Have you gone through your Year and a Day? If so, I'd love to hear from you! If not, I could use your input too!

Hey friends!

Well, I'm making some progress through making the lessons and exercises how I want them. Finished day 1 and 2 yesterday, but will probably add more to it.

For those of you who have gone through your Wiccan year and a day course, what sort of exercises did your Priest/Priestess have you do? Did they have you meditating for the first couple weeks, or something completely different like maybe a workbook? I know some traditions are sworn to secrecy, but ANY input would be very helpful as I do this.

I also wanted to note that unfortunately I'm having to refer to the internet for the majority of my research, so PLEASE correct me if I give invalid information or if you find another solution from a particular reputable author. If you submit this information, please make sure to include where you got it from (i.e. author, book, and passage or chapter it came from!) so that I can add it into my sources.

For those of you who have not gone through any type of study course, what would help you improve on your practice? What's something that you feel would help you in your magickal studies? What do you feel you could do more of? What do you feel your greatest strengths and weaknesses are in practicing Wicca?

Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thank you all so much for reading and blessed be!

Preparing for the 30-Day Wicca Challenge

Hello and Merry Meet!

In preparation for this challenge, I wanted to make some suggestions.

First, I would suggest buying a journal to accompany you all during your 30-day challenge. I know I will be purchasing mine soon. While I have a Book of Shadows already, for this I'd like to start out fresh as I've never done anything quite like this before. It doesn't have to be a leather journal or something expensive. I know you can find cheap journals at Walmart or the dollar store for very reasonable prices, or even better use a journal you already have!

(Above: Composition notebooks are a great option for this challenge. You can see they range in design and color as well as price. I got mine from Walmart for only $2.47!)

Next, come into this with an open mind and be ready to explore Wicca on all levels: mentally, physically, and spiritually. All I'm asking you is to take 10-20 minutes a day to work on your daily exercise, and I promise you by the end of this we'll all come out stronger in our practice.

Please subscribe to my youtube channel for these lessons http://www.youtube.com/user/lunahwolfspirit1

Thank you all so much!

Welcome to my blog, and Planning the 30 Day Wicca Challenge!

Hello, fellow bloggers and "youtubers", as well as other fellow Wiccans and Pagans!

I wanted to create a blog to go along with my videos in assistance with this 30-Day of Wicca Challenge. I created it for those of you who prefer to read along with the lessons of this challenge, and use it as a tool for your Books of Shadows perhaps.

I want to note first to everyone that I'm no expert, nor am I ordained in ANY particular tradition or path. I prefer to remain solitary for now until I can find a teacher that fits me. I live in a VERY Christian, remote town in Virginia, and I feel that until that situation changes, I must make do with what I have. Therefore, I have to turned to YOU, my fellow bloggers and v-loggers, for my inspiration and connections along my path and so forth.

I am still in the development stages of my 30-day Wicca Challenge, but have no fear for I will let you know ahead of time when I will be starting Day 1 in case you wish to follow along with me!! :)

So far, here is what I have for the breakdown:
