Hello Earthstars II! I hope this is okay
RESEARCH SUBJECTS FOR GUIDEBOOK: What I'm looking for - other wiccans, transpeople, open minded heterosexuals, the intersex, gays and lesbians, people's opinions on taboo subjects (some taboos are a no, what I don't want is anyone who says we should force ourselves on others sexually or hurt a child), people who have been thoroughly through college, people who understand body and facial language and what we should do with in telepathy and empathy concerning body language/facial reading (this may be separate and a shorter guide), people in the softcore porn industry and people who miss porn/lingerie magazines, just a lot of subjects to cover.
I feel like do no harm encompasses a lot, but there should be a personal guide for myself and other beginners potentially who feel like they need organized yet a little loose law without it being overbearing/too strict.
The guidebook will be free on Dreamwidth @earthstarguide and Amazon. Publically posted anywhere? It'll be a 1.99-2.99 to pay the site and anyone involved will get money paid back to them, if it becomes a success. It's a guidebook for life in terms guidelines/law and the Wiccan religion.
Religions and things I am not interested while we are wiccans and discuss; Christians who are devoutly overstrict and are hypocritical, satanists for various reasons, and extremists muslims who do terror acts. People who do human or animal sacrifices - the answer is no. I don't even want to discuss, it angers Father Sky and Mother Earth. People who hurt animals and children or anyone else. People who hurt animals and children. Atheists and Agonistics are different from satanists, so understand, I am all about talking to you and discussing.

