First steps ? plus a Hello

Hi everyone I’m new so I wanted to introduce myself, as well as ask some first steps.

My name is Nicole I’m 38 and a mother to 4 biological children and also one bonus kiddo who came with my husband. I’ve lived here for about 7 years now. Have never really made friends and have no community.

I see myself as spiritually diverse but I’ve always felt something lacking and I feel very drawn in general to Santeria. I don’t specifically know what it is drawing me but something tells me this is important.

But as a white girl, who currently resides in Utah I want to make sure that I’m doing things correctly. I don’t know anyone who is a devotee or practices Santaria personally. Watching Baba Victors videos has given me some info but I definitely worry that I’m over stepping my place. I had a reading some years back and was told that the Orisha would be happy to work with me but it would take work.

But I don’t even know if the person who did the reading was actually a Santera. It took ten minutes and I don’t feel like I have much of a direction.

So I guess my question in. Where do I start. Because reading other people’s experiences is wonderful but I don’t feel like I have any sort of compass. I feel lost and adrift with no community here in Utah. I have nobody, certainly not someone who understands.

That was a long one.
