how do u become a new ager????
what do u have to do to become a member or follower????


well i sorta fell into it, personally. i just started reading and reading about new age stuff, decided what i like and what i want to follow (and this doesnt stop, i find that theres always something new). if what you decided to follow involves spells or meditation or chants or whatever, do them. i suggest you get someone to be your new age "teacher". i have 4 (a drum healer, a reiki master, a woman who works with angels, and a witch). i only had 2 initiations; a reiki one and i'm working on one about moonwork. there is no new age church, since the religion is disorganized. there are new age libraries, stores, etc, and there you meet other fellow new agers. if you want new age sites email me at celticnewager@infotekpr.com.

Vampires are much more complicated than "they suck peoples blood." Also, silver bullets are for werewolves, dude, not vampires. Bullets hurt vamps but don't kill them. Don't talk about things that you don't know about. It's irritating.

too bad my druid grandfather died. he was jst wise, theres no word i can use to describe his wisdom. but yet i dont know if that was a compliment or an insult

All steryotypes, mdear.

An elf person? Tell me (warning, test), what do you know about elves?


well, if i was to live on the gothic steryotype, i definetly dont fit in. i went to an elf "charla" (i think it should be called conference, meeting, im not sure), and i liked it. mariana (the 13 year old who knows more about elves than elves themselves) ordered a book on elves for me, it's suppossed to arrive in three days. but i believe in elves better than in el chupacabra.

Youre not a witch. You're a very new newager, aka fluffy bunny. I don't think even I am qualified to carry the term "witch," though I've been practicing for three and a half years, not after I talked with an arch-druid today. Man, we're ignorant. Very ignorant. He got into telling that quantum physics are the key to everything, that everything adds up and there's no mistake, that the world is looking at everything backwards. "Those who Know control reality," he said. Those who know the secrets. It's so very complicated. My head hurts, but I'm ready to pick up that book he reccomended and start reading!


my grandfather (the one who died recently) was a druid. i never got to talk much to him, because when we did talk, i was really young and barely interested in spirituality. and when i tried to tak to him about it now (before he died) he couldnt remember anything. i think druidry is the most complicated way of life/religion there is. i've been in new age for 4 years (though i wasted my 1st year in it experimenting and doing stuff to see how it went, and reading). when i say witch, i mean you're ability to be born witch. being an indigo, i have the ability, now it's to "train" them (i'm not sure if thats the correct word to say in english) so i dont think wrong or screw anything up.

i was thinking how much he knows about vampires...

Thing is though, no one knows the secrets.

This man most likely has been very intrested in the feilds of science/physics, but is veiwing them through the lens of paganism. It would be intresting to talk with him so we could have a nice little discussion.


i'm about to defend depressedwavemaster, that definetly means i'm at peace with him.

there are many new agers, clairvoyants (barbara ann brennan, for example), druids, etc, who study (and know about) science/physics. now, science really, in my opinion, doesnt really tell much, so its natural to view them religiously, in whatever religion you're in. about you having a discussoin with him, i want to see that; druids are very very wise.

You and me Jookly. I've got a couple of shotguns and some reloaders we can make up silver jacketed wooden sabot rounds with.

A century ago everyone was saying Newtonian physics were the key to everything. Thing is, we (including your druid friend) don't know half the stuff about why or how quantum physics works. To say that they're the key to everything is presumptive and, actually, not very original.

Ya know, we all say we wish these things were real, but i have a feeling that if they really were real, we'd soon discover just how uncool that reality would be.

The only reason it would be cool for vampires to be real is that it would necessitate real vampire hunters. I would make a great vampire hunter.

I've seen ghosts, vampires and faeries. I believe in Gnomes for spiritual reasons, since Earth is my element. Never seen the other stuff, but a girl can dream if she wants to.
