thanks whitewolf that is really interesting.it is seems like lots of the beliefs are simiar to hinduism and some types of buddhism such as pantheism and reveration of nature and the indigineous beliefs in the east which is what i am more familiar wtih so that is interesting. i was getting confused with moots and covens so thanks for that ww. and the stuff the lady in the new age shop was telling me on neo pagaism involving spells.

so what is neo paganism really?

Neo paganism is new paganism.
Nea means new.
Basically it is the concept that paganism of today is made from the shreds of historical evidence we have from ancient paganism, maybe bits of other religious beliefs and perhaps some new thought perspectives.

Since Paganism is dead, neo paganism is basically it's modern child trying to follow it as best as it can with the knowledge it has.

Or at least that is my interpretation of it. Personal of course, different people will percieve it differentrly and that can lead to murky waters when finding a clear definition of something so complex as this.
