Truth in Gatekeeping from The Spaces Between with Paisley Wilde

Streamed on:

It's 2024 and we are still fighting Gatekeeping. It shows up in not just our mundane daily lives, but also in our spiritual ones.... right where it shouldn't be. A person's relationship with the Divine is PERSONAL. If you do not follow a specific Tradition that has stated guidelines and traditions (or dogma, yes), then the "rules" are a bit looser. Regarding any tools or accoutrement that might be considered necessary to be a practicing Pagan or Witch, well those are even more in flux. Gatekeeping should be left behind a locked gate in our society today rather than locking others and both their access and desire to learn behind a gate.
And don't forget to GROUND!

My name is Paisley Wilde. I’m a solitary Pagan/Intuitive Witch in north Idaho. The banks of Lake Pend Oreille are my home. I’ve a connection to the mountain around me, the earth under my feet, and the water within this valley. As I explore what it means to be a Pagan in today’s society, I’ve invited you to join me. We will touch on different beliefs and practices, what is Paganism and how it is different from Witchcraft. And at the very foundation of any belief system... what is Spirituality in our society today. While talking about these very serious things, we will also discuss current events and what it means to be a parent today and how to navigate the various social issues that so many of us are encountering.
