HI all, I know initiation is a hot topic in some circles, but I'm curious if you all have thought about initiations and what your opinion is. And I have included a downloadable outline that is open to the public on my Patreon page. patreon.com/user?u=81471992&Link
What a gorgeous moon plate! I love it. I have never thought to initiate myself. But it may be in the cards in the future. Thanks for the inspiration! xo, A
Thank you. A friend of mine made it, but I think they are retired now. I actually dedicated myself to a Deity before I was inititated into witchcraft formally, although I had been practicing for almost 20 years. xxoo, Colette
Self~Inititation? Come on :) The only thing we can do ourself is a dedication An example would be sexual initiation, do it yourself alone,anyone :D another example of initiation could be marriage,try to get married alone :) Whose husband or wife is a single person? :D Initiation is a process that we cannot start on our own You can't create something out of nothing you can only receive it from someone who received it from someone etc. etc. etc. Self-initiation is like self-fertilization we can't start a pregnancy without "initiation"/someone who will give us a seed or egg cell :) Self-initiation is another product of modernity :( Self-dedication is the only thing we can do alone (and dedication does not initiate anything) Initiation is like being introduced to a new family or community we need this family/community, someone who is part of it and will introduce us to it "self-initiation" is like breaking into someone's house without permission or announcement "because I want to be part of your family" :D "let me in,let mi in, I'm a good person,accept me" or like impersonating a member of someone's family which doesn't even know us

Self~Inititation? Come on :)
The only thing we can do ourself is a dedication
An example would be sexual initiation, do it yourself alone,anyone :D
another example of initiation could be marriage,try to get married alone :)
Whose husband or wife is a single person? :D
Initiation is a process that we cannot start on our own
You can't create something out of nothing
you can only receive it from someone who received it from someone etc. etc. etc.
Self-initiation is like self-fertilization
we can't start a pregnancy without "initiation"/someone who will give us a seed or egg cell :)
Self-initiation is another product of modernity :(
Self-dedication is the only thing we can do alone
(and dedication does not initiate anything)
Initiation is like being introduced to a new family or community
we need this family/community, someone who is part of it and will introduce us to it
"self-initiation" is like breaking into someone's house without permission or announcement
"because I want to be part of your family" :D
"let me in,let mi in, I'm a good person,accept me"
or like impersonating a member of someone's family which doesn't even know us
Thanks for your perspective.
