I don't know what to think about all the "new age" stuff but I knew Doreen Virtue and even attended her wedding to Steven Farmer who is also a friend. (they divorced) Their wedding was actually quite weird btw. (In Laguna Beach CA at her house which was filled with Angel iconography everywhere.) I've had a lifelong fascination with Angels so read every book of hers and have all her Angel Card decks. She is from an Evangelical Christian family so no surprise that she went back to her roots. She was lovely in person when I was hanging around with her, but who knows what happened to her. Just thought I'd share that. I actually think there are many paths to God and I don't care who started what religion, except that leaders who are poor examples of humanity turn me away from their "religions." 😊

Oh my, memories! I was peripherally and intermittently involved with the New Age movement in my 30s (1980s). I made a couple of trips to Esalen for workshops, but mostly I read stuff. By the end of that phase of my life I was thoroughly convinced that it was all a huge scam. Done with that. More lessons learned.