Online Alias: Mandy
Religious Background: When I was younger, I went to a few youth churches for young kids and teens hanging out. I was part of another religion for years, but I rarely went to their church, but they hurt me terribly and I would rather not have a whole religion attacked over it. They'll learn their lesson, because not all did it. I've talked to people in a lot of different religious backgrounds, including heavily Wiccan. A lot of them helped me understand my true beliefs which lead to the Sky Father and Earth Mother. I believe in fate in the stars, in the universe itself, magic in the Earth, just there is a special energy in everything. A Holiness. I recently left the religion I talked about but I always knew I'd become a Wiccan. My mother, Sue Jr, may have been Wiccan as a teen but she never mentions it. I've never been a satanist, I've never been into anything that allows harm or marriage of children. I just know I believe in a Universal Truth, that the Universe is the main God, and we're his/her Earthstars. His children. The the Mother is Earth and she is one too.
Facts About you: I've been writing since I was nine years old. I'm self-educated after not finishing much of middle school and highschool. There's reasons behind that.
I've always been very intuned with the Universe. I heard a bird speak today and say Hi. I almost cried. I knew I made the right decision.
I am a beginner in Wicca, yet I know a lot about the religion. I just feel like there needs to be more laws/guidelines/rules about the whole subject besides that one rule that could mean anything in your view or eyes, it's too broad.
I am a heavy listener of music. I love movies, but haven't been able to watch, I'm just like you and love fandom.
I'm in love. All you need to know.
Dreams and Aspirations: I want to make a semi-free mental health center, that's cushy and caters to people with all problems, especially those who don't have or can't find affordable healthcare or are afraid to go in for mental health. Soemwhere, safe, kind and compassionate, that doesn't judge and offers you help. I'm hoping to do this.
Get an official psychology and sociology degree. I've studied this subject at length and want to go to college for it.
Get married and make babies!
A detail from your past that shaped you: Oh, it's personal but my childhood heavily shaped me while my seven mothers/sisters and The Universe, and Earth shaped and protected me. Some things were bad, some has been bad but there's been a lot of good too.
A detail about your future that you hope for: Helping the world change, helping people become better people and getting humans to love themselves and others more. Sometimes that little change will help anyone and everyone.
What do you love about humanity: I love humanity, it's a beautiful thing. People these days are more willing to help in the face of adversity and become part of a group or befriend someone who is lonely. It's mostly true, but we still need to change and keep changing. We are everchanging like everything else, we go 'quietly' in some ways and then renew with a bang. We are wonderfully made in his and her image.
Do you believe in Fate/Destiny? Where do you believe Destiny/fate comes from?: Absolutely! 100%, I am always getting messages from The Universe. And I believe it comes from Sky Father and Earth Mother. Everything I listen to, and I bet you too, tells you you'll be okay when it comes to music or tells you about your situation.
What do you like about yourself? Are you honest? Forgiving? Compassionate? Simple and complex?: I'm a lot of things, I've finally admitted I'm easily jealous but keep it at bay. Though, never envious. I'm actually open and willing to discuss with people without argument. I'm honest to a good point but sometimes I subvert the truth to help others and sometimes even myself. yet I always tell the truth. I'm always forgiving, slow to anger but quick to cool off, always compassionate and generous, I can be selfish but I am mostly selfless. I care about others deeply and want things to be the way they should be. I won't say I have control issues, I just know I can help change things and I believe others can too.
Have you ever harmed another person? Are you vengeful? Dishonest? A thief? Anything you dislike about yourself and are trying to change?: When it came to relationships, I wasn't a naive girl but I knew I was waiting for the one I call 'Little Sky.' and therefore I had to wait all my life for him. It'll be some few weeks before we officially meet, but we've been talking online. He's a beautiful soul and I love him.
What are some hard no things people do, that you don't agree with?: Oh goodness, I'm against animal abuse, child abuse, domestic violence, violence in real in life in general, people being rude to people with mental illness and not being more understanding, people not understanding why some people do drugs and being so judgemental(even though the hardest thing i've done is weed every now and then) those are my hard nos. For the most part.
Anything else?: I've been writing for over 25+ years. Your name will never be given out to anyone, your personal name, but I want to exchange to become better acquainted, understand you and know you more, not over this though. Okay? Wiccan, Non-Wiccans, and other such people are welcome to discuss.
I intend to use the material I'm given in a structured booklet, where you will be quoted, with a penname/alias of sorts and directed to any publication where they can ask you questions if they wish later on. Though this may be less used, but a precationary measure. Summaries, metaphors, life lesson tales which I want to use from your personal lives but in an anon form, and yes you will read the and review before it gets published. You are welcome to help write as well, your own story and let me proofread or some else.
People I need: Research Subjects who tell their life stories through certain subjects and stay on topic, or even lean into the next story, proofreaders who just want to objectively look through things and have a look into it more personally, people from all walks of life and backgrounds. I do not judge as much as possible.
This may sound strange... but possibly someone who hurt kids in their young teens or even childhood abusively, who realized it was wrong and traumatizing. This means you changed and you haven't done those things since then, I want you to write a topic on why it's disgusting, why it should never happen. Speak to the young child and teenager who needs to get help with my imput too and tell your story in a non-graphic way with anononmity. No perverts please, who just want to drop some creepy stories on me but rather someone who got help in some form or fashion. This is a lot of us surprisingly, and you shouldn't be afraid to approach. Non-judgment! Okay. No adults though, if you're doing it in your adulthood, obviously you're not the right fit.
Even if you write underage fanfic but don't do those things (please, no one who actually does), it's okay, I understand some of us are working through things. I promise.

I don't know why I was banned, when she suggested comments were more or less unwanted for something like this. I didn't disable in order to avoid confrontation but instead not to disrupt my research or hurt anyone's well being. I think the admin even added a new rule that is upsetting but that's okay. It wasn't there before at least.

Are you familiar with the ethical concerns around psychological research with human subjects, especially with regards to sensitive topics that the research subjects may not want connected with their legal name, such as gender identity, sexual assault, or religious conversion?
Are you familiar with the existing literature on your topics of interest?
no subject
Now go ahead and add the comment here, so people can see what you really said or you rewrote so elegantly to prove I'm 'crazy' when I am infact not. Please do not tell lies, it is unbecoming and something we as a society have to let go of in order to get better as whole. You make me sad and melancholy over your need to abuse others and hurt them in such a way. Please meditate and consider why you do these things.

You're a beginner in something and yet you're already coming at it from an angle where you're critical of one of its central tenets and want to change that already? That reads as narrow-minded to me. And then not only that, you plan as a complete beginner in a path to write a *guidebook* for others? So you already think you know enough about it - despite describing yourself as a beginning - to write a guidebook? If you truly know a lot about religion, you would understand how misguided this is at best, and harmful this is at worst.
I'm just like you and love fandom.
...This reads so much like a cop going 'I'm just like you and love drugs' I'm like...wow. In light of all the previous comments oh boy. Troll in the dungeon?
