Animism

Animism recognizes that consciousness, agency, or spirit inhabits not just humans but animals, plants, geological features, and objects—meaning your surroundings are not inert background but active participants in a shared world. Rather than primitive superstition, it's a coherent ontology gaining attention from contemporary ecologists and philosophers grappling with how to live responsibly in an entangled world.
