Hey umm, I was just wondering, can anyone 'preach' to me what being a Pagan is all about? I'm just trying to understand it, I'm not trying to 'convert' but just understand it. If any Pagans want to add their piece, plz do, and thankz in advance.

Alright. Hmmm. If I ask any personal questions, just plea the 5th. Lol. Do you guys believe in outright magic, or just helping a 'miracle' along? I know I used to do some incantations (sorry if that's not the right word) with my one friend. We used lots of incense, and candles and herbs. I actually enjoyed that stuff. That's kind of why I'm looking a little into the religion... Hehehe.

Sorry about the misspelling. If you want... you can preach to me anything you want about the religion... Lol. I have actually had a liking to your religion. Can you actually write your own spells and stuff? Or do they have to be written by a special person, or what? Jeez, I'm getting super curious... Hehe. I never get this curious about stuff.

StarWhisper - I think Kerick thinks that 'Pagan' is the religion itself and not the generic term like Christian. The Druids are a group I'd like to learn a lot more about. I only have a very very vague understanding of what the Pagan sects are about. I think you'll have to start along the lines that Pagan is a term used to refer to a group of religions that predate Judeo-Christian scriptures and go from there.

Ummm, Lol, this may sound really stupid, but do you wear that cross that has the thing at the top? I honestly can't think of how to explain it, but I think you'll understand what I'm talking about... I hope anyways...

Magick is bending energy to ones will to achieve something. Let's say for example if I want a money, and decide to cast a spell. I don't expect money to appear before me, obviously but what I'am doing is shifting the energy to me, so it comes into my life.

Hmmm. Does Necromancy fit under that religion thing? I'm not saying anything, but I'm curious. How about like, the elemental magicks? Omg, I'm glad I'm not a cat, the curiousity would have killed me by now. Lol.

*Sigh* Anyways, back to our religion topic... Lol. If they don't want to hear about it, they can go elsewhere, cuz unlike rose, you were ASKED about this. Plz continue.

Yeah, the north connected with the elements. If I did it right way back when, I'm supposed to be east, and wind. Lol. Dunno how accurate I was, but hey, I liked doing it.

Lol. People really don't understand much, but they sure do like to jump up and pick at you even when they haven't a clue. I almost pity how stupid some of the trolls can be.

Lmao. Boy I feel like a dummie. Lol. I think I did it right when I figured out what sign and stuff I was like 3 or 4 years ago... I'm gemini, so doesn't that match up with East and Wind? Lol. Sorry. I sound pretty stupid to you huh? Lmao.
