Sacralidade da natureza
A natureza é vista como espaço sagrado, relacional e ritualmente significativo.
O que é: Muitas correntes neopagãs tratam a natureza como dimensão central da experiência religiosa.
Como a tradição entende: Florestas, rios, montanhas, estações e animais podem ser vistos como dotados de presença espiritual, memória mítica ou dignidade sagrada.
Base textual e contexto: O tema atravessa poesia ritual, calendários festivos e espiritualidades ecológicas modernas.
Debates e variações: Algumas correntes enfatizam ecologia prática; outras trabalham sobretudo com simbolismo ritual e cosmologia.
