Why did you pick your handle?
tanath is as close to a name i was given in a dream as i can come when awake. i've become quite fond of it.
What path do you follow?
i generally refer to myself as eclectic pagan. i feel like it gives me more freedom to be who i am and to practice what calls to me.
How long have you been following it?
i actively chose a pagan path almost a year ago. i'm still a reletive newby, but i read a lot and think i've already learned a lot.
Does it effect you everyday life?
not that much. not a lot has changed. the biggest adjustment has been learning how to deal with my religion while attending a christian college. i had a roommate drop out after seeing my alter.
How do you integrate your beliefs in your daily life
? i use stones to help me deal with stresses and unexpected situations when i feel i need the extra help.
Has the Pagan Mystics effected your life?
yes. i've found a lot of information and just general belonging here.
What is your current occupation?
i'm a college studio art major. i'll be a junior in a little over a month. that's really weird to think about.....
What would be your dream job?
i'm an artist, i would love nothing better than to be able to be free to create my art anyway and anytime i wanted.
What did you want to be?
i want to be a lot of things; smart, wise, trustworthy, a wife, a mother, a good friend, an artist. i like to think that i've already accomplished some of those things, i'm hoping to accomplish the others before i die.
Dreams for the future?
graduating, getting married, getting the usa to "LET" me have a legal marriage, have kids, create art that people love and remember (without having people know me at a showing), own a house, have pets, survive college, have all my friends survive college.....the list could go on forever if i let it.
What was your favorite childhood game?
i loved candyland. i'm not sure why. i can't remember playing it that often, i just loved the bright colors and pictures.
If you could have any animal (mythical or otherwise) as a pet, what would it be?
i want a menagerie. i want cats, horses, birds, lizards, snakes, chinchillas, a dog or two, and a host of other animals.
What are 5 words that your partner/friends would use to describe you? 5 words you would use?
friends? weird, loud, smart, reliable, laidback
me? i'm just me. there are only five words that can sum that up. me, nothing more, nothing less.
What do you do to relax?
read, talk online, hang out with friends, create
What is your favorite date/ night out?
hehe, i don't get out that often. i like to just go somewhere fun with people that like to have fun. that could be a club, a theme park, or just to a restuarant.
How do you express yourself?
i'm an artist, i express myself visually. i can be good with words when i need to be, but it's not my native element.
What is it, specifically that you have the hardest time with as far as your faith is concerned?
i have a hard time making time to meditate. it doesn't come easily to me. i'm an artist who can't do visualizations. i am perfectly aware that that doesn't make any sense.
What is your take on the "Gods?" (polytheist, monotheist, ect.)
Why? i believe in a god and goddess. i can't and won't say if all gods are one god or if all gods are different. that's not something i'm sure i'll ever know. i mainly just believe in a cosmic power that looks after us whne we need and helps us when we are unable to help ourselves.
Please add anything of interest about yourself.
i'm not good at being put on the spot. it's hard for me to pick out something about myself to talk about. i like too many things to narrow them down. i pick up new hobbies all the time. i just like to learn how to do something so that i know how if i ever have a need to.
Thanks,
Kitty
