My Spiritual Journey #5: What Wicca Means to Me
So I've done some soulsearching and research since my last journal entry, and I've decided that in order to bring back the feeling of being spiritually fulfilled I need to make a point to focus on Wicca as a whole and less on the intricacies. I'm beginning to feel overwhelmed and maybe it's better if I start with the big picture.
Why am I Wiccan? I understand the energies the Earth gives off. I understand the concept of maneuvering them. I agree with the idea that all things in nature are masculine, feminine, and hermaphroditic. I also agree that nature regulates itself and everything in it-- plants, animals, humans, insects, and all unnatural things. In order to adapt to change that a species in nature created, nature will accommodate for or against it. I agree that since I am a part of nature I must respect it, show my respect, and thereby attach representing names to aspects of nature in order show it my respect. I feel as though this path best represents how I feel about things I can't see, touch, or taste.
What is Wicca to me? It's a special understanding of not only the natural but the supernatural. It's a reverence for the things that existed before humanity, and a willingness to live in a respectful manner with nature. It is a belief that natural energies can be manipulated, with or without ritual.
