- About Me (Tell Us About Yourself - Phrases and Sentences Required.):
- I have been involved in Paganism for 30+ years. I was 14 when Ram Dass entered my life. I had started to study spirituality from different cultures a year before I met him. I spent many years going to satsang and reading. It was from this beginning, I formed what I called Sherri_izum. Sherri_izum is bits and pieces from religions from around the world which rang as true to me; rang true to my soul.
It was a few years later I learned about Witchcraft and a while after; I became involved with my first teacher of metaphysics and many years passed Wicca came into being, as Wicca is a newer word to house many things, and there are times I feel I do not quite fit there. I am a Hedgewitch; I walk between the two worlds with one foot in each, very much as the crone of the Tradition I was initiated into first told me I did.
At this point in my life my connection with nature is more important to me than any Pantheon ever could be. I have no name for God or Goddess, but I make no judgment one way or another about anyone else's spiritual beliefs. To me all paths climb the same mountain. I have taught craft for about 20+ years. I am the HPs of Cross Roads Coven and a teaching grove. I have on occasion been asked to speak publicly. I do prefer the behind the scenes rather than being in the public eye.
At this time, I teach Wicca for lack of a more precise word, Work from home on the computer, and volunteer in my community weekly. I have more than one job at home but the one most relevant to this site is my shop for Pagans. I am also legal clergy and perform all rites of passage.
- Interests and Hobbies(Tell Us About Your Hobbies - Phrases and Sentences Required.):
- I have many interests and hobbies but I will tell you about only a few. I love to write and have three different books I am writing. My family has been on my case for many years to write at least one book. My husband wants me to write a book about Craft and my children want me to write a book about my life or about Craft. I have decided to write a book about my life and about our pets, in particular in which you will read about in my blogs. The other two books I am just playing with for now and have not really taken any shape.
I also love to garden, after all what kind of Hedgewitch would I be if I did not garden? I am physically disabled and gardening is very hard for me but I am out there doing it any ways. I do herbs, vegetables, and flowers just for their beauty.
Another huge interest in my life which takes up most of my time is training, showing, and breeding rare breed dogs. I entered a breeders training program. I am in my second year now and for an old crone like me getting my brain cells to understand genetic is not as easy as I thought it would be. Some days it is easier than others. This winter we will have our first litter of puppies, this will be a trip a hundred and 120 pound dog is not so easy to maneuver when she is scared.
My time in my community is spent volunteering at the spay/neutering clinic and fundraising for the no kill shelter.
In my copious free time, I do arts and crafts, with my grandchildren.
I hope this gives you an idea of my interests.

Zoriah's Blessing (MY grand-daughters baby blessing/wiccaning)
(Circle cast unnoticed, as not every one is pagan)
We meet in this circle today, to offer blessings for the child of Koren and Francis, and to acknowledge the people they have chosen, to help them guide her through the joys and tears of her life.

Chanting and Meditation
Chants have long been used as a means of altering one's consciousness in order to commune with and connect to the Divine. Chants can be fast moving, energy raising verses or they can be soft, whispered words, heard only by you and the Divine.
The way this meditation works is to simply use a combined of drumming or rattling and chanting until your mind enters into a deeper consciousness, while at the same time retaining enough conscious awareness so you can use this form of meditation to bring… Continue

Symbols and Dream Interoperation
.Even before early humankind learned to draw on the cave, wall symbols were an important part of the human experience. The Universal symbol of an open hand; an open hand or palms turned up was an obvious gesture displaying no weapon. Today and every day, we are bombarded with symbols. Symbols, tell us where to go and how to get there, warn us of danger and give us information at a glance.
Both Carl Jung and Sigmund Freud wrote about universal symbols, specifically for use in dream interpretati… Continue

Cleansing your home
When first coming to the craft, many are taught or learn through books about rituals for creating sacred space. It is not hard to find a lot of information through the internet on how to consecrate and create circles and areas for various magical workings.
However; I have not seen very much information on how to create a magical home. I have found a paragraph here and there scattered throughout various books and on the Internet. On this our Wiccan path, our homes are brought from the mundane w… Continue
