Hello everyone. I'm Pen. I'm new to this site, new to Wicca and eager to learn. I have learned - the more I learn the more there is to learn. As it is difficult to find a teacher, I am hoping this site will help me along my journey. I live in the Palm Springs California area. Is there anyone here close by?

Hello everyone. I'm Pen. I'm new to this site, new to Wicca and eager to learn. I have learned - the more I learn the more there is to learn.

Hello and Welcome Pen,

I am delighted you found us....we are definitely here to assist others in their path...remember being solitary and finding your Own path is always best. I would suggest wandering around our castle here and learning what you your heart calls out to you, and then if you have questions or suggestions, ask them here...we ahve some wonderful, wise souls here from all different paths....and since you are new to the path, it is best to look for a teacher until you find a secure place to stand within yourself.

Many people look for teachers only to be dismayed and disillusioned by all the egos and hype involved....this path is one that comes from within....when you are ready a teacher/mentor will appear for you and aid you in your journey....not dictate what you should and should not learn...

welcome to the family here, and I hope to get to know you better int he days to come....by the way, my sister's name is Penny!

Blessings Bright and Dark,

Thanks for the Welcome.

I haven't met many Penny's in my life. The ones I have met are usually nicknames. I believe I have met only two whose birth names were Penny. My father who passed on in 2000 would call me Pen. Is Penny your sister's birthname or nickname?

I have also told a friend about your site. She too is just beginning on this path as is my daughter who has been researching wicca for several years. It was one of my daughter's books by Scott Cunningham that lit the fire within me.

Thanks again for your welcome and this site.

Welcome Pen
Glad you found the castle, enjoy.
And you are so right, the more you learn, the more there is to learn. Or is it that in learning we learn and admit we know nothing and contiue the search and therefore growth.
Any way, hope to get to know you better.

Sundown

Lovely to see you here Pen. We have a greatfamily here full of wonderful people with huge amounts of wisdom. The castle is bulging with handy info. Good luck with your path, and please feel free to ask and join in on the forums.

We are all on the same journey of learning. And yes it is safe to say one thing we all have learned is that we are never finished learning.

Have fun. Ask as many questions as ya like, and don't be shocked when you get as many different answers as there are people within the castle! lol.

Hello and welcome Pen. Ask as many questions as you like. I enjoy the research for answering them (and it helps me learn as well). Browse around. We have much information that should help you figure out the best questions to ask.
