Welcome! :)
I generally find that if a subject comes up that I know will cause issues for whatever reason I just avoid the topic. It's not worth the arguments most of the time.
Greetings! :D
I've had an encounter with a shadow person but no sightings of anything cryptid related thus far.
The problem with this situation is that no one knows the truth of exactly what happened. People are flocking to Depp's banner because he is a loved celebrity but we'll never know the truth of it all.
Greetings and welcome. :)

Thank you for sharing @eleanor. You have to be who you are and believe in what you do. I'm grateful that my friends who know of my spiritual path are understanding of it even they don't understand...
I've only ever discussed my approach, induction, whatever you want to call it, to paganism with a friend who was a bit shamanistic. She was a great help in helping me get my feet on the path about...
Had I been more lucky in love and relationships in my twenties and early thirties I would have loved to have a couple kids. But the older I got and the more I saw of my friends when they had kids, I...
I was here for a while but as I say, real life rather got in the way.
Thank you. Good to see you are still around. :)
Thank you for the welcome. I remember a few names as well when I looked through last night. It does seem a bit quieter but that's okay. :)
Hi all.
I used to be a member of this forum about ten years ago. I had only just started on my spiritual path and I found these forums a welcoming place to chat. Real life happened including the...
1. How do you describe the human condition?
Free will to decide our own fates, for better or for worse.
2. Do you see yourself in need of salvation and how is that achieved?
I do not need...
Meditation is not something that comes easy to me. I find that random thoughts and images try to fill the empty space and it's a huge distraction. What I found helpful was to visualise something, to...
When I first starting looking into paganism back in the mid-ninties, I was seriously put off my the inherant feminism that I found. I knew a couple feminists at the time who really did see men as...
Mine is a simple table in the bedroom. I don't have a cloth anymore (an unfortunate candle accident coated it in wax and I never managed to get it all out) so everything just sits on the bare table...
I don't pray every day. Sometimes the outside world gets in the way, but I do try to take five minutes to just talk to my gods. I don't know that they get anything out of it, but I get issues off my...
I don't believe in Hell or anything of that nature. The idea that the universe or the gods would punish someone for eternity just makes little sense to me.
I'd be dissapointed because (as the OP states we can all justify our own personal faith) but I'm sure I could turn around and say that my path has helped me get through life.
The question I have is am I the soul animating this body and communicating through it, or am I the body and my soul is just alone for the ride?
I'm proud to be Pagan, just as I assume members of other faiths should be proud to be theirs. Pride in oneself isn't something that we should be ashamed of.
My personal opinion is that good and evil are purely human concepts. We just view things in a certain light based upon our society and personal values.
To me gods are gods. probably as our ancestors thought of them. Higher beings who have some influence on the mortal world though their aspects (love, storms, war...etc). I have a hard time seeing...
I'd like a nice mausoleum with gargoyles on the corners and a Lovecraftian quote on the door.
Since I'm probably not going to get what I want, I'll go with a burial somewhere not in a churchyard.
