I'd consider myself somewhere between spiritual and maybe kind of pagan, idk

Most of my practice revolves around plants and crystals (no I'm not going to sell you some alternative medicine bullshit, science and spirituality are separate and any mixture doesn't end well) ex catholic so I burrow small aspects from that but tend to avoid it mostly. Been looking into deities lately but haven't integrated any into my primary stuff yet.

Also been doing stuff with a tarot deck lately, that's been fun

oh i have been exposed to it. i was baptized, i was in the missionary scouts, and i went through confirmation (which took a year for our group, others just went on a weekend camp and it was done), because it's what you are supposed to do. my family grew up in a time where the church was part of education, most of my acquaintances are spiritual, i live in an area where that's basically the norm, and i... don't understand. i know all of the details better than most, but i don't get it. i have formulated my own interpretations of several supposedly holy texts, read about nature lore and the asatro neopagans and native american spirits and dreamtime and crystal healing and reiki and... i don't see it.
