Carl de Malmanche (mist)
I am a witch. A person of living magic and
a part of the greater universe, who is exploring
all aspects of that universe. Active in
many areas of magic, craft and paganism for over
30 years, with severe allergies to pretense and
bs.

I and my family have been in N.Z. for three
years, from the U.K. I lived with my family in
Bournemouth on the South Coast of England, very
near the New Forest, which is not new at all, it
is ancient. It is a place steeped in magic and
witchcraft and home to several covens. I was
introduced to Wicca by my husband, 'I'm an
apprentice white witch' is quite a chat up
line!! We have been married 14 yrs and have
studied Wicca and Hedge witch craft all this
time. Prior to meeting my husband I used plants
grown by me for remedies and healing and had a
belief in 'spirit' and ghosts, faeries etc. but
with no knowledge of witchcraft other than faery
stories did not have a name for my beliefs or
even realise that there were other people of
similar beliefs to me. We have visited many
ancient sites in Britain, Stonehenge, Avebury
and others less well known and used to go to the
New Forest to celebrate the major sabbats. I
would like to share my knowledge of living
everyday as a Hedge witch and explain how it is
a way of life that is available to anyone who
wishes it.

I was called to the path about 14 years ago, but
it was 2 years later that I truly felt I could
call myself Pagan - this is a fascinating story
- not. I'm mainly a solitary, but have
done group work, and I love a feeling of
community which is why through Cauldrons Debbie
and I have been working on open sabbats, monthly
coffee meets and the PaganFests. I
currently live in Sydney, and have just started
a new position with a law firm here.
Debbie thinks I've got a decent enough voice -
which is why I get to do the chanting workshop
:) Let's just say that I like music and
seeing as I can't play a socially acceptable
instrument (because years of recorder consorts
does not count) I like to be pretentious at
times and say that my voice is my instrument
lol. I do like how through chanting and
toning you can raise a heck of a lot of energy
in ritual.

I have been a practising witch and
psychic for over 10 years. I have an opinion on
most things pagan and I write for Cauldron's
newsletter as well having articles published in
various new age magazines and websites. (this
is too short so I - Luana - am going to flesh it
out lol)
Debbie is accomplished at many things and
including teaching a beginning paganism class.
She has worked as a solitary and in a group and
has organised and run public sabbat rituals and
coffee meets for many years - including the
first one where she invited strangers into her
home, which sparked what would later turn into
the most awesome friendship between us :)
This is the third PaganFest Debbie has
co-organised and run. She is a regular at the
Body Mind Spirit festivals and Holistic Expos
where she does readings for the public.
