*peers out from lurking hole* Um, hello?
Hi everyone, I'm ryeduck. Been lurking for a couple weeks and just finally decided to make an account.
So a few years ago I did my first dip into researching paganism and I'm sure you can guess where I ended up first. Wicca and witchcraft. Learned some cool things, but none of it ever felt right for me. Ended up putting it down and moving on thinking that paganism was right out for me as a possible path. Well, lately I've been doing some research into it again and found far more than just Wicca (not that Wicca is bad or anything). I started looking around the various traditions and for a while thought I'd go with Norse polytheism since I have a fascination with runes. However, before I got too far, I figured that maybe I should give the gods of my ancient ancestors their rightful study and consideration. So right now I'm leaning towards Gaelic (Irish specifically) polytheism and am going to be looking into getting a couple books, maybe even start up a little bit of a practice soon. Buuuut, since I'm new to the whole polytheism thing and need to get a feel for it all I'm just going to list my religion as TBD, if that's okay.
In other parts of my life I am just a young guy trying to construct some sort of life together. I love music, games, drinks (coffee, tea, and whisky especially), hiking and camping, some sports (I watch hockey and rugby most), and reading. As well as other things of course, those are just my main things.
Looking forward to talking with everyone and getting to know some of you. You all seem like nice people from the lurking hole, haha
