The New Age Movement

The so-called Western societies, deeply materialized and capitalized, have created a spiritual void in people that is difficult to fill. Not finding answers to their desires in canonical religions, many people turned to other practices and rites. On the other hand, easy access to global information has made it possible to rediscover alternative paths throughout the world, from the East to the Americas, African cults and, more surprisingly, the revitalization of ancestral European cults and practices.
