Hello and Merry Meet,
I am so confused on what path to take.... I cant even research to find the right path for me, Since I am under age and living with my parents who know nothing about what I am. Can someone help me find my path?.... I think I may be Wiccan but im not sure... Im just a very confused Empath.
I would be very thankful for any help you can give.
Merry Part and Blessed Be,

Re: Help Needed in Finding my Path.
Just take your time and try not to stress out over it 
You'll find the right path sooner or later; just research when you can and try not to limit your possibilities.. In the end, it's a personal choice and your going to have to be the one to make it

Re: Help Needed in Finding my Path.
Maybe if you list the things you believe in we can be of more help.
Do you believe in a deity? If so what kind of deity? Do you believe in Magick? Do you practice magick? Do you believe in reincarnation? etc etc

Re: Help Needed in Finding my Path.
Being an empath alone is a plateful. I agree with the above post- take yur time, don't stress yorself about it. You will find your path as the time becomes right. Meanwhile read and study what interests you.

Re: Help Needed in Finding my Path.
Yes I do mean gods and goddesses. The belief in a certain pantheon can be specific to a certain faith. The pagan faith includes every faith that does not adhere to the rules of the abrahamic religions, no singular deity, no central book of wisdom etc. Depending on the details of your personal beliefs they can be for any one of the pagan faiths, if however you do not believe in a pantheon at all yet still practice magick you would just be a witch and not a pagan.
Hope this helps
Bless

Re: Help Needed in Finding my Path.
If you follow the wiccan traditions of celebrating the esbats and sabbats and recognise the goddess and god than you are in fact a wiccan. Within Wicca there are several other traditions depending on the pantheon or tradition set you follow.
Some of these traditions include but are not limited to: Dianic, Garnarian, Alexandrian, Celtic wicca, Eclectic, Seax etc. etc.

Re: Help Needed in Finding my Path.
Sometimes it is best to remain with what is most familiar and work your way from there as you learn.
Good resource for any research might be at sacred-texts.com. It may take a while. I left the religion my parents chose for me back in 1993 but even then it was a slow moving away that began around 1987. I tried a few paths, researching them, went agnostic for a while, then returned, then agnostic, you get my drift. There was a lot of "reverse engineering" in my quest which I had been doing albeit unconsciously.
Starting in summer 2010, I think I finally found myself a niche that I feel best works for me but it is taking practice as with anything.
Hope it does not take you that long, of course. I did not have internet during a major part of my transition, first off, and even when internet finally did come into my life, I did not have any of the quality resources that are out there (such as Sacred-Texts).

It's like walking down an empty street, listening to your own footsteps. But all you have to do is knock on any door and say, "If you'll let me in, I'll live the way you want me to live. And I'll think the way you want me to think." And all the blinds will go up, and all the doors will open, and you'll never feel lonely. Ever again.

I know exactly what you feel like. I personnaly went through the same thing. I came to be a Wiccan. This was the only path of the many I researched that felt like home. All I can say is to keep an open mind, and do not let a single suggestion of faith go by without truly thinking about it. It won't be easy to find yourself, but to do do means a great amount of happiness and self-fulfillment. I hope you may find your path peacefully and swiftly!

Re: Help Needed in Finding my Path.
That's how I was. I have switched religions many times, I never had any faith in them, always doubted them. So you have to look within yourself to truly realize what's right for you. What you believe in. Something you just KNOW is real, that's there and cares and loves and protects you. Who knows? You might take something from every religion and put it into your own. I realized my true faith. I hope you realize what you believe in.
Blessings.
