About Me

I was born and raised in Atlanta Georgia. About ten years ago, I moved up to Gainesville, Georgia near Lake Lanier. I have two children. My daughter, being the oldest just had a baby. This would be my first grandson! His name is Travis and both mom and baby are doing great! J.T. is getting ready to get his drivers license and loves paintball, four-wheelers and the guitar. I've got the most awesome youngins' on the planet! I have been a second degree Wiccan for about 5 years. My interests in Wicca became apparent in the mid-70's when I called on, then, the brand new House of Ravenwood in Atlanta; hence, my Craft last name. My interests subsided for several years, even though I continued to seek. It wasn't until the late 90's that My involvment in the Craft peaked, when in 2003, I founded the Coven of Moonshadows, in Gainesville, Georgia. Practicing as a Solitary now, I dream of one day re-starting the Coven. I am generally a Seax-Wiccan with a few Eclectic traits. The Gods I honor most in this path are Dionysus and Aphrodite, Cernunnos and Hecate. I encourage all to embrace nature as I do because we are of this nature. The Sabbats are also a very reverent time of year for me. My two favorites are Samhain and Lughnasadh. All Esbats are equally important to me. Those that are new to the Craft and seeking more information, I encourage you to read everything you possibly can; weeding out good books from the bad ones. Go to the bookstore and let the book pick you out. That's the way I've gotten most of mine! I've had a great deal of cowans ask me why I hate Christians. I do not hate Christians. I love everyone for who they are. I'm just NOT Christian and that really makes it hard for narrow minded people to understand. I look forward to a growing friendship with all my MySpace friends. SO MOTE IT BE! }Layout made by mystressgaia

My Interests

..

I love to read and do photography. All types of photography. Ansel Adams was the best. Harley Davidson is another one of my true loves. When I have a chance, I like to "honk" some on my saxophone. Communing with Mother Nature herself gives me great pleasure, as I feed on Her powers every day.

I'd like to meet:

Just sitting here waiting on MySpace to upgrade!I would love to have met Ansel Adams, the grand master of light! He has inspired me since high school!I would also like to meet Jodie Foster. She has been my favorite actress since she was a little girl. I would also love to have met the great Master, Aleister Crowley in attempts to learn more about the Craft and its not so sinister beginnings. The Abbey of Thelema would be a great place to visit. Other than that, I WOULD LIKE TO MEET YOU!

Books:

All the Harry Potter hype has come and gone, and now it's time to get busy with Book Seven! Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. It's awesome that J.K. Rowling has become the first author billionaire,EVER! I also read a great deal of Wiccan or any subject dealing with Paganism. Stephen King and Dean Koontz are also my favorites. Dan Browns Da Vinci Code was also AWESOME. I haven't read Dan Browns Angels and Demons. That will be next after I finish Harry Potter. Other favorite authors include Raymond Buckland, Christopher Penczak, Edain McCoy, Gerald B. Gadner, Janet and Stewart Farrar, Doreen Valiente, Lady Sheba, Lady Sabrina, Starhawk, Raven Grimassi, Aleister Crowley, Scott Cunningham (which was my first author ever in my Craft journey), Dorothy Morrison, Silver Ravenwolf and Dianne Sylvan, just to name a few.

Heroes:

My favorite heros are all the police and firefighters that worked and lost their lives in the 9-11 attack. Mayor Guiliani also tops my list of heros. He would make this country a great president, I think.
