LOOKING FOR A FEW GOOD NEO-PAGANS!

About Me

Disclaimer:This page is intended to network peoples of the Neo-Pagan communities, faiths, and/or traditions in a peaceful and non-hostile way. Please remember that some people may not be all that they lead you to believe on the internet. If you choose to meet any of the people on my friends list please do so in a public place a few times and get to know them before you show them where you live. I do not, personally, know every person on my friends list. There is only a small hand full that I have met face to face. Please, people, be safe and respect each other.Also, remember that when a person is looking for a Grove, Coven, Tradition, Lodge, or whatever you want to call it, be smart and observe your environment and remember this tool: The Advanced Bonewits’ Cult Danger Evaluation at http://www.neopagan.net/ABCDEF.html and that not all people out there are genuine in what they say.Last, but not least, if you wish to put me on your friends list and I send you a message introducing myself first, RESPOND to it, please. I like to chit chat a bit before I add people to my friends list. If you find my page due to a signature on my email, if you are just searching the Myspace pages, or through a friend’s friend list; and you want to add me to your friends list, talk to me first please. I just made a change to my settings. I got sick of spam so you have to know my last name or email address to send me a friend invite. So, now, you have to take to me before you can become a friend on my list.Thank you and be safe,Star

-HI, my name is Star. I have been living in the Elk River area for 2 years now. I am Neo-Pagan. For those out there, I am not Wiccan. Do not confuse me with those who are Wiccan. Not that I think that there is something wrong with Wiccans. A few of my friends are studying to be Wiccans, of one tradition or another. I know that I have Wiccan selected on religion; however, it seems to be the only Neo-Pagan choice this site provides. I have always been an Eclectic Neo-Pagan. I began my journey in Neo-Paganism from about 1994 to present date, well; I fully understood that I was part of the Neo-Pagan Movement in about 1996. I, originally, started with Wicca. Reading whatever I could find and learning that some authors just write books with very bad research. Later I grew discontent with Wicca. I just didn’t feel right, for myself, about the structure. I have always been Solitary. I am now a member of Ar nDraiocht Fein: ADF, and I am working on the Dedicant Program. I am focusing on the Hellenic Culture. It is said that this program will take about a year. However, if you don’t have a game plan it will take more than that. This program requires constant study and review if you really want it to take a year only. It isn’t as hard as it may sound. There is a wonderful document on the ADF webpage that a member wrote to help with this problem. It is only available to members though. He broke it down into week lessons. One lesson per each week of the year until it is completed. (For those who are curious go to: http://www.adf.org )----------------------------------------------------------- I was introduced to this wonderful organization (ADF) by an old friend that helped me out many times in the past, when I was 19. She was a Sr. Druid for her Grove. As time went on, I lost contact with her and most of the people that had made a wonderful impact within my life. Not too long ago I had remembered the ADF website and wrote into them to find people in my area. I explained my situation and they sent my request to my old friend. She was very helpful, and helped me make contact with some great people close to my area. (Of course all of these people's real names and what have you will remain unspoken, due to respect of their private lives.) Hopefully, one day, I will be able to put Minnesota back on the ADF listing of Groves... Well, it would have to be a Proto-Grove first. Just to let you know that my friend Mariah is work her tail off to get ADF members together to pull a proto-grove together at: http://groups.google.com/group/adf-minnesota---------------- -------------------------------------------I am also a member of Twin Cities Pagan Pride. I am helping to organize volunteers for this program. I think that it is a wonderful thing to help out with. It is one way to become involved in helping the Neo-Pagan community out as a whole and meet new people with similar ideas and feelings. I, during the warmer times of the year, also organize a park clean up here in Elk River at Lions Park. This is also a nice way to help the whole community in general, do something good for the earth, and, also, meet new people with similar ideas and feelings. Fell free to contact me and let me know if you want to help out. Also, realize that I do send out periodic bulletins asking for people to help out with either of these things and sometimes for other gatherings and events.May the Gods, Spirits, and Ancestors bless your life,StarREMEMBER! IF YOU NEED SUPPLIES, NO MATTER WHERE YOU LIVE, MOST ANYTHING RELATED TO RELIGION CAN BE FOUND AT http://magusbooks.com/main/ (IF IT IS NOT ON THEIR PAGE; CONTACT THEM AND ROGER CAN SEE ABOUT ORDERING IT FOR YOU. IF YOU LIVE IN THE TWIN CITIES; THEIR STORE IS IN DINKY TOWN.. CHECK 'EM OUT)*****-Selena Fox on VA Pentacle Campaign-I found this wonderful video on YouTube.com. It was posted by Gypsy65, whoever that is, a member of ADF.Faces of Druidry.. width="425" height="350" ..- Take the quiz:
Which Egyptian God or Goddess do you represent? (Pictures!)

