So what kind of "New Age Mormon Pagan" are YOU?

What categories can you add to help us map this section of the Mormon world?

*Of course, "New Age," "Mormon," and "Pagan" are all contested categories that refer to complex identities. You may not consider yourself New Age, Mormon or Pagan. These are just categories I have chosen to refer to the phenomena I'm in the process of illuminating. Rest assured that the final project will explicate these and other terms that emerge in the course of this project.

Many people with Mormon backgrounds do healing work that is not related to institutional uses of LDS priesthood. Some practice Reiki, SRT, RET, and other healing modalities. If you are one of these people, what kind of healing work do you do, and what led you to it? In your mind, how do these practices relate to the LDS priesthood? What have been your experiences with blending or replacing Mormonism with these practices?

Allison Dubois is just one famous psychic who has been influential in Mormon circles. Because she is located and frequently offers workshops in the Phoenix area (a secondary Mormon market), many Mormons have used her books and workshops to better understandand develop their natural psychic abilities.

Use this space to map the Mormon experience as it relates to the role of psychic phenomena.

Mormon Pagans and other Earth-based Ritualists

Mormonism accepts the existence of other Gods besides the God of this earth. It also teaches that all things were created spiritually before they were created physically.

You may consider yourself to be a "pagan" (or not), or you may just enjoy communing with Mother Nature and feel connected to the spirits of the Earth. You may celebrate earth-centered rituals. You may have developed a relationship with "The Goddess" and/or Heavenly Mother.
