[Taiania]

ever heard of a being that feeds from happiness?

I know the Law of Attraction effects our life, but does anyone know what to do when you have conflicting beliefs,or intents with oneself?

[Batty]

Are you torn? Theres a such thing as an eclectic Pagan/Witch, who believes in more than one faith, but generally follows the law of the Craft. =]

Can I sort of resurrect this thread? Yes? Great!

So, I am a bit of an odd Pagan (odd fellow in general)
I'd call myself a Pantheistic Animist, or a Materialistic Hylozoist Bard (Ovates, Bards, and Druids).

Effectively, I believe everything has "spirit/life," or at its core matter has the same value as life, as matter makes up life. I do not hold the soul/spirit as separate from matter, nor do I think it is the byproduct of the arrangement of matter. Hylozoism means effectively to me "matter is life." I believe that mythologies and folklore celebrate the human interaction (past and present) with nature, and hold an interest in understanding a variety of traditions and beliefs.

Pantheism to me falls under the concept that all matter, and all life, interact to create a story of the Universe, which is the closest thing to a definition of a "god" capable of everything within the Universe.

Anywho, *forms a portal to the library's Mythology/Religion section* I'd like to see if there are still any others around Trisphee. :)

Hello, everyone.

I consider myself Pagan. I am most definitely polytheistic, with ties to the Green Man, Odin, Freya, Loki, and several other beings who haven't yet revealed their preferred names to me yet. I don't have an alter set up anymore, being homeless currently, but when I had space for it, I had everything set up, and would occasionally work spells, usually with candles. I prefer candle magick, as it seems to have better results.

I haven't revealed to my family that I am Pagan, but I kind of get the impression from them that most would not care, and a few might get offended, but since I rarely see some of them, it really doesn't matter what they think.

Hey guys, I am Pagan and belonged to a coven many moons ago but I am now a solitary witch.

My online name is actually my coven name, as in the name I was given by my coven when I became an initiated member. It's nice to see so many other Pagans! ^_^

[trystan830]

hey there Awen! fancy meeting you here. =)

[Lawtan]

*Waves at everyone* I am not an Innkeeper, but enjoy the old inn!

[trystan830]

[Lawtan]

[trystan830]

[Awen Moonshine]

Hey Trys <3

Thank you Lawtan <3

How is everyone? ^_^

[trystan830]

i'm doing pretty good. =)

sunday my UU fellowship had a Samhain ritual we did, and remembered those we've lost - any that doesn't necessarily mean people, it could have included pets as well. =)

[Awen Moonshine]

That's great! I'm not sure what I'm going to do this year as it's only my second one as a solitary witch and last year I couldn't really do much as I was pregnant and moving house... I'm hoping to at least be able to do something small though... ^_^
