The Four Core Beliefs of Paganism

At the core of Paganism, there are four beliefs that Pagans share.

1) The Divine has made Itself manifest through many Deities in different

places and at different times. No one Deity can express the totality of the

Divine. This is called polytheism -- the Gods are many. (Note: Strictly

speaking, this is more like monotheism than polytheism).

2) The Divine is present in Nature and in each one of us. This is called

pantheism -- the Divine is everywhere.

3) The Divine is represented as both female and male. The two major aspects

of the Divine are the Goddess and God, although the Divine is beyond

limitations of gender.

4) The Pagan Ethic (also called the Wiccan Rede) is followed: If it harm

none, do what you will. This means a Pagan cannot cause harm to anyone or

anything, including themselves.

This is all I could find. I hope it helped!
