Hallo & Merry Meet
« on: November 05, 2011, 10:16:19 pm »
I'm new to this forum, but have studying paganism for approximately 4 years (possibly a bit less). I am an animal lover, a hunter, and an artist. I don't go out of my way to seek information for anything beyond my own interests. Sometimes I completely stop my witchcraft, religious, and pagan research during down-times on my spiritual self. Right now I am going through a good spiritual peek, and am hoping to keep it around to help me out with some of my life problems as it has before.

If you have an information to feed me, please do. I find myself to be relatively open-minded to many things.

Here is a copy/pasted explanation of my path and beliefs.

Quote
My own personal beliefs are unnameable, and define myself a "non-specific pagan." I have my own need for spiritual release. I believe in many different things, including things of the paranormal type. I'm currently stuck with a couple of different ideas that I'm not sure what I believe more of, but I'm feeling myself growing toward the possibility that all religious deities stand the possibility of existing with their own kingdoms and ideals. I have my own unnamed leaders who have chosen to not name themselves, I think maybe because of the way I've chosen to believe in how the gods and goddess run things.

These are simply the beliefs I've puzzled together in my own time of studying, seeing evidence in a little bit of everything. I was born Baptist, but no longer feel Baptist is in any way right for me, and I no longer believe in any Baptist ideals, though certain morals I'll hold for sanity sake. (An example would be my thoughts I once had on possibly waiting until after marriage for sex since I hold sexual intercourse as something meaningful, but I changed my mind 3-4 months before I had turned 18. Not to say I no longer think it is meaningful, but because I now think it can still be meaningful without a bond like marriage.)

I have no belief in a single "evil deity" but rather the idea of "evil" is within the darker side of everyone. It's the mind of the beholder that creates the "evil" in the world, and that is my form of the opposing force. I also believe that there is a possibility in an "underworld" or "hell" or sorts in which souls that fell to dark are held and watched to make sure they don't knock the balance of the world out of place.

I have many other personal ideals, morals, and beliefs, some of which I have adopted from my bit of studying from Wicca. The reason I have not chosen to slide myself to Wicca beliefs is because of certain aspects of my nature, as well as differentiating ideas that do not fit into Wicca.

Feel free to ask questions, make points, or discuss with me. I've got a lot in my head, some of which I will openly refuse to bring up.

Thank you. My siggy and icon are all of my little girl, Seven. She's my pain in bum. I might possibly share some of our best photos so far of them all though if anyone holds much interest. :D
