A few years ago, Cara from the paganperspectives YouTube channel posted a video describing the basics, for her, of Technopaganism.
In the video, she discusses the following topics:
- “Nine Words Serve The TechMage Best: Keep what works, Fix what’s broke, Dump the rest.”
- Techno shamanism
- Urban shamanism
- Keeping an electronic book of shadows
- Using a laser pointer instead of a wand
- Using a lighter for fire
- Using different colors of lighters depending on the moon phase
- Using magic to aid technology
- Using crystals to help keep your computer running well
- Using magic to aid your online character in a game
- Having a belief that technology has a unique spirit
- Having a belief that a computer or a car has a unique spirit
- Car protection spells
- Chants to the goddess of travel while driving
- An urban take on our connection and relation to nature
- Using technology to aid magic
- iTunes when doing yoga
- Entering trance-like states at raves and dances
- Blessing a sewing machine used to make pouches
- Physical ritual to celebrate technology
- Not being about or but and, so not using this or that but combining technology with your pagan practice
- Technology being a part of nature because it comes from us so all things are natural
- Interconnectedness and blessedness in cyberspace
- Using a stove instead of a campfire does not automatically make one a technopagan
- Use what works
