About Wayland:
Who I am;
The tradition which I follow is called Alexandrian. The traditions name is derived from the name of the man who began the tradition - Alex Sanders.
I have been practising for about 21 years now and i created most of this site together to share with others what I have collected over the years. You will find all sorts of things here, articles, poetry, history and traditions along with some links to other sites which may be of interest to you as either a practising Wiccan or simply a seeker.
So a little bit about me I suppose would be in order. I was based in Perth, Western Australia and lived there for most of my life. I am now based in a small country town outside of Melbourne in Victoria and I am the High Priest of a small coven there.
My interest in the Occult began at a very early age when I got access to my mothers adult library card (I was a voracious reader and still am). I soon discovered the religious and cultural sections of the library and found lots of interesting things on witchcraft and associated things.
I didn't really do much apart from read for a long time, then in about 1982 I answered an ad in the newspaper regarding an outer court that was being run for a Wiccan group. I initially trained with a fella by the name of Simon Goodman and eventually ran a training group with his guidance. After a falling out with him, I joined another Wiccan group and was initiated to the first degree in 1985. I then joined another group and acted as the Man in Black for that group and was initiated second degree in 1988. I left that group in about 1990 after splitting up with my lover (we were both in the coven and one of us had to go) and I went solo for a long time.
Late in 1998 I was finally bullied into teaching a friend of mine and got in contact with my old High Priestess from the last coven and she needed a trained priest as she was just starting a new coven after recovering from the death of her husband and High Priest. So, I became the High Priest of that coven and finally did my third degree initiation in 1999. I am no longer with that coven and am running a small coven of my own at the moment.
I have been involved with a movement to bring the pagan community of Western Australia together , undertook a project to put together a family tree of the lineages of various pagan traditions which were in Perth. I have been treasurer for the WA Pagan Alliance.
I had my third degree initiation redone in 2002 (to bring my lineage closer to it's source Alex Sanders). I am a member of the Alexandrian Wiccan Webring (drop by if you have time to other members sites, the link is on the front page).
My interests include Wicca and the Occult (as you may have gathered), I also create art, stuff animals, and read/devour books.
What do I look like?
well, here are a couple of pictures, there are more on the site if you are that interested.......
And on to Innana:
Who is Innana;
Well, the Wiccan path path started for me about 8 years ago when my daughter brought home a book on Witchcraft.
Although I had been interested in the occult at an earlier age learning astrology from my grandmother.
I then started reading more, mostly Celtic wicca at first. A trip to the local book shop lead me to a local coven which i promptly joined. after about a year the HPS of the coven decided that she didn't want to continue so i was elected to take over. We continued this way for about 3 years.
My HP and partner at that time had always leaned toward the Alexandrian tradition and being relatively new i wanted to learn the different paths and decided that the Alexandrian path was what felt the best for me. He contacted a coven in sydney and we traved up there where i was dedicated.
In 2002 i was initiated to 1st degree which is when i met Wayland as he had come over from WA for a visit.
Soon after that my partner and i separated and i continued with my friend and coven member from the original coven that i had joined.
Wayland and I sparked up a friendship which soon became more. We met again in Sydney where i went to 2nd degree.
I was initiated to third degree in February of 2005, the day after Wayland and I were handfasted.
My other interests are: any type of art and craft
What do I look like?
