What is your fear?
When I was just starting out as a witch... I had a lot of fears that the spell wouldn't work out right, that I was opening myself to evil spirits (left over from my Christian days I think) and fear that I wasn't good enough or worthy enough. After my first successful spell/blessing my fears dissapated. So what is/was your greatest fear that may be blocking you? Do you have or did you have a plan to overcome it?

snakes. everytime i have a dream about a snake or snakes something goes horribly wrong in my life, i can never get a full answer on why it just happens. ihate it the most but it can be a fear and a blessing but a fear more because i dont like bad things to happen. even though i know we need them to learn lessons in life .

My fear is being cursed. there was this kid at school who knew alot about magick, and always tried too put curses on me. i would always end up feeling sick and drained of energy. however though this did much damage, there still was good that came of it. after so many times of being cursed i finally decided that enough was enough and that i would look up magick too try and protect myself from him, and through looking up magick i learned about paganism and wicca. so in affect if it werent for him cursing me i would have never discovered either paganism and wicca, and i would have in affect ended up being a very different person than i am now. Therefor a fear is not always completely bad, and you can always end up learning from that fear.

Ha ha, coming from a rather fanatical Christian background, I know that fear of opening myself to evil spirits very well. Pretty much over that now.
Most of my fears I've been able to overcome. I used to be terrified of spiders as a kid. It basically just took getting to know them a little bit to get over it. I started catching them and holding them and letting them crawl over my hands and getting a good look at them. Actually, some of them are kind of cute.
I guess my fears tend to focus on things I don't understand or don't know enough about to know how to react to. As I learn more or have more experience with the things I fear, I get more comfortable with them and less fearful.
These days most of my fears seem to revolve around dealings with other people. I'm basically the shy quiet type that gets along a whole lot better with critters than with those pesky humans.

That's interesting that you have bad luck after having a snake dream. Are the dreams in any way prophetic?
I have a similar thing with turtle dreams. Whenever I have a turtle dream, it seems like something big happens not long after. It's not always a bad thing, but if I have a turtle dream, I tend to stay on high alert for the next few days.

I come from a roman catholic background so the propaganda that I was taught is pretty heavy. What is this propaganda? Well, I think it all boils down to FEAR. It is fear that keeps you questioning Authority (Church & State) & keeps you down on the farm afraid to venture out. I am overcoming this fear by reading about the Church has done to Witches & Free Thinkers in its history. This gets me to thinking how much Hate the Church is steeped in. I try to turn this Energy into Love. Now, where do I find this Love? For me its communing with Nature. There is something that happens in my heart that is truly magikal.

My fear is kindof the same as yours the " evil spirit thing". Lol, mine definetly comes from my past with christianity. I have cast a few spells but then at times I feel, uncomfortable or a lil scared that something evil could come into my spell or my circle. I know that is probably silly but when that is how you are brought up thinking it's hard to get it out of your head. I try to just push it out of my head and ask the Godess to bless me and my spells and keep me safe.

I really don't have any fears! Think about it death is just our natural course it will come when it's ready in it's own way. I've lived the best life I possibly could so I don't fear the afterlife. The remainder of this life I have already faced a great many trials of fear and lived through it just fine. Fear is the mind killer I will let it wash over me and I will be cleansed.
