In the 1960s, when New Age traditions began to take off, interest in Western esotericism also began to grow. In spiritual terms, this meant more belief in shamanic and pagan traditions as well as some renewed worship of Goddesses in what was part of the wider feminist movement of the time. Interest in Druidic traditions, witchcraft and even occultism also began to rise, all part of the wider counter-culture scene of the latter part of the twentieth century. Some argue this cultural shift has continued with interest in things like vampire movies and even the magic of the Harry Potter novels.
