Paganism Australia

Hello all.

My name is Nathan, i am currently living in Adelaide.

Growing up my mother took me to church as a child, i never felt comfortable there and never really believed i felt at ease or it was for me.

Recently while looking deep inside me i realized something was missing, i took some time out to search for what it is i was searching for, i stumbled across a post about Paganism and the few sentences i read hit me and resonated with me. I have always loved nature and being surrounded by it, i just never looked for this path i guess.

Now i am on a new path in life i just need to find which way to go now as from what i have seen there are many that can be taken by being a pagan. It is a daunting task but i know if i follow my heart and soul that i will find what i am looking for.

I look forward to talking with you all and learning from some of you while i grow.

This is my new begining, my rebirth.

I had a re-birth a year ago...
i became homless and live for nine month in a make shift teepee,during that time my female dog gave birth to five pups.....the rspca took my mum/pups and male gaurd dog...i manage to keep one pup..he was badly burnt from the burning down of my tent /accident /deliberate who knows ...
he was four weeks old and drank milk from my mouth ...i lived in fear...worried that max would be taken from me i cowered in my make shift teepee /tent and did not speak to another human for nearly five months .....mini max is now fully grown ..and living with sum freinds i made along my travels i gave him to them rapped in a sheep skin blanket.....my wolf dog ///my sun ..they were greiving for their dog who had passed...
i know this may seem like insane intenet babble but it is a part of my life that i am trying to recapture a cleansing process i went thru...a cleaning from all human thought ...no time no joy no happiness just plain survival,,,wake eat feed sleep .....my mind felt so free when i first uncowered myself from my den..shivering shaking needing more than what my baby dog could give me i chose to come back to the way of the living human because i knew that as a wild dog i had no chance i needed to come back to this level of comunication to brave the fierce ness of the concrete jungle.. my aim is to escape again run free az the wolf i was born,,,im a dog with a voice a voice with a bark .....to the point in question when i was hunted the only place for me to feel safe was a big air feild bunker underground .....i was still to impure/humanised to choose this option ///fear/tv caused im sure stopped me from totally evacuting from the human race ...i could/should/will ///evade my fear of underground//outside living and i will escape for good ...out of there sight out of there mind away from tv radio signals mobile phone signals ...a free life ////safe ..give me a few more years to totally destruct my human form ///then home i go...

Do you have a Father or Male relative who can prepare you for the coming Rites of Manhood ?
A Man's heart beats differently to that of a Woman's; therefore it is something a Mother cannot teach their Son.

Hi Nathan, I believe that we as a society want to peg hole people and put names and lables and restrictions on everyone and everything.......I have always believed there is something bigger than me out there and was never sure what that is. I feel comfortable in church, however, I still believe there is something more than that. I am wondering and tyring to find my path.......and I am enjoying every step it takes me on.......enjoy your journey with those around you ....blessed be.....

The Saga Continues....

Well, the RSPCA Inspector came about an hour ago now. It took 10 minutes to wake BJ from his hidy-hole next door. They've taken him down to the vet.

Grant got home about 10 - 20 minutes after they left. He went off his nut. I told him if he hit me or got aggressive with me I would phone the police. Once again it was all my fault. He reckons he can get BJ back, but that isn't an option. He tried to phone the RSPCA office but they are shut for lunch, so he has gone down there.

Basically he has t… Continue

An Update of the Cat

I've managed to have a good look at BJ and the rubber band issue. It really does need to come off. He's a wriggler so I'm going to wrap him in my quilt and hold him down while I take it off. It's not done any damage that I can see.

I keep telling my housemate that it is classed as cruelty to animals and last night I told him I would be phoning the RSPCA first thing in the morning and reporting him (I had no response to lodging the complaint through their website). He proceeded to tell me that i… Continue

I hate people who are cruel to animals

My housemate has just tried to desex his male cat himself by typing a rubber band around it's balls. As far as I'm concerned that's not on so I went to the RSPCA website and reported him. I told him I would and he didn't believe me. He's now trying to get the cat out from under the house.

I got so upset when he did it. I think I get more upset when I see people cruel to animals than I do when people are cruel to each other. It's something that I really really hate and am passionate about stoppi… Continue

Yep, finally decided to do it...

Change my name that is. (I bet you were thinking something rude...lol).

I've been thinking about changing my name for most of the year. My name does not represent who I am now. My name was given to my by my Mother. My Mother and I are currently astranged, although I'm hoping that will change in years to come.

I've decided on two names. One will be my witchy name, that I use on the forums and any writing, pagan crafts, etc, I do. The other will be my new legal name. Both names will be connected… Continue

Popping my blogging cherry...

So, i'm completely newb-ish at the art of blogging. I had a live journal once, a long, long time ago (back when life had me in fits of laughter at every turn, and therefore worthy of publicising =/)... but lately i've been yearning for an outlet. Life's not throwing me so much comedy anymore; but i guess my small tragedies are equally worthy of public viewing... even if it's to have someone else to laugh at them.

Okay. So i've moved town; was in Melbourne, now in Bendigo. It's a nice place, as… Continue
