By the way, you mention that shaman is a Siberian term twice in a row under "Is therioshamanism a type of Native American shamanism or Native American spirituality?" Unless of course you meant to be Very Emphatic, and that's cool ;D
I like the idea of "neoshamanism". It puts a clear word on something that's been a slippery subject for me. I've had a new appreciation lately with the whole idea of saying "eh screw it, my beliefs aren't based on any particular tradition, they're just what work for me".
Hi, I hope you don't mind that I added you, after our conversations at booksofafeather ^^ I just thought that reading your journal would be informative to me. And maybe you would like to see what I am doing on magic terms so I gave you access. But, you don't have to add me back.

Been a while since I read the FAQs, but it sounds pretty good to me. I've been meaning to dig back through your blog for a while.
