Hi and Greetings to all,
I've been lurking for the past two weeks, soaking in all you have had
to say on my daily digests, and I figured it would be about time I'd
introduce myself.
A little history:
First, I'd like to say (brag?) that I actually had the intense
pleasure of meeting
Susun Weed and eating lunch with her at the
same table when she did an all day talk at Jocelyn Allen's in Ontario.
If Susun reads this, I was the one wearing the brilliant orange dress with little mirrors all over it.
Anyway, I found her to be completely amazing, energetic (all that nettle I presume) ,
intense, intelligent beyond wise, and so much more,
I'm hooked on Susun!!!
Finally Im in a position financially to start taking her
correspondence courses, so I started with the
Wise woman tradition
one. Seemed to fit where I am currently. I've been studying both the
medicinal and metaphysical uses of herbs, trees, plants in general and
crystals too since I was a teen (now thirty-eight) and there is so much more
for me to learn. I am too a Green Witch, to the general public though
I say Im an esoteric non-denominational spiritualist, but I've been
Wiccan for as long as I can recall. My paternal Grandfather was a
chemist and botanist and my mother a nurse, so the healing field is
naturally come by (besides, aren't all women healers anyway???)
I got my first book for my course yesterday (yippee) I was so very
excited, I opened it up, and Susun had autographed it addressed to
me, I actually cried. Not sure why, guess that I was stunned that
someone I respect so much took the time to do that for little ole
me. :-) I showed my two girls ( ten and eleven - both green witches
too) when they came home from school, they thought it was too cool.
Well now I'm off to start reading my first
Susun Weed book.. Bright
Blessings and Green ones at that, to you all, and aren't we the lucky
ones to have found a person like Susun Weed!!!
Keep smiling.