Thoth, God of Wisdom and Learning
Thoth was said to be self-created, along with his wife Ma'at. He was said to be represented by a baboon, these grave facial features displaying extreme thoughtfulness. He supposedly carried a pen and scrolls with him, with which he records all things.
You are a very intelligent individual. You know what is important in life, and that you have to be smart to live in this world. Perhaps you get a bit too caught up in books, to the point where you are oblivious to other things, but for the most part, you are wise and thoughtful. People can depend on you for advice and you can always give those crucial words of wisdom when they are most needed.

Pagan/Occultist
Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the law. Spending your entire life searching various forms of philosophy and religion, you choose to observe everything and believe little.

My Interests

Paganism, Neopaganism, Mysticism, Magic, Magick, Druidry, Wicca, Wiccan, Hellenic, Religion, Spirituality, Spirits, Demons, Deamon, ADF, Ar nDraiocht Fein, Witchcraft, Philosophy, Gods, Goddesses.This is a Simple Shrine Ritual by Ian Corrigan for ADF. If you want to look at the scripts pf the ritual go to: http://www.adf.org/rituals/videos/simple-shrine/.. width="425" height="350" ..These two videos were posted by an account listed as Aleister the URL for that persons page is: http://www.myspace.com/thelema_magick666 The page itself is mainly a history of Aleister Crowley. However, the videos that this person posted, from what I can tell, are of the Order of Bards, Ovates, and Druids (O.B.O.D). So, enjoy them and the Beautiful music that is played with them. -- Druids 1

Add to My Profile | More Videos --- Druids 2

Add to My Profile | More Videos --- In my Journey on the Internet I found a very interesting and humorous interview with Philip Carr-Gomm (Chosen Chief, OBOD). It was posted by a woman that uses the name Unikorn at the site of: http://www.myspace.com/pagangroveAlban Elfed - Stonehenge Aotearoa

Add to My Profile | More VideosWell, i think it is pretty obvious what my interests are at this point.

I'd like to meet:

I would like to meet others of like mind. Close as possible is okay, as well. Although, I do request that I do not have people that are stuck in the fantasy world of AD&D or LARPers. This does not mean that I have a problem with gamers. The Pot can't call the kettle black(well when people didn't have cook ware that came in rainbow assorted colors anyway.) White Wolf and AD&D, mainly Vampire the masqurade... However, I have met one too many people in the past that could not leave the fantasy world of gaming... Above that if you are just looking to add a person because you want to have a lot of numbers on your page, WHAT IS THE POINT OF THAT! So, when I email you it helps to respond to me, not just try to add me to your friends list.The Advanced Bonewits’ Cult Danger Evaluation http://www.neopagan.net/ABCDEF.html

Music:

I listen to a wide range of music. I mostly listen to metal and goth-rock. I do however enjoy music of many different styles. -- This wonderful video was found linked to a man named Jeff. The link to his page is: http://www.myspace.com/unseelieturtle Samhain

Movies:

Well, I like these movies for a starter: Big Fish Ghosts of Mars, 13 Ghosts (the original and the one with F. Murray Abraham), Star Wars: episodes I - VI, The Rock, The Lost Boys, and The Brothers Grimm. Now this is just a small list but I do have many more movies. Again, I do like a wide selection of movies.

Television:

I don't really watch that that much.. -----------------------------------------------Demystifying Paganism

Books:

Here we go these are a few books in my collection: Buckland's Big Blue, The Dark Archetype by Dumars &Nyx, Pagans and the Law by Dana Eilers,The Spiral Dance by StarHawk, The Magic Power of Witchcraft by Gavin & Yvonne Frost, Animal-Speak by Ted Andrews, Demons: The Devil, Possession, and Exorcism by Anthony Finlay, and (last but not least) The Principia Discordia (FNORD) by Steve Jackson Games(which reminds us to laugh, even at ourselves). These are not all of my library but a few.
