QuoteYou are on the spirituality thread not the philosophy forum.

QuoteSo if it wasn't some sort of sign, it was a hell of a coincidence.
It might depend on when and where you are walking.

If you only know yourself, but not your opponent, you may win or may lose.
If you know neither yourself nor your enemy, you will always endanger yourself.

That's the famous "I think therefore I am" argument right?

You can justify irresponsibility but you can not negate the consequences.

People talk about coincidence like it's a bad thing. Tell me how else would it work? Magic appears to us every day from ordinary places, our belief in it is not prerequisite to its appearance. Flowers bloom, birds sing, the sun and blessed moon rise and set like clockwork. That scientists have devised clever mechanisms by which this all occurs and then declared it figured out does not negate the wonder and the magic in it. If you want to believe it's a sign, then believe it. If it helps you to have peace in your mind about what you're doing, then look for lots of signs; I'm sure you'll find them. The power to control your destiny lies in your own hands. Therefore choose your signs wisely.

Lisa that didnt even make any sense. I must be daft and I am ok with that. You will need to spell it out for me a little clearer.....

Weird, I asked again yesterday and last night I had a very odd dream.

The first part was like a better lit and less green setting of Fallout 3. But It didn't feel very important other that I think I was male in that part. Then it moves on to a modern hotel didn't seem to want to decide on being daylight or night. I remember running into a ghost wolf  3 times. It appeared out of a purple aura and growled at me, but never attacked. I also remember being hesitant around it but never scared.

It turned out I was part of a ghost hunting group and eventually brought a guy, the leader, to see it since it kept appearing in the same area when I went over there. This time a different dog appeared and I remember thinking it wasn't the same dog. I also remember asking who it was since it didn't feel the same and it morphed into a woman. She was shorter than me, had mousy brown hair and big round glasses. She looked haggard as she started to rant about something, all I remember is that it had something to do with solar electric. I also remember asking around and nobody had heard of her. Then I wake up. This second part I was female even though I never saw my reflection.

Though I say dog, they both had looked more like wolves. The reason i'm putting this here is that supposedly my spirit guardians are a wolf and woman. It just seems weird that twice now i've asked for something and gotten a strange response. First it was in Christian's favor, but would this be in Wicca's?
