My Beliefs

Okay so I had done this once before in a video that I posted up on YouTube and I thought I'd take another swing at it and post it up on my blog. Here it goes:
First off let me start off by saying that I am a Wiccan. I follow the Pagan nature based religion called Wicca. Now I'm going to put it all together for everyone so that it is easily understandable. Anyways, in Wicca we believe in a God and Goddess. Now most Wiccans follow a specific pantheon such as Greek, Egyptian, or Celtic. I personally haven't connected with a specific God or Goddess yet so I mainly focus on the Sun and Moon as my God and Goddess. Besides that, I also use the Phoenix and Turtle as sort of personifications for my God and Goddess. To me the Phoenix fits perfectly with the God because of the rebirth aspect. Also ,the Phoenix is both fire and air elementally; both of which I consider masculine energies. Now the turtle I use as my Goddess representation because I see the turtle as the great mother. If you look at the Turtle in nature, when a female lays her eggs, she does so in a place she feels safe in. After she lays the eggs, she heads back into the ocean. When the eggs hatch, they instinctively know to head into the ocean and are able to find their way back to their mother. This almost mirrors the Goddess as in the Charge of the Goddess in which it states that "For I am the soul of nature that gives life to the universe. From Me all things proceed and unto Me they must return."  As far as core beliefs, I follow the Wiccan Rede. I also follow logic and science just like any normal educated individual would. I guess another way to put it would be that if I can see it I'll believe it. Reality is perception as a fellow Pagan friend of mine puts it. Now, I think at this time I'm going to stop and direct you all to my YouTube channel under the username Tempestwitch90 . I will be re-posting a video I had done a few months back explaining my beliefs. I want to apologize that this post seemed kind of short and a bit rushed to be honest I'm kinda hungry and I want to grab a bite to eat and have a bit of fun..

Blessed Be~
