Hello Earthstars!

NAME: Amanda/Mandy / [personal profile] strawberryshake
AGE: 34
ABOUT: I'm a young woman living in America. I am upset at the state of affairs in the world, but I'll be okay. I'm disabled at current, a little too weighty due to events in my life I couldn't control. I'm trying really hard to get better at some things.

I recently gave up a Christian religion, because I was being hurt by the people there, and I've decided to try Wicca and put down my own set of rules which will be posted to my journal eventually in full. I may make a Wiccan guidebook on dreamwidth and have other put their imput. I know everyone has their own interpretations of things, but I want to help is all for newcomers or someone who wants a little more structure.

I've actually been studying through other people on and off for many years, so I know more than it looks even though I have no objects in my home at current. I might have to hide from my mother, until I can get out on my own. I actually want physical copies of books, but I need to put it on a kindle for awhile or something. I'm interested in; candles, crystals, tarot, herbals, wordless magic, incense, and beaded bracelets for protection.

I've studied psychology all my life, but! I need an actual certified degree to work online and out of my home with others. I think it'd be interesting and I'd love to make it part of my life. Another dream is to actually find a 9 room affordable mansion, and with plenty of downstairs rooms and turn it into a semi-free 18 patient mental health rehab.


POSTING STYLE: What I normally post about are short posts and lengthier posts about my day and life, reviews of media I watch/play/listen to and read, and probably stuff on wicca as I start to learn and read about it.

COMMENTING: I love to comment, but I am selective about what interests me. I may come off as nerdy/geekified the way I talk and explain myself at times to you and comment about your life. What word am I looking for? I come off like an asshole sometimes, or at least I feel that way. I feel like I may comment a lot but it's been so long since I've had friends. So forgive me if I seem alien? I want comments too though, so don't forget me! I love to discuss and debate and see what makes others tick, and see what kind of person they are. Don't be afraid to be honest.

INTERESTS / FANDOM: Wicca and Christianity, Squareenix games, Capcom Games, Konami Games, Project Zero Games, JRPGS (not really found of European style), CW, NBC, Conan O'Brien, Jimmy Fallon, Psychic Gifts, doing reviews, Movies, Books, Languages, The Ocean/Beach, Blankets, Pretty shinies, Chapstick, make-up, cold weather and light warm weather, nature, camping, good hygiene, video game and ambient soundtracks (I'm still an Enigma fan after 23 years and it never gets old)

LOOKING FOR: Between 23 or older. My purpose for this rule is young people as much as I love them and try not to judge, may not understand my views as a person but older people tend to be more open minded than you're thinking, because they've lived life. My other mom, Jean, untethered to any religion besides possibly the one I'm about to study? She's non-judgmental and tries not to think about those things too that bother her about others. I'm quite the same and she's in her 40's, so I enjoy her company and love when she gives her opinions. I cut it off at anyone who is devoutly hypocritical and Christian without practicing what you expect from others. But Christians and people of other religions are welcome.

Fandom people are always welcome! I don't keep up on the news of some of my favorite fandoms and could use some news from other fandoms. Anything from what I mentioned, is a yay.


ANYTHING ELSE?: I welcome any political party, any religion except radical Christians and Muslims who hurt others when others aren't being overtly devout in their eyes but please, don't shove your views down my throat and I won't do the same to you. What you say in your journal is your business and if I comment, it means I want to discuss, or agree and if we discuss, I may be disagreeing somewhat. I will never demean and call you wrong or a liar, there is so much I have yet to know and yet I know nothing and a lot because we all live underneath the same sky, breath the same windy airs and share the same Earth.

I WANT TO ADD YOU!: comment here or leave a private message. Alright? I'm ready for friends after a long four years of not having them!

Hey!

I'll be 30 next month, and I too live in America during this phase called "why the hell is Trump even here?" Sounds like you're of like mind?

I'm disabled as well. I'm autistic and have a not-so lovely array of mental illnesses. Your dreams sound wonderful!

I used to study religion a lot, but I've settled down to a boring Taoist Methodist. HA! I studied Wicca and Paganism for a long time, along with Eastern religions, so no judgement here. ;) I don't use Tarot anymore, but I could still be of help if you ever want any. I even have some Tarot spreads I made-up, and if you want to, I could share them with you? I'd love to see them being used by someone. :D

I have a new post on here at the top of the page. Care to add?
