On human beliefs and practices
A characteristic of Heathen
religion is the respect given to
ancestors in general. These may be a
person's literal forebears, or may
be people now dead who have inspired
them in some way...
"One of the central concepts in
Heathenry is wyrd, the force that
connects everything in the universe
throughout space and time. Heathens
believe that all of their actions
can have far reaching consequences
through the web of wyrd. They
understand that who they are, where
they are, and what they are doing
today is dependent on actions they
and others have taken in the past,
and that every choice they make in
the present builds upon choices they
have previously made.
With an
understanding of wyrd comes a great
responsibility. If we know that
every action we take (or fail to
take) will have implications for our
own future choices and for the
future choices of others, we have an
ethical obligation to think
carefully about the possible
consequences of everything we do.
Thus one of the principal ethics of
Heathenry is that of taking
responsibility for one's own
actions."
