The EarthSpirit Community

The EarthSpirit Community is an organization dedicated to the preservation and development of Earth-centered spirituality, culture and community; we particularly focus on the indigenous traditions of pre-Christian Europe, known collectively as paganism, which have survived in varying degrees to the present day. At the core of the pagan traditions is a sense that the Sacred manifests throughout the natural world, that we can experience it directly through communion with Nature, and that the Spirit of the Earth unites all beings in a vast and varied web of interdependent connections. The pagan traditions incorporate attitudes of veneration and respect for the Earth, and shape a way of life that reflects the patterns and wisdom found in Nature, inspiring us to honor diversity, to value cooperative community, and to live in harmonious balance as an integral part of the natural world.
