Finnish Paganism - Finnish Neopaganism

Finnish Neopaganism

In the 20th century, with the rise of the Neopagan movement across the world, Finnish Neopaganism arose as a reconstructed form of the old religion. Unlike those neopagan religions that take an eclectic view of the many pagan faiths, such as Wicca and Neo-druidry, Finnish Neopaganism focuses on reconstructionism to imitate the ancient religion as accurately as possible. It is still mainly practiced within Finland, where it accounts only for a relatively small percentage of the population, the majority being members of the state Lutheran Church or professing no religion.
