Konnichiwa!

Howdy hey! Konnichiwa (good day)! Ohayou-gozaimasu (good morning!) Oyasimi nasai (good night)! You know, what have you. Thanks for stopping by. I'll start you out with some quotes, just because I love them (I'll add more over time):

  • "When the solution is simple, God is answering." - Albert Einstein
  • "Master Sun said:

    Ultimate Excellence
    Lies not in winning
    Every battle
    But in defeating
    The enemy without ever
    Fighting." - The Art of War (Minford Translation)

Not at this time.
What Experience in Paganism/Wicca would you like to share?
I don't have a lot of experience in and of myself. My father is a practicing Wiccan and an active user on Witch School International, so when I ran into a huge road block in my research on Japanese cultures and religions (the roadblock being the general ignorance of most of the English internet and total lack of Shinto literature at both local libraries), I decided to join and see what I could find out from the Pagan community here. I generally identify myself on a philosophical level as a Christian, though I am sure that the fundamentalist community in my area would wholeheartedly disagree with me on a very basic level (namely, because I don't believe that God is quite so single minded as all that, and a generalized belief in the spiritual nature of all things). I also have a basic knowledge about Fey and other perhaps "mythical" creatures, as well as astrology (and a little bit of tarot, but I'm not quite so good with that). I hope that my somewhat off-kilter thought process will help me contribute at least as much as I hope to learn. Have a nice day, thanks for reading.

"Retrospective deja vu? I've never heard it refereed to like that before. It's much more common with me than actual deja vu, but I've never seen anything about it before. And if you are learning to recognize the dreams, you should do…"

Shintoism and Early Japan

I am looking for information or resources on traditional Shinto beliefs and deities, as well as something to help me outline how Buddhism, Hinduism, and Zen changed Shintoism. I am also interested in finding out more about Japanese Witchcraft (Onmyoudou, the practitioners of which were Onmyouji, and I'll add the Japanese spellings later if I can find them somewhere more reliable than wikipedia). It seems like I can only find the bare minimum on any of this. I will be starting Asian Studies…See More
