Well, it hasn't been too long ago. Basically, I've always been interested in various religions, I eventually stumbled upon wicca. It helped me grow as a person to learn new approches to different things. I'd say that I became more serious in witchcraft a little over a year ago.
If you noticed, I said I was eclectic--which means that I don't practice one thing in particular. I sort of cut and paste things from different religions to create my own spirtuality as I see it. For instance, I believe in reincarnation, I also believe all things are connected together (you might call it Chi), I also believe in Jesus (not exactly as the son of God, but I believe him to be real, I believe his message is a good one), and on top of that, I believe Magick is very real (the basis of my calling myself a witch). I believe there isn't one single path to the Ultimate, I believe in many, and all paths lead us there--so really you can practice whatever you want--or combine them.
That's some basics.
