Scripture has lots to say about what you can read in this article. I guess remembering the First Commandment would be important here, and if you care to, look up what should be done with witches, those with familiar spirits, those who talk to the dead… It’s not that theses spirits don’t exist, they do, but God told us how to deal with them. Please also read our article on witchcraft.

Samantha Weaver loves to dance beneath the moon near the marsh in her backyard.“Sometimes I even wear clothes,” quipped the 61-year-old Camellia Shores resident. “I’m sure my neighbors think I’m crazy.”
Weaver’s moonlit “sky-clad” prances aren’t just whimsical amusement. They offer her a spiritual connection with nature that she said is part of her heritage.
A local speaker and soon-to-be published author, Weaver claims to descend from a long line of swamp or “bog” witches who hail from Iona, Scotland, an island steeped in mystical lore. For centuries, the first-born daughters in her family were named Iona.
“My grandmother told me that we were of the fairy blood – descendents of the fairy race,” said Weaver, who believes that her short stature – just over 5 feet tall – and A-positive blood type attest to her ancestry.
Weaver also was born with a “veil over her face” or a caul – an amniotic membrane – which she interprets as a sign that she is a spirit-discerner.
In medieval times the appearance of a caul was considered good luck and an omen that the child was destined for greatness.
