Not So Wicked Witch Event - My Journey With Witchcraft By Sam Gregory

Growing up, I did not come from a religious family. We learned about religion in school - only one - and it was made to seem that it was the only one that mattered. As a pre-teen I had a hard time with it because people always seemed to fight over it, rather than try to follow it. It didn't speak to me and as I got older, I started reading about other religions. I cannot remember what age I was, but I do remember thinking to myself if other religions think that they are the 'right' one then who is right? Everyone? No one? Rather than being a scary thing, it actually felt quite freeing because I came to the realization that beliefs were just that - our own personal beliefs. If the ones I had been taught didn't speak to me, then maybe another would. I kept reading and I learned about Wicca - it was around the same time that Charmed came to TV and while I knew that was fantasy, it does have elements of Wicca in it. I loved the subject and it spoke to me in a way that other religions didn't. 
I started practising at 13 and I have now been practising for 25 years!
Wicca works for me because I have always had a deep respect for nature. I love that it works with nature and shows us how we are all connected. There is an emphasis on not harming others, but other than that you are free to take your own path.
I find it empowering to be able to perform a ritual (for example) that can help you in a job interview. Rather than hoping or praying that you get the job (as no doubt the other candidates are doing too) the ritual works to bring out the best in you, to help you project your best self in the interview. It also teaches you that if you do not get the job, then it is not meant to be. There is no blame and something better will come along soon.
I read many books over the years and researched online. I do keep my own Book of Shadows which I had specially made about a decade ago.
There are many elements of Paganism in our current holiday already and it is not too hard to incorporate certain rituals into your year.
If you are interested, there are so many great resources available, but don't stress too much about having all the supplies or space to work, as I see this quite frequently. It is about intention and enjoyment. Work with what you have and have fun.
