Or maybe that should be Jill-of-All-Crafts. I often feel scattered and distracted in my
Craft work. I have so many interests in
so many paths and so many subjects, I can’t seem to focus on any single one. This is not to say that I’m a master at any
of them. I can’t seem to settle down
enough for that! Part of the problem might
be that I’m still somewhat new to the Craft.
Is three years enough to not be a newbie anymore? Part of it is that I don’t spend as much time
on it as I’d like. Although that one
might actually be because I’m too intimidated by all the subjects!
In what am I interested, Craftwise, you ask? Name it. Just off the top of my head: Candle and knot and moon and water and elemental and gemstone
magick. Elixirs, herbs and powders. Wicca and Gypsy and Aztec and Shamanistic paths. Celtic and Gardnerian and what seems like a
hundred other Wiccan paths. Tarot and
scrying (fire and water) and pendulum divination. Aromatherapy and chakras and astral
projection. Meditation and ritual and
spellcrafting. Cottage and Kitchen and
Green and Dark Witchery. And of course each topic has a zillion small parts, most of which I find interesting!
I need to sit down and work out a priorities list, like I’ve
done for my life overall. Force myself
to focus on one thing at a time. These things
are not always necessary for me in the Craft—often I can just feel what’s right
FOR ME. I get a tingly, uplifting, energetic
feeling when I encounter such things—when I read a spell that I know will work
for me, or when I find conflicting information on a witchy topic. But it only seems to happen for small,
specific things, not broad categories.
Anyone else out there have too many Craft interests?
