it might be later than I usually do. One of those days that even though RA is shining beautifully and warmly in the sky I do not have the energy to get things done quickly. I have been in a depressed stated for about the last 10 days but spending time outside today with my patron God RA filling me with his fiery energy and Mother Earth, one of my two matron Goddesses, grounding me I will be feeling a whole lot better. The air is warm with RA shinning down on Mother Earth as she awakens with green showing in the grass and Snow Drops blooming we’re leaving the cold months into the warmer ones. I feel the pull of Luna, my other matron Goddess, leading me into a new phase in my life as she has just blessed us with a super-blood Moon I can feel her challenging me to stop dilly-dallying around and work on my book centering on Witchcraft Bare Basics, which is also the working title of my book. More about my book as it comes closer to me releasing it,

I’m more of a skeptic of all religion but honestly given the way I feel
deep down inside Wicca is a much better fit because At least under that system the Pantheon above considers men and women equal, Gods and Goddesses.
As above, so below.
As in if in the heavens the sexes are equal then down on the earth below they are as well
I’m- I have trouble believing anything
I’m too scientifically educated to believe anything too easily.
Even having seen success with Candle magick i’m like what if I didn’t burn what would have happened? I don’t know. There’s no control on those experiments.
So I can’t really be confident all I can tell you is I used the candles and something like what I wanted showed up.
