I have always been wondering what my path was all my life. I talked to a friend online in 1997 she was Wiccan. I was curious about her path as at that time I was of the Christian beliefs system. I always questioned it so the more I read and learned I knew that the "goddess" path was the one true path that was calling to me. I have studied for twelve years. I started my path in the Correllian Navatist Tradition .I also am a High Priestess as I finished my third degree. I also have other ordinations such as Universal Life Church and a non denominational ordination at Universal Ministries. I felt this would be good to have as to bridge with other paths. I consider myself a witch. This means I am a normal person like anyone else just a little different spiritual beliefs. I laugh, I cry, I have fun like any other. I could be your neighbor, lawyer or even your doctor. I met a very special person online; she is considered my sister not only in spirit but in life. We have a strong bond and we work great together. We knew this was what we had done. We could not decide which one to be the High Priestess of the coven so we naturally decided both of us could do the job. It is a big task and we enjoy working together. We know this will be something that will be a great accomplishment in the future getting the coven going and teaching our classes. Who knows what could be in our future but, it looks very bright. I also have been studying different healing modalities. The one that is closest to my heart is Usui Reiki I am a reiki master and also a reiki practitioner. I do sessions by appointment in Bay, City Michigan. I enjoy helping people and animals with their needs. Some of my hobbies are hanging out with my coven sisters and brothers, gardening, singing with the band, quilting and all my occult and healing studies. I really want people to be serious when they decide to take classes or if they decide to join the coven. I take my spirituality as no joke and if you do not want to learn with your heart than please do not join or take our classes.

I began my life upon this path most likely like many others did. I was Christian based in my beliefs. I did have a wonderful advantage growing up though; my parents were very open minded and allowed me, at the age of 12 yrs, to find out if Christianity was truly for me. I spent the formative years of my youth looking into numerous Christian mainstream religions, everything from Southern Baptist, to Evangelical, to Bible Baptist, to Catholic and including Protestant and everything in between. I never seemed to find a place where I "fit" in it seemed, though I did find many friends. Later on in life, at the age of eighteen, I had my first taste of Wicca, yes I was interested, though at the time I was not truly ready to follow the path, little did not know that I would be returning to Wicca a few years later. Around the age of 22 yrs, I was introduced to my mentor and friend, a Wiccan, who at the time was teaching classes in my small home town. I later joined her Coven and was quite happy in learning all that I could; to which I have done since. The Coven disassembled, however I found my "fit" and it was Wicca. In the years after, I met my Sister-the one that I share duties with within our coven- Cheryl. She is an immense inspiration to me and I would be completely lost without her. She keeps me grounded and calmed when I need to be, and lets me roar when I need to. She is my quintessential, spiritual better half. We actually did meet online, and our friendship quickly expanded from there. We worked together doing rituals, speaking to each other about our chosen paths, and very soon after, since we connected so very well, and on so many levels, we decided that the next step would be to form a Coven-to which we did. I enjoy sharing the dreams, hopes and the numerous duties with my Sister, and I look forward to our bright future as well. All of my life I have been interested in various religious structures, and I have a thirst for knowledge when it comes to religions, thus I have been able to study and acquire a few ordinations through various paths including, but not limited to, Spiritual Humanism, Universal Life Church, Universal Ministries, Trinity Institute of Christian Counseling, New Horizon and many others. I did not deliberately go out to become ordained mind you, I joined and I learned from these places to better myself and my path. I also did not point and click my ordinations, I did earn them through immense hard work. My hobbies vary upon my mood and I enjoy many things, including reading, laughing with my close friends, sisters and brother, and occult studies. I, like my Sister, truly want people to be serious when they decide to take any of our classes, and if they decide to join our Coven, again seriousness is stressed there as well. And, just like my Sister again I take my spirituality very seriously and I hold it dearly to my heart. I am a Wiccan and I practice, live and breathe Wicca daily. And I feel that if you come to the path of Wicca, it is up to you to be serious about it.
