I ditto what Wolfie and Lil have already said! :)
Newy - rather than focusing on 'wanting to follow a pagan path and meet pagan friends' I really do recommend, as Wolfie suggested, sitting down on your own and working out what YOU believe/feel. (Have you visited the Articles section at GG? you may find the following article useful : 'A Pagan Path')... at the end of the day, only YOU have the answers that are right for you :)

You mentioned star signs and the likes - don't be confused in to believing that astrology etc is what being a Pagan is about. IMO these are 'decorations' if you like - anyone can have an interest in astrology without being Pagan, just as not all Pagans have an interest in astrology... for me, it is the respect, reverence and understanding of Nature which lies at the heart of Paganism / Earth Tradition paths... from this starting point you will meet such a wide variety of beliefs all under the Paganism umbrella. That's part of the beauty of it all lol - we're all individuals and we can only walk OUR paths :)
AND... don't be in a hurry - you have your whole life to walk your path, and it will present many changes/decisions/experiences along the way... we are all constantly learning, and certainly nobody knows everything!! Explore, discover, experience... enjoy :)

I dont think I have expessed myself properly.
maybe I cant.
I do understand what everyone is talking about.
My beliefs ARE in earths traditions and always have been. my main thing is to dicover myself and why I suddenly feel betrayed by someone who was so close to me.
Think I better leave the Garden for a while..

Love, Lite and Rainbows to all of you..
NEWY.
