what pagans and new ager's believe in general

There are many Gods and Goddesses

In the wild space of chaos and the swelling of the multiverses into infinite convolutions there came complexity which turned aware. The Lords of Chaos...those we call Gods and Goddesses...came into being. Some aware of each other, others not. Some overlapping, sharing parts of each other, and others complete unto themselves.


The Goddesses and Gods are not aspects of a single divinity

No single Goddess/God can represent all the spinning creatures and creations of Chaos any more than one human can represent humanity. Neither is the totality of all Goddess/God's a conscious entity any more than the sum of humanity is a conscious entity. We view the modern attempts to perceive 'all as one' as remnants of Catholic doctrine in the upbringing of otherwise well intentioned Pagans or misinterpretations of Pantheism.


Technology is merely magic which has been understood (sometimes) and applied.

Much of our modern technology in medicine, engineering, astronomy, and chemistry is directly taken from the Pagans and Magicians of earlier eras. Scientists are only modern alchemists who would do better to remember that. Pagans who reject technology, reject their own heritage...spell crafters who reject technology are fundamentally self-contradictory.


Good and Evil have no empirical substance.

The poles of morality are fleeting whims in the course of human existence. The consequences of any action are so manifold as to challenge omniscience. Good and evil, or right and wrong, can only exist as relative and arbitrary choices of the moment. Beneath what you are taught by society is the moral truth that must guide you through your existence.


Polarity is the defining tension of our existence.

Polarity serves as the great and true force of creation/destruction. It gives rise to passion as productive love or destructive violence...both of which must be valued. Properly managed it is the source of all magic...the akashic principle. Poorly used or denied it corrupts all effort. The Goddess is not defined without the God...life is defined by death...all things exist by virtue of their opposition. Between these poles are the places of greatest fertility of self and spirit.


Paradox is only a limit of our understanding.

Contradiction is only a state of perception. Within the universe paradox is common...mathematicians have known this for quite some time. All things can be true, including those things that exclude themselves. So....


Reality is our perception.

We are the masters of reality joining our Mother/Sister/Daughter/Father/Brother/Son deities in the wild dance of chaos as the multiverse wheels through it's cycles.
