I don't claim any label, though I hang out here on iVillage with the pagans.

I've claimed several faiths in my lifetime so far. I have been a Seeker for most of my life, but always feeling close to Nature. It took until my 40s to bear fruit to find my Path as an Electic Wiccan. I started out a Cradle Catholic, tried other forms of Christianity, and Zen and being Agnostic for some years. Now, I have been "settled" with my Goddess and God for many years now. I recently joined a UU church for a sense of spiritual community, but I am finding that the true benefit was connecting with a Pagan Circle there, which has now morphed into a specifically Wiccan Circle, and will be having a dedication and initiation ceremony in October. While I still enjoy the UU services and people, I am finding my spiritual needs are more fulfilled with the Wiccan Circle. We will be not only gathering to celebrate the Sabbats but Full Moons as well, and get together to learn more about divination tools as well. My spiritual journey waxes and wanes, just like the moon. :P Right now I'm in "Full Moon" phase with Wiccan Circle, after having waited many years to find such a group. I believe my journey is "all good" and has given me wisdom and taught me important lessons throughout my life, and that a spiritual JOURNEY is just that, a personal journey of evolution as Spirit.

I am a Gnostic Christian. I believe in God & a Goddess. I do not believe in the devil or hell. I also believe in reincarnation.

You are correct! I am impressed that you knew that. Sadly most people have NO idea what I am talking about. It gets old explaining it and then trying to justify why I don't believe in hell or the devil. I am glad somebody else understands.

Other: Roman Catholic. I'm a Cradle Catholic, too; I've never doubted that the Church is the place for me.

I would say that I am spritual before I would say anything.

Since Inky hasn't been by for a couple weeks, I'll venture a guess on her behalf...
