Hey guys! I prefer to be called Chaz, although that isn't my real name, and I'd describe myself as being a very passionate and creative person. I love learning and creating art, whether it be painting, making music, or writing. I also enjoy reading , mostly non-fiction but some fiction as well.
I stumbled across this site while studying the Craft and made an account immediately haha .. I'm particularly interested in herbalism, botany, crystals, astral projection, and green witchcraft in general. I hope to learn as much about everything as possible; knowledge is power ! I joined this coven to converse with like-minded witches and practitioners and learn from each other !
Feel free to message me and add me as a friend, I'm always looking for witches to talk with as I know none personally !

Hello! I have a bunch of different names, my birth name is Shea, but you can call me Liska, Foalan, or anything else you can come up with!
I'm probably the youngest in this coven at 15, but that alright! I have years left on me still and it leaves room for learning new things and doing new stuff! I love to sing, and I love art. I also love any sorts of nature, and any forest is my home.
I came to SoM in early 2015 id have to say, maybe 2014.. and I have another account, but I don't use it due to multiple bugs such with messaging and other weird things, so I use this one!
I've been studying magick for probably three or four years ish, and I've been practicing for two on and off, but I'm gonna practice more because its fun and it makes me feel free and tranquil.
I really hope within this coven I can learn more about magic from real people instead of books, and I hope to meet some great people with the same interests and ideas as I.

Guess who's back? Back again. Percy's back. Tell a friend.
I came to SoM almost 10 years ago. I've been a member of several of the covens here, council of a few, and priestess of a handful.I am a Heathen in the most general sense, and as nontraditional as they may come. I study and practice Norse Paganism and Northern Tradition Shamanism. I include a variety of deities in my studies, notably: Loki, Fenrir, Mimir, Surtr, Rindr, Angrboda, Aegir, Ran and the Wave Maidens. A large portion of my practice revolves around nature, and as such I work closely with the landvaettir (spirits of the land) and some of the more primal elemental jotunfolk.
On a personal note: I most recently received a Masters in Environmental Science. I have a Bachelors in Fish and Wildlife. I've worked as a wildlife biologist for the last few years. And now I am a teacher. Nature is special to me, and I spend a lot of time in it: exploring, learning, and growing. I hope to share that love of nature with you all.
I love gaming and play on the PS4 quite a bit. Horror movies and fantasy/sci-fi are my thing: Lord of the Rings and Star Wars are the best. I have Darth Vader envy. I live in a happy home with my fiance, cat and husky. And I can eat a shameful amount of pasta.
I'm hoping to find a group of like-minded members here in Natural Magick, and together form a tight-knit group that explores various topics together while becoming friends. If you ever need anything, do not hesitate to mail me! Much loves.

Hello. I prefer to be called Amethyst. I am an introvert and a bit of a girl geek. I am currently employed in a day job and trying to find one that is more challenging but with less negativity. I enjoy gaming, crochet, photography, and cooking, I also like to read when I have time, and I volunteer.

Hello!
I like to be called either Beth or Azura.
I'm 34 yrs young and a manager in retail and sales. I live with my three cats and one dog. I have a passion for the outdoors, and spend a good chunk of my time on the local hiking trailsor camping, work permitting.
I'm very outgoing, friendly, and a lover of life and the outdoors.
Right now I work entry level management. I'm a shift leader in sales and retail. One day, I'd love to work my way up to owning my own store.
I just joined a few weeks ago to find others who practice. I'm from a very religious area. There aren't many covens around here so I've always been a solitary. I finally decided to take the plunge and find a group online to join!
Out of all the covens I looked at this one offers what I work with.
Tarot is an area I've never had any luck in. I'd like to work on that.

