The New Age movement took the form it has now during the 1960s and 1970s. Characteristic of the New Age is a deep emphasis on spiritual matters, often in a form attributed to alleged Asian mystics (particularly Indian and Tibetan). Many New Age beliefs draw from heavily distorted Eastern religions, particularly Buddhism. Also typical of the New Age movement is a complete lack of Scientific rigor, making it rather postmodern in its beliefs. Consumers Practitioners choose what they want from Astrology (The Age of Aquarius) Asatru, Hinduism, Neopaganism, UFOlogy, Zen, and any other weird concept that appeals to them. These beliefs are then mixed together according to personal likes and dislikes.
