Everyone is Better than Me!

Everyone is Better than Me!
They can recite the Wiccan Rede by heart.
They have a wardrobe full of colour co-ordinated outfits and stunning silver jewellry.
They know everything about what goes at which point on the altar.

Everyone Is Better than Me!
There is no room in the Coven for an old crone amongst the young shiny ones.
I fumble my words and cannot put together a rhyme for the life of me.

I feel so foolish!
I cannot be open with my family and they make me feel silly for 'dressing up".
I cannot remember if the moon is waxing or is it waning?

My spells are mediocre - I cant afford to be all the ingredients and cannot make them at home.
My family doesn't like the smell of incense.

Everyone is better than Me!
They know the names of all the famous witches who have Facebook pages and 'go live'.
I often feel inferior and it certainly doesn't feel like all 'love and light' to me.

People call me stuck up - because I don't say much.
I do't say much because I'm too scared to end out sounding stupid.

What if I don't know which Goddess does what?
Or what Sabbat is coming up next?

Have you ever felt inferior in your group of witches?
Have you wanted to slink away in a corner when you have turned up in jeans when everyone else is wearing their latest outfit?
Witchy groups are no different than any other group - there will be those that like to lead, and those that quietly follow.
There will be the younger groups and if you look hard enough there will also be groups filled with older witches.
The thing is to try out your tribe and if you feel you don't fit for what ever reason ...go find another one.

There is a reason why some witches remain solitary.
The act of being with others can be too intense.
It can be too confining.
It can be too confronting.

If your journey is to go it alone whether it is because you have felt intimidated by others in the past, then THEY not you have not been coming from a wholesome place.

If your journey is to go it alone because you work better that way it does not make you weaker.
Or any worse than being in a coven.

This path is so varied that you can do and be whoever you want to be.

Go - Search - Be.
