Creating your own religion

[moonbow]

When I was young and foolish, I fancied the idea of creating my own religion, but then I matured and realized that I didn't want to have anything to do with other humans. With people, there always come various problems and unpredictable situations. However, the idea of 'my' religion didn't leave me. So, I ended up inventing certain rituals and began carrying them out in combination with prayers to the Moon, the Sun, the Earth, certain planets, stars, and constellations, without naming any specific spirits or gods. And things started to happen. In that sense, there is a certain pattern. So I can say that 'my' magical religion is an invention for my personal and completely individual use and devotion, without involving other people.

Completely agree with that. You have to go your own path and create your own magic. One only needs to understand the fundamentals and then one can go on by himself based on that.
I also wouldn't want to get involved with other humans through a religion, it feels silly already just thinking about it. There is nothing to worship, nothing to gather around. The only way I could make my own religion is if I wanted to abuse gullible cult-members. Which I don't.

You can create a sect, but you cannot create a religion. If we talk about a personal belief system, then everyone has it to one degree or another.
