Ecological paganism
This talk explores ecological Paganism as a lived relationship with land, place, and spirit, rooted in the old understanding that sacredness grows from long attention to hills, wells, trees, and seasons. It looks at the difference between loving nature in theory and learning to listen to it in practice, moving beyond romantic ideas towards reciprocity, respect, and responsibility.
Drawing on both modern ecology and traditional animist wisdom, the talk shows how magic works through living networks of soil, water, plants, and people, and how ethical practice matters in a damaged world. It invites listeners to see Paganism not as escape or decoration, but as stewardship, belonging, and the work of becoming good ancestors, walking gently with the land for those who come after us.