Howdy everyone. You can call me Vosh, and I used to be on this site as kurost as well. I have been practicing magic for about 11 years now and focus on banishment and shielding. I follow bits and pieces of many paths but I take a lot of inspiration from Wiccan and Daoist beliefs.
In my non-magical life I'm a part time picker (I buy and sell things) and currently working at a speedway on the side. I have been emt-b certified (my cert is currently expired and I need to renew it) I went to college for 2 and a half years before I became Deathly ill and had to stop. I want to go back someday.
I'm a avid gamer and reader, and love learning new things. In my old coven I had a series of creation guides I wrote for basic tools and such for castings. I really want to start that up here so if you have any ideas on something you would like to see send me a message.
Be well

Hello Everyone!
I'm Agaroth, but feel free to call me Arc, it's short for Arquiliaq, a name that helped me set parts of myself free, also I like the idea of an actual Ark(it sounds almost the same), because I like to collect various sources and books in pdf before someone decides to censor it. :D I'm not very new on this site, I've had another account, that was here for a year before it was gagged, I've met some great people along the way, even some, that know things, that now I'd rather not say, unless asked of course. :D
I am an ambivert- I like to make new friends, but enjoy some alone time to order my thoughts as well. I have been through some rough times, yet thanks to them as well I am here, thanks to them I am who I am. I consider myself to be a family-oriented person, even if it means to have a smaller circle of friends, from which only few know of my activities here because they are not yet ready to understand. Which is also why I would like to make new friends here, who can understand why I do what I do. Currently thanks to my studies in the occult arts and my experiences with them I am working on repairing, what needs to be repaired and made better, even if it means to dig up old memories and analize them, so that they can be understood in a new point of view. Yet somehow I have a probably weird habit to see myself as a father figure already, which has partially been explained in an past-life experience, that I had almost a year ago.
Music is an important place, where I find peace. I also enjoy hiking, even if I go quite unregularly, but the experience collected there have brought up questions, that I would like to uncover here. I love to learn, but to help with what I learned as well. I enjoy watching movies, that make you think, yet nowadays it's difficult to find a good movie, because one has to filter out much to find some gold in form of briliant thoughts.
What brought you to Spells of Magic?
It's a bit harsh to say, but the will to survive has brought me here. As I've mentioned, I've had a rough time, yet the fight is going on, but this time I know more about it, than before. Feel free to ask more.
Do you have any other usernames people may know you by?
Yep, the first account is called 'Arhock', I've had the honour to get help from Agiel. But at that time I had to go through other lessons and I have not shown proper gratitude for his time, so I would like to apologize for that here and now.
Do you have a specific practice, magical interest, religion or path you follow?
I am so far doing the LBRP and the Middle Pillar Ritual daily, but I have experience with meditation and energy work- mainly using my own energy touched by the properties of my inner element to melt and crush astral weapons, that have been attached through the holes in the aura of my mom, which also includes using the energy to cleanse and close the wounds afterwards. I also got the gift of seeing(with my 'inner sight'- it works like seeing the energy field/aura but not yet in colour),hearing different beings(it's difficult to know who is talking, but I'm learning to differentiate by analyzing what intention or goal it may follow), sometimes, in some occasions, spirits of people I've known and they passed away, come to talk to me(I see and hear them at the same time), or talk through me to my mum, if I allow them, once even the spirit of Robin Williams came to speak to me for half a minute(it was thanks to my spiritual guides, who wanted to show me, that I can speak also to people I didn't know in person), but in cases when I allow them to speak through me, it's quite exhausting.
What do you wish to learn?
I wish to learn to enhance my abbilities and learn new. In areas of healing, defending(I still have to learn new to get rid of the dark spirits or whatever they are) and communicating mainly. But I'm interested in learning how to use the crystals I have at home as well. Another area I'd like to learn about is about the beings , that can be found in forests as during the day they are very friendly and kind. :)
Why did you join this coven?
I joined this coven, because it unites all, that I wish to work with, that it may be place, where I share the thoughts of my spiritual guides for the first time since I started writing them down and help with my experience whoever I can.
So, that would be about me. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. :)
Be well and may your journey bring you all, that you seek!
Sincerely yours,
Arc
P.S.:I have the CET time, and soon the winter-semester will start again, so I will do my best to be as often as possible here. :)
