Hi, I'm Tanwyn and I'm here to speak for the more religious side of magic. My magical practice and my religious practice are tied so closely together as to be virtually indistinquishable. I am a member of Ár nDraíocht Féin, a modern neopagan Druid fellowship. I've also practiced fairly extensively with a number of other neopagan groups, and am currently seeking membership with a gnostic group.

My background is about as varied as my counterpart; Christian - Presbyterian and Anglican, to be specific, Mystic, Shaman, Neo-Druid, Celtic Reconstructionist, and various flavors of Neo-Pagan. I've progressed through and passed on initiation within an oathbound order, I've performed rites of passage and in a strange parallel to my counter-part, funeral rites for my grandmother. I can't claim to have ever personally earned money for any particular part of my religious or magical practice, although I did work on a volunteer basis for the local neo-pagan store for quite awhile.

I'm here to provide a look at the religious side of magic, magic that appeals to the Gods for power. I'm also here to provide a look at the more "traditional" side of magic, magic as you would see it in a lot of ecletic neo-pagan circles, and the potential uses - and abuses - of this kind of magic. Like my counterpart, a lot of my personal practice and personality are going to be reflected here.
