For the longest time I was a very in the broom closet solitary pagan and witch. I learned most from books and as time progressed youtube videos. However, besides book knowledge I really didn't explore the crafty side of paganism which I now love so much.
What I am trying to say that we all have a niche. In divination, herbalism, history, kitchen witchery, folk magick, and many others... I started down this path and with no guidance and I could not understand why but I never could get the hang of tarot... I can use them but it wasn't until I found Runes that I really started getting the handle on a divination tool. I also had always loved history and mythology... even before I knew about paganism. However, I am one of those witches that loves to sit at a crafting table for hours making oils and bath salts, corn dollies, and cauldron splashes.
