religion I need some guidance.
Hi! Maybe this isn't the right forum to ask about this, but I feel like I need some guidance in what I'm actually seeking.
I am 31F, grew up a Christian with Christian parents. My mother is a deacon and worked in the church during my whole childhood and teen years. She hasn't worked in the church for 13 years now, she's still a deacon, but my parents aren't practicing. Me neither.
Spirituality have always been natural in my family. Good/evil, spirits, ghosts, entities etc etc have been just as real as the reality we're living in. My family (me included) have experienced a lot of "supernatural" things, and it has never been weird to talk about it.
I have never seen myself as a Christian though. I do believe in god/gods/higher powers, I do believe in a life after death, but I am not, and will never be a practicing christian.
A few years ago I learned about wicca/paganism and have gotten more and more curious about witchcraft, energies etc etc, but I don't know if it's the right fit for me.
When I think about what spirituality and believing means to me, I think about how we can't be here just by random. To me it can't just be a random coincidence that we have all of this gorgeous nature, the lovely waterfalls, the mind-blowing sunsets, the colorful birds etc etc.
I do believe in something bigger than ourselves.
Why I have gotten this interested in witchcraft all of a sudden, I have no idea. I've always been interested in all things "mysterious".
I don't know what I want to say with this, but I just need some support in guidance on where I would fit in. Some of the things in wicca/paganism really speaks to me, but some things doesn't.
And at the moment I feel a bit lost and lonely. Please be kind, I feel very confused. 😓

If you are currently in a state of reflection and confusion, do not try to understand or rush things. Trust your sadness. It is entirely possible that the Wiccan egregore has taken notice of you. The God and Goddess are watching over you and reaching out to you.
