Paganaidd's Blog: Paganaidd's Pantheon

http://paganaiddsblog.blogspot.com/2012/04/paganaidds-pantheon.html

Saturday, April 28, 2012. So, my friend, Heather. Finally gave me a name for what I practice. This weird thing that I have been calling "Eclectic Solitary Paganism" for years, because I had no other name for it. I love it. It describes it precisely. When I first got into Paganism, I was drawn to the Celtic stuff. My family is Welsh.Like immigrated in 1967 Welsh. I spent about three years in my childhood in Wales, but I never got to be Welsh. I was always far too American. By the time I had my children, I...

Monday, May 28, 2012. The second Holiday in the Americana Animist wheel of the year. Memorial Day is the official start of Summer to most Americans. Sure, most of the kids have two or three more weeks of school, but this is the first long weekend of the summer. Parties and barbeques abound. Memorial Day never fails to make me sad. There is only a part of this country fighting a war. They have been fighting a war for years. We see it on the news, but it hardly touches most of us. While we're on the subjec...

Wednesday, March 04, 2015. Traditions of Bioregional animism. Recently I had a dream where I was discussing the subject of initiation with a practioner if traditional witchcraft, a good friend of mine in the waking world. In the dream he told me that traditions had to be passed on between people for them to be traditions. I'm looking forward to it. Posted by little lightening bolt.

Other than human persons? | Bioregional Animism

http://www.bioregionalanimism.com/p/who-are-other-than-human-persons.html

Other than human persons? To suggest that some rocks or trees are different from others. Hallowell's phrase has gained currency because it does not misrepresent the indigenous thought and experience that some rocks, trees, and storms, act as persons: that is, as relational, intentional, conscious, and communicative beings. This worldview and lifeway is now being called animism, which makes shamans both possible and necessary. From: Graham Harvey and Robert J Wallis : Historical Dictionary of Shamanism.

Saturday, July 22, 2006. Was the land telling this man exactly what its been telling me 29 years ago? What is so amazing to me is that what he is talking about is some thing I have been living, teaching others about and seeing occur in others. I am very happy to share this peice of work with you all and hope that for those of you how have read this long ago are rekindled by re-reading it.

Asymp; 4 Comments. In some sense, the desire for material prosperity reflects the liberation of the masses from cruel forms of oppression and abject poverty that have characterized human society for many centuries. But now, people are discovering that material wealth alone does not satisfy the yearning for spiritual meaning and that the single-minded pursuit of wealth is dehumanizing, so our cultural evolution is not yet finished. Is instructive. Is life not a process? My friend Elizabeth introduced me t...

Cranberry | Bioregional Animism

http://www.bioregionalanimism.com/2013/10/im-creature-of-fall-born-in-november.html

Tuesday, October 08, 2013. What I find really amazing however is that the life path that I have chosen, animism, has had such an impact on me that I revere a berry in the same way some would the Dali llama. That it has become instinctual, and guided by spirit. It overwhelms me to think that I can open my heart to cranberry like some would Jesus and get similar results! I thank mama cranberry for reaching out to me, saying hello to my heart. Posted by little lightening bolt. What is New Animism? If we sur...

What is New Animism? | Bioregional Animism

http://www.bioregionalanimism.com/p/what-is-new-animism.html

What is New Animism? As a relational ontology- the recognition that the world is full of persons, only some of whom are human. In Irving Hallowell's terms, there are human persons and other-then-human-persons, including rock persons, tree persons, cloud persons, and perhaps "spirit persons.". Has argued, animism makes shamans both possible and necessary because their roles are about dealing with the problems of the living world.". Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). What is New Animism?
