Caer Abred

I cut my philosophical and spiritual teeth here. The first place I got a sense of community outside of Christianity. Enjoyed many an event with Pagans and exchanged great ideas. Because it is largely undefined and differs from individual to individual it is the perfect place to experiment with any idea you want and not have to be commited to it, until finally you find yourself settling somewhere.

There is freedom and inspiration in it.Its diverse and no-one proselytises.You can fit yourself into it. I have a confession I kind of fit into the freestyle shamanic practioner section.

Thats me too. I find modern paganism is a very accepting, tolerant exciting bubbling cauldron of ideas and richly inspiring for me in encouraging me in the creative arts and self expression. I think commitment is good - to people and tribe, to life and the land, to tolerance and peace - though I also like the fact that most pagans hold their beliefs 'lightly' and experimentally.
