Isn't this just picking stuff from other religions and shove them all in to a new one? ( Just asking ).

Part of it was my imagination. I kinda consider it to be an offshoot or denomination of Wicca.

I think it's pretty interesting. The post is very informative, as well.

I'd like to see what this turns into, honestly. :)

Yes. It seems like a lot of stuff are from wicca. Such has Yule and Litha.

congrats, you have now founded a religion. i am quite interested in how it will turn out. now it's time for you to think about: will it be structured and how so, how will you spread the word, and you need to get your religion recognized as one so you aren't labeled a cult, ect.

This, more sounds eclectical than a formalized religion, just sounds like Modern Witchcraft to me, but, you're welcome to do what you want.

I think this very cute.
To be recognized as a religion in America, you need to file and have three members not of blood involved. It is actually easy to become recognized as a church (church is defined as a coven, temple etc. by laws) depending on how you do it, although running services can be difficult if your practicing with a group of non followers. I've done open rituals that were like a regular church service and private one just for members. The open ones are geared toward those that don't understand the culture, the private ones are for those of us that actually practice.
If you are actually looking to form a religion that you hope to promote, you'll have to expand on your info. You'll have to make rules and codes of conduct. I have some basic info on what is needed somewhere I could look for if you would like.
Best of luck with this.

Oh, don't worry about your religion being made up. Many Practitioners believe all religion was made by man.

Why is that? I am just asking. You do not have to answer.

Well, for a long time I was really confused about which branch of Neopaganism to join. So I sat down with my book of shadows one day and wrote down everything I believed and this is how it turned out! Legal status isn't super important to me, nor is having a bunch of followers, but I posted it here because I was hoping someone would say, "Hey, that's what I believe too!" Because that moment would be pretty cool.
