RELIGION:
Since the first tribes wandered across Europe and Asia, man has had a spiritual guardian and protector. He was intuned with the balance of good and evil, light and darkness, life and death, that balance that surrounds and flows thru all living things in nature. He was the one they called on when the spirits seemed angry and he was needed to calm the gods and goddess's and the spirits. He was the one to see visions and the one to feel the balance of the eternal mother. For many different peoples throughout many different geographic locations he has exsisted, weather it be in the form of a WICCAN, PAGAN, SHAMAN, DRUID, or HEATHEN.

CLICK ON THE WORD SHAMANISM ABOVE TO BE TAKEN TO A REALM OF MAGICK, SPIRITS, AND THE GREAT UNIVERSAL ONENESS THAT SURROUNDS US, PENTRATES US, AND JOINS US ALL IN THE CIRCLE OF LIFE.
   This is the path I have chosen to follow, or more to the point, the path that has chosen me. Shamanism is not only a foot in this world and a foot in the spirit world, it is a cosmic understanding on how the universe works and functions through us all. If shamanism interests you, then this next page will help you start your journey down the path of balance and understanding.

Paganism can best be described as religion that is based on nature and the natural world which uses a pantheon of God's and Goddess's to represent functions of that said natural world. Many ancient peoples believed in what they could see and touch thru nature.They used deities as a way to bridge this gap between the world they knew and the forces contained within what they observed in nature.
CLICK ON THE TREE OF LIFE TO THE LEFT TO SOAR TO THE MYSTICAL WORLD OF GROVES AND DRUID'S. When I personally think of druids and the druidic way in the world, I tend to visualize an old man in long flowing robes, with a cloak, in the mist of some enchanted forest. The druidic way is a path for many earthlovers. It is a path full of challenge and very real, very powerful magick.Druid's meet not in covens like witches, but in groves. Once again nature plays a key role in the individuals groves and in druidism.
Wicca is a relatively new religion only having been around since the latter part of the last century. It combines heathen and old pagan ways with a mix of eastern philosophy (reincarnation and karma). This page is a good place for novices and anyone desiring to learn more about the wiccan religion. Wicca is a religion that is not only individualistic in nature, but gives many a sense of balance. BRIGHT BLESSINGS AND SAFE JOURNEYS.
Click on the icon to the left to be taken to my page dedicated to heathenism and the various types of heathen religions. This webpage deals with heathens and their influence in the known universe. The majority of this page is designed around the heathen religion of ASATRU(NORSE PANTHEON OF DEITIES). This page is a good place for novices to gain knowledge on this form of paganism. Happy hunting.
