Hi All,two things really,the 1st is I've had to fill in a medical form as I'm going for an appointment at a hospital I've never been to before,and they ask for your religion...I put pagan,as anything else would be untrue,but I'm not sure it's actually a religion as such...can I put this as a valid answer do you think?They may think I'm a little strange,oh I don't know..has anyone else had this quandry?The second is,I work in a big store,and every day an old man in his 80's calls in and chats to all the staff.One day,he came acroiss to me&said "who was that woman standing next to you?she had black on"well,ther was no one ther,I was behind a counter.I'm freaked out &a little scared,any ideas?Also,(yes,that's 3 things!)any ideas for fertility spells or rituals?used green candles,sea shells,waiting to see if the've worked!
Happy blessings to all

Sure, why not? Or even try "atheist" just to keep the preacher away. The question of religion on that form has more to do with the "last rites" of whatever religious belief, or in the case of the JWs- no blood transfusions, for example.

It's probably just an equal ops thing, nowt to worry about!

Put down Hittite - that should keep them guessing!

When I had my baby last year we put Pagan on loads of forms as our religion. Everyone was really respectful and courteous. A couple of the midwives were really interested, and one had a Pagan daughter. I say go ahead if you're comfortable with it. smile.gif

Can't help with the second thing I'm afraid. I wouldn't be scared though.

I think there was a fertility thread in the alternative therapies bit. I used a little pouch with moonstone, ruby and carnelian in, a Rune script and a picture of Freyja. We also slept with an arrow under the bed to be sure we had a boy laugh.gif

aha. I had this not so long back, i wrote down Pagan. The nurse read it and gave me weird looks.

About that women the man saw, maybe talk to the man about what he saw and if he sees these kind of things alot. Maybe you could learn from him. smile.gif
