About Sacred Journey ~ Untamed Path

“A Witch, after all, is an extraordinary symbol. Independent, anti-establishment, strong, and proud. She is political, yet spiritual and magical. The Witch is woman as martyr; she is persecuted by the ignorant; she is the woman who lives outside society and outside society’s definition of woman.

“We are not evil. We don’t harm or seduce people. We are not dangerous. We are ordinary people like you. We have families, jobs, hopes, and dreams. We are not a cult. This religion is not a joke. We are not what you think we are from looking at TV We are real. We laugh, we cry. We are serious. We have a sense of humor. You don’t have to be afraid of us. We don’t want to convert you. And please don’t try to convert us. Just give us the same right we give you, to live in peace. We are much more similar to you than you think.”

~Margot Adler

The spiritual path we all take is a very personal matter. It should be studied, contemplated and explored to find the way that all the pieces will fit together to give the most complete sense of balance to life.

Learning about Witchcraft can be a difficult journey, wrought with a lot of hocus pocus, misinformation and downright scare tactics. Like any lifestyle and belief system, the ideas and history of the Craft are sacred to us. Sometimes it’s a guarded sense of wondering why the questions are being asked.

For those of us who practice this lifestyle, there is a very public and violent history. Even now in this modern society, beginners of the Craft can be uncomfortable when questioned about their beliefs.  Without a solid education about there path the novice can be left feeling alone and bullied by those who aren’t interested in tolerating anyone else’s beliefs. It’s common for those outside the pagan community to persecute us and say that we can’t defend a certain point or mock our silence, or lack of a clear cut answer to who and what we are.

To that end, I’m now offering classes from the basics to the more skilled levels of Witchcraft handed down to me from the Celtic/Norse teachings of my mentor who was taught from her mentor down through the ages to the present.

It is within these teachings that one may feel safe to enjoy and study the ancient wisdom of the ancestors through the Spirit-Family Based learning of Sacred Journey~Untamed Path.

If you’re truly interested in Witchcraft, but don’t yet have the skills or sound bites necessary to bring comfort to your beliefs, then won’t you join us and see if what we teach at SJUP is right for you?
