Our approach to Paganism is a natural outlook in life. We Focus on self-empowerment, not in the means of becoming all mighty, but as in bettering ourselves and natural abilities.

 

We follow a path in which our deities help guide us along our individual paths. The names and gender is to that of the individual members likings. We follow the ways of the old religions, there is no set pantheon nor is it required.

 

We do not pray to the deities to ask them to change our lives. They work along side us to help guide us in our own decisions and aide us in endeavors.

 

We trust the wisdom of the universe. We trust in the abilities to maintain order and balance. Our work is focused on un-snaring the tangles of our own personal debt. We do not meddle. It is not for us to change the path of others-- only they themselves can do so ... and only thus are life lessons learned.

 

We strive to empower ourselves and gain inner enlightenment so that we are not ruled by our inner dark thoughts. We see the world with open eyes so that we may expand our perception of how Spirit works and our place within the world.

 

We do not seek out gifts, we harbor the ones we have and focus on enhancing what we can do. Mastering our self is key is our own spiritual enlightenment.

 

We work to understand the elements for through them we can understand the ways in which energy works within and without.

 

We follow the lunar cycles for our workings. We Celebrate Samhain, Imbolc, Beltane, and Lughnasadh. All other sabbatts are celebrated on a equal but separate level.

 

We embrace, as our highest ideal, the concept of personal empowerment. There is no Book of shadows to be memorized and no note learning. We teach the students the tools they need so that they may come to their own wisdom. We already have all the answers …. We must only remember how to ask the questions.

 

We believe in the importance of understanding the old religions. Therefore, we encourage all areas of learning especially that of natural ways. Immersion into this way of thought opens us to unlimited possibilities.

 

Our ways cannot be learned thou books, but by means of self-study in our circle and interdisciplinary actions. Remember knowledge is power and is endless, it only stops when you stop searching for it.
