About Me
Namaste - May the God/Goddess in me greet and respect the God/Goddess in you.
It has taken me a very long time to remember that I am indeed a Goddess.
Once upon a time… we grew up
and forgot that we are born magical, but the beauty and truth of the matter is
that we ARE indeed still very magical beings and that each female is still a
Goddess and each male is still a God.
I am a very well educated witch that has worked very hard to earn this title and knows that I must continue to work even harder to keep it. Also, although we all have the capability to be natural healers (both of magic and Reiki), again I have worked and studied very hard to call myself a natural, yet educated healer. All of my children and my grandchildren are also showing signs that they will be able to utilize these free universal gifts as well but I will gently remind them that we must work hard for our gifts to be effective.
Even though I was raised Baptist
(yes, I forgive myself, lol), I have spent more than twenty years searching for
my own spiritual truth, my own truth.
Along the way, I thought I was lost… but I finally
found my way back.
Through the years I discovered that
magic runs through my very veins
(and I mean this in a passionate way, the way love runs
through the very heart of someone in love)
and at a very ethereal level, as well as a very mystical and genuine way too.
I know that may make me sound ‘special’ but I’m not
– well… not more than anyone else on this planet, just more aware of myself and
aware of the fact that I can manipulate this infinite amount of universal energy
to create magic. But YES, I am special because I am
me and you are special because you are you. I am also magic, but not any more so
than you or your neighbor or the grocery store clerk or your best friend.
Indeed, we are all magic and we all
have access to the same universal energy that is manipulated to create the
magical occurrence that generates these amazing results.
Spells are essentially the same to a Pagan as a
prayer is to a Christian.
When we have faith in our selves and our words and
we project these thoughts and wishes out into the universe, the universe
responds; hence – Magic!
Once I started believing in magic
again, amazing things began to happen to me.
It was like waking up to a dream within a dream.
The colors were more vivid, the sounds more melodic
and the very essence of life (even during times of trial and tribulation) seemed
more splendid.
I now believe in fairly tales and happy endings again.
I believe that fairy dust can give you the best
night’s sleep you’ll ever have and I know that believing in yourself can move
mountains or open doors that you once believed weren’t accessible.
It wasn’t always like this for me,
so as you read this "About Me," I truly hope you don’t think I am the "World’s
Craziest Witch."
I hope you do come to know me personally and get to know
that I have been to some of the darkest places a human soul could go, but I
don’t regret those times. I’ve fallen hard and felt like I would never feel the
sunshine upon my face again or to know the glorious scent of the smell of fresh
raindrops or appreciate the gentle breeze on my neck or to walk barefoot through
the yard.
Quite the opposite.
One of many things I have discovered and am still
discovering every day, is that today I can make a positive choice and hopefully that positive
choice can help someone else make a positive choice and so on.
Most of my life’s experiences, from an early
childhood, to say the very least, have been hard lessons learned, but I would
not take them back for all the moonstones in the world, if one of those
experiences can help one person understand their own pain and to realize that
they too can hold their head up high and love themselves and deserve that self
love just as much as any one else.
Did I always love myself?
Heck no.
Do I every second of every day?
I’m going to plead the 5th,
Haha.
But I try...
My kids love me and I love myself and to me, that
makes me the wealthiest woman in the world.
I have been blessed with children that have forgiven
me of my trespasses and still think I am a good mom. Wow, what magic is that?
;)
Many of the services I offer have
to do with healing.
Most of us walk around not realizing just how much we are
hurting.
I hope to help you become whole and reach some higher level
of enlightenment.
I offer everything from spells to ceremonial commitments,
but what is personally important to me
is Reiki healing.
Universal healing is an amazing thing and I so deeply
desire to help heal the old wounds that keep so many of us prisoners.
Another important thing to me is alternative
addiction recovery.
A great deal of my own demons were ones I sadly welcomed
into my life freely. I didn't know how much pain and personal destruction they
caused during in my active addiction.
For me, the "12 step program" from AA and NA did not
help in my
long term
recovery. Years of abusing drugs,
emotional self abuse and hurting my relationships with my children, family and
loved ones made me realize that I was not powerless over my addiction,
but very much the opposite. I was the only one that had control over my
addiction.
I needed to realize that I loved myself enough to believe,
truly believe, that I am worth a life of happiness, love and freedom of
emotional imprisonment.
Each of us has to take control of their own lives
and take responsibility for their own actions.
“Jake” didn’t make me do it and “Mrs. Jones” didn’t
hold a gun to my head. It was my own free will, and
my own free will is what makes me believe in myself enough to validate my own
life to desire sobriety.
If my life’s mistakes can help one person validate
their own lives and break free from their own prison, whatever that prison might
be, then my life’s lessons have not been in vain.
With all of that said, here is
just a tad more about me.
I am the proud mother to three of the most amazing,
loving people one could ever be blessed to meet:
Danielle, my first born baby girl and mother to my
lovely granddaughter, Layla Belle. Danielle is married to her husband, Shawn. Danielle doesn’t know it yet, but she will be part of the coven one
day, when the magic calls her. My second born and crazy baby girl, Jessica, is
my coven mate and co-founder of our home based business and
on-line company. She is mother to my first born
granddaughter, Marissa Ann and soon to be wife to our other coven mate, Cody.
Finally, my youngest, the coolest Rock Guitar God ever on the
planet, my son Derek. He is also starting to study
the craft as well and think he will be part of the coven soon.
When
I started as a Solitary, Eclectic, Wiccan Witch, but a
year ago, I found myself tasked with creating a new coven, a blended coven of
light and dark magic; some right hand path stuff and some left hand path stuff.
It’s amazing, some old magic blended with some new
magic...
we call it Silver Magic.
I am Reverend Lady Dawn.
I am a High Priestess of the Silver Coven as well as
Healer and Reiki Master.
I study every day, to
the best of my own personal ability, to make my life, the life of my
family and the world a better place. Hopefully since you stopped by, I can make a
positive difference in your life too...
I am an Ordained Wiccan Minister
and would love to help you with everything from that first love spell to your “I
Do’s" and/or Hand-fasting commitment ceremony and everything in between.
The primary focuses of this site
is to help others get magic back in their life, to find themselves again and to
help them love themselves in a way that we didn’t know we could.
I want to be able to give magic back to this world
in a positive way, to show the world that each one of us can make a historical
mark in this lifetime. I desire magic to restore life to others the way magic
restored life to this very humble person.
Blessings, In light and
darkness…
Reverend Lady Dawn
