Communion Wafers!

I've dabbled in Wiccan myself, I say dabbled because I don't feel "Wiccan" and I don't know a whole lot. I understand the Basics, I've atteneded a few Coven rituals, and tried a few rituals on my own, but I think i'm missing that "a ha!" moment that makes me feel like this is what I'm looking for. I actually feel alot like you, being raised Christian has ingrained so much into me, I can't just shut it off. I love the concepts, spirtiualty, freedom and the individuality of wicca, but still cling to the basics of christianity.

The first coven ritual I was involved with, we drank mead and ate banna nut muffins! (this was before I was dx'd). It was amazing!

Dear SunnyDyRain,

I have been practicing Wicca for four and a half years now. I invoke God and The Virgin Mary as the God and Goddess. Did you know there was Christian folk magic at one time? It ended due to the massive murders during the Burning Times. It was funny how I got into Wicca. I received a Pyramid Collection catalog. I saw the Witchcraft stuff in it, including the Witches' hippocratic oath of "Harm None." I was always taught Witches were evil, sold their soul to the devil, etc. I had to learn more! So, I began reading books, and I thought this was a good thing for me. I was unsure, though. I asked God, "If this is what you want me to do, send me a sign!" Sure, enough, he sent three! You cannot mistake a sign from Him. He is very clear. Other people say this is rediculous, but God seems to want me to do this. I believe he has a special path for us all. My father is more supportive than my mother. My mother is afraid for me to do rituals because she has this absurd notion that demons will start popping up out of nowhere! :lol: I told her, your intentions being good will never attract or summon one. It appears she is the one who does not have much faith. If she did, she would believe God would protect her from that. The feeling I got when I consecrated my tools was amazing! There was this beautiful peacefulness and energy that I never felt before. I think the only other time I felt that was when I was saved at a Carmen concert. I am a solitary practitioner, because I do not know of any others who have my beliefs with Christianity and Wicca combined around here.

Sincerely,

NoGluGirl

This is getting a little bit off topic as it is about "Communion Wafers".

A new thread would be appropriate on the "Gab/Chat Forum", with no offense to anyone or any discussion, but it is veering away from the originality of the thread.

      Great advise there I agree with the aniexty part, and the aura migraine has I suffer both, I've also read some great books that have helped I'm going too look the one you mentioned up too thankyou for that, I find a camomile tea just a small one and a gentle wind down before bed has helped me too, I suffer from restless leg syndrome and nerve pain hence I don't always sleep well at the best of times , racing mind catches up I have decorated my whole house in one night in my mind before 🤣 diet changes mindset really help , although I have to say it never just disappears, I find once I came to terms with who I am I managed a lot better  , a misconception is for many to change , that means to heal but that's not always the case , understanding and finding your coping mechanisms are vital tools , it's more productive to find that because there is no failure then no pressure to become something else , it's ok to be sad it's ok to not sleep , it's ok to worry , just try to see it has a journey not a task 🤗

      I agree there I've tryed this myself to prove I can't eat gluten or lactose and it sets me back for about a month till I have to go back to being very strict to settle again

      You may also need to supplement with B12 as this vitamin is also involved in iron assimilation and is often deficient in long-term undiagnosed celiac disease.

      @par18, no, Scott's use of the term "false negative" is intentional and appropriate. The "total IGA" test is not a test used to diagnose celiac disease per se. The IGA immune spectrum response encompasses more than just celiac disease. So, "total IGA" refers to the whole pie, not just the celiac response part of it. But if the whole pie is deficient, the spectrum of components making it up will likely be also, including the celiac disease response spectrum. In other words, IGA deficiency may produce a tTG-IGA score that is negative that might have been positive had there not been IGA deficiency. So, the tTG-IGA negative score may be "false", i.e, inaccurate, aka, not to be trusted.

      This may be the problem. Every time you eat gluten it is like giving a booster shot to your immune system, telling it to react and produce antibodies again.
