Hi, my name is Stephanie Krystle (I use both my first and Middle names as i often go by one or the other) Most people call me Krys. I am 37 (almost) and Live in Ontario Canada near Toronto! I have been into herbal medicine since I was about 12. I am what many would call a Christian Druid. The Druidic path encourages us to see all study all and suffer all... what better way to learn to bridgethe gap between my pagan friends and Christians but to learn about both. Christianity has taught me to love all my brother's and sisters here on Earth, regardless of religion, orientatin, etc.
I have tried many herbal remidies, from rasberrry leaf from cramping to some really nasty concoctions for migrane headache. The proof is definatly in the pudding.

My name is Kara. I don't pronounce it like a car, but more like a care bear. One of the nicknames I got growing up was "Kara Beara". I hated that name!
I am from Western New York, in beautiful country. I am very happily married. Yes, that can still happen in today's society!! I have two children from a previous marriage, and I have three "bonus" children that are my husband's from a previous marriage.
I am a Christian who believes that God really does work in our lives, but not through a church that tells you that God wants your money. I also believe that there is only one God, and He is known by many names, and is sometimes called the Goddess, Buddha, Allah, etc, etc. I know it's a little unconventional (ok, maybe a lot), but it's what I believe.

Unconventional, maybe. But it's also what I believe, though I found organized Christianity didn't work for me. Maybe we can chat about it in the chat thread sometime.

I sort of feel the same way, so you aren't weird at all. cool

Well that makes three of us who feel that way. From the pagen perspective all Gods are one God and All Goddeses are one Godess the God and the Goddess are one... Where does that leave you? The Christian perspective God is the All in All and Alpha and Omega! All God asks is that we put no other God Before Him so Opening a circle with a prayer for God's blessing works for me! It is amazing the power he lends to healers! Healing is a Gift mensioned in the Bible as well as many pagen healers out there who are likely gifted with this power as well, God (in whatever form you choose to view our divine guide) chooses people to work through!
The healing touch is in most if not all of us!

Hm. Everyone has all these varied beliefs! heart I think it''s great that we''re all here. For my two cents, I''m a devout traditional Christian. I know, it''s odd to find an open-minded traditionalist, but I''m just that way, I guess. Anyway! Pictures! heart Me and mine! (too big, must link!)

My name is Asha; I live in Ohio ((most of the time)) I do not have just one set home. I move alot between a couple different houses; so I mostly just live out of my backpack in a rather bohemian gypsy lifestyle. Though I do have a room at one of them, which is basically used as my Library, greenhouse, and work station. I have been studying Herbalism, Healing, and religions since I was a child; taugh by my grandfather. If anyone ever needs anything I am more than happy to help, just let me know. I hope I can be a valuable asset.
~Asha

Hi My name is Rachel. Im 21 from Virginia. I have been interested in herbal healing for a while now. At least 3 years. I have plenty of books but don't really take the time to read them. Hopefuly I can change that and maybe take a few classes. I mostly stay home right now and take care of my grandmother, she had a ruptured brain anyeurism a couple years back and had to quit college to take care of her. I was working at an animal refuge a few months ago but got really sick from there dirty drinking water and quit soon after that. So Im here at home for the time being. Oh and my favorite DDR song is Jam & Marmelade razz

I live just north of the Seattle city limits. I have a husband and we live in a "mother in law" apartment in my parents' basement. I'd like to move into the city soon, but this place does have the perk that I get to do whatever I want in the garden, which includes native plants in the back, veggies and fruit in the front, and lots of herbs near the door!
I'm more into growing the plants than using them, but I like finding out everything I can about the uses of plants. I particularly like to grow perennial useful plants. Veggies are great, but they take a lot of work! I'm also into hiking, drumming, and nutrition.

Hi there everyone!!! My name is Sandra, but I usually am called Sandy(or Angel). I am a 25 year old prior-enlisted Navy sailor turned stay-at-home Navy spouse. My hubby(who turned 33 on 9/21) and I are currently living in Virginia Beach, Virginia. Henbane, I noticed you are in Virginia as well. May I ask what part?
Anyhoo, I have always loved being in nature, and went from being Catholic to Wiccan nearly 3 years ago and I don't regret it at all. I am a Healer. I use Reiki and my *LARGE* collection of crystals and gemstones to heal others, mainly from a distance.
I joined this guild cause I have been interested in herbs since I became Wiccan. Even more so since I started my at-home business, which partners with Melaleuca, The Wellness Company, which uses all natural herbs and botanical products that are safe for the home. I'll shut up about that now, or I will go on and on about it. lol
Enough of my babbling now. I look forward to meeting all of you and having tons of fun here!!
~Angel

Hello, Angel, it's good to have you here! You'll have a very different viewpoint that most of us, since so far it's mostly been herbalists. Looking forward to hearing!
Henbane: Wow, sounds rought. *hugs* (My favorite is Butterfly...)
wood_sorrel: Hey, you're near me! I live about half an hour south of belllingham!

Hey, ya'll, I'm Koiyuki, a recent and very interested student of the natural art of healing. I am of the firm belief that we all have ther right to do what we please, and that at the core, we're all ultimately the same. Unfortunately, living in the ghetto has the distinct disadvantage of the only natural herb for miles being sold in bricks. I hope to help other people using the methods i learn here and to teach others how to use the healing touch. And I hope to help heal others in other ways, as well. Lots of people I meet tell me i have a talent for that. xd And like some of the people here, I too share an affinity for DDR, though my favorite song is Destiny Lovers. Tough in the 9 step stage, lemme tell ya, but i digress. I'm also glad to see such open minded here in this guild. Makes me think that this is a good place for people to come. even if they don't like what someone else believes... confused
