A few weeks back I posted that I was seeking a Reclaiming teacher. It would seem this is not the path for me. There have been many obstacles thrown in my path. I don’t know if these obstacles are telling me Reclaiming isn’t for me for if it means I have to work harder to attain those goals, but it feels much more like the latter.

The woman who agreed to teach me lives three hours away and wanted an amount of money I could not afford. She also wanted me to travel to Ontario on occasion. While travel to a foreign country sounds awesome, I cannot afford to do so, nor can I justify the amount of gas it’ll take to drive there. Flying is just too cost prohibitive.

I wallowed in self pity for a while, then thought I’d try another track by joining Covenant of the Goddess but their joining rules are very complex. At this time there is no way I can join because I cannot meet their requirements. Again I wallowed in self-pity and got pretty frustrated and annoyed. From the ashes of my desires, an offer from DME who said she would teach me long distance. I agreed.

I had hoped for live person training, but apparently that is not my fate. Regardless of the method of training, I am very pleased to be finally on the path of Witch and herbalist.
