myspace for pagans
pagan social network

    Hello everybody...

    Hi everyone!

    The quick and easy reason I came to this site is knowledge.  I discovered CovenSpace on a Real Vampire Yahoo! group and was compelled to come check it out.

    I am, by all means an atheist.  I hope that won't prohibit me from being a member here.  However, I love to learn about ancient history, religion, different cultural paths, symbols, etc.

    I recently attended a pagan yule ceremony (they were worshipping the Oak god, I believe with a heavy emphasis on Egyptian figures) and found it very interesting and peaceful.  My goal is to interact, maybe attend some more of these ceremonies and simply ask questions.  While I hear the term NeoPagan being thrown around a lot, it's plain to see the historical depth of the rituals and ideas that affect and influence modern wicca and other pagan religions.

    That being said, I am not here to start fight or make fun of anyone.  I am not interested in belittling anyone's beliefs or life path.

    I look forward to meeting and interacting with as many of you as possible.

    Hey Jordan!
    Being an atheist doesn't matter! If you don't mind me being a witch, I don't mind you being atheist! Have a great day!

    well to me technology has seperated us all we are no longer small villages of people trying to survive--relying on eachother as nieghbors to help with harvest,slaughter and shelter(etc)--i sit in a warm electrified house, buy food from a grocery store and rarely am called upon to help a nieghbor in any way--the wheel of the year is comprised of hallmark holidays for most of us--we have lost that dependance/vunerability on/to the elements----obviously there are limits to that-but generally speaking-

    the basis for our earth based religion and dieties are one more degree seperated by every IPOD,car,cell phone and cyber chat room...i feel there is power generated from the network/web of energy we all *sit* upon as complex sentient beings...MOST people are unaware(pagan or not) of our connection...i feel once re can refresh ourselves spiritually we can regain that power of community and therefore self-- returning us to a sense of the old ways--- the community etc.

    it's early did i ramble like a freak?? ha!

    rock your thursday

    COOL-- thanks for the response--this human aspect you are looking for will be quite complex and multifaceted i suspect--this thing of ours, paganism, has gained alot of acceptance and with that a bit of the power (for lack of a better word) has been diluted-
    and mostly because we are a society dependant on such isolating gadgets and technology..even industry-
    gone are the community harvests etc..
    but i digress--
    lets chat! and rock your week!!
