I can understand people totally killing any remnants of originating belief systems including Druidism, Wicca, various Native American practices, Indo-European systems, etc...but WHO THE HELL is anyone to determine what **I** can define as MY path??
Esk-oosh-ah-meh???? My path is MINE. If I choose to follow parts of different systems I CAN. What I do is NONE of anyone else's business.
If someone is going to determine that their path incorporates elements of Druidism, Celtism, Native, whatever...that's their business...HOWEVER! PUH-LLEESSEE understand what these systems as a whole are before labelling yourself eclectic whatever in nature and piecing them together into one re-created path!!!
I call myself an Eclectic Pagan because I incorporate elements of Wicca, and Native belief systems into my practices. I studied Wicca for a number of years before determining it wasn't for me...so I know what Wicca is; AND...I was raised with Native (Ojibwa) beliefs...so I CAN incorporate and LABEL myself of these things because I know what they are and what they involve.
The final note here:
One CAN define their own path. No one else has the right to determine it for them!
Welcome to my blog. Enjoy a warm cup of tea and sit for a spell.
