Hi all. I've always been drawn to paganism but have never actually followed through to it. The question I want to ask is where do I actually start? How do I begin my journey? Many thanks in advance.

You ask where to start your journey with paganism, my question is, well what aspect of paganism do you find interest in, and in what form of paganism?

Are you interested in Wicca? Native cultures? Something else?

Perhaps start with a subject within paganism you find of interest, are you interested in nature based things? Animism?

I apologize if this isn't too helpful, it is what I can think of at the moment.

In any event follow your instinct.

Blessings

Thanks for the reply. I'm more interested in the Wicca aspect of Paganism. I feel my happiest when I'm out in nature and belive that is why I'm being guided by my curiosities to Paganism.

I find the term pagan to be very broad and there are quite a few paths under that category. Wicca is one, then there's witch craft, Druidry, Norse and Heathen just to name some for examples. Even within those groups you can have a variety even to the point of mixing them to suit your path. Alternatively, you just do what resonates with you and forget labels.

When my path changed, I looked into witch craft, Wicca and Druidry. I resonated with Druidry. I didn't put a label on my path until it settled and even then, I include runes (Norse) so not 100% Celtic but that's okay because it's a part of my path. I did have help from my Guides to sort out what I wanted to keep, discard and put on the back burner.

Start with Wicca then :smile: Get inspiration from the natural world. Learn from other Wiccans online or in real life. There is a lot to work with!
