From: Ceri 
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Geepers I hate doing this  Oh well into the deep end... For the
benefit of anyone here not familiar with me here's one of those dreaded
Introductions.

I'm known as Ceri / Rachel / Rai / Brigit / Teggles (Long story)/ call
me anything but late for lunch... Rai (formally 'Ray') being the
preferred name, but it's difficult to escape the "Teggles/Tegwen" label
 ..   I'm OK now... seriously


I've been told I'm the wrong side of 40, on this path for over a 1/3 of
my life.  meaning over a _decade_ guys, not that I'm 15 & wiccan
for "5"  I'm _Wanton, Wiccan &
Wonderful_  OK W.A.S.P. (Wiccan Aussie Sexy Pagan) ... OK if you
haven't guessed, my path has a strong humor element, I see humor as a
form of magic, a weapon and a shield. It also useful to handle my
Aphasia...

I was raised by parents who religiously were more culturally academics
than anything else. My Missionary Aunt was my main contact with
Christianity. She was the 3rd family member I 'outed' myself to with
surprisingly more positive results than one may expect ... OTOH I know
someone who's close to fanatical about his personal Atheism 

My personal aim for this path is to make contact with my (pre-christian
European) ethnic origins. So I tend to treat the commercial re-writing
of 'pagan' history with the same cynicism as the Christianized version.
I recognise that there is _NO_ pan-pagan culture. That just as the
different Pagans in the Park in SE Qld are all slightly different...
