Not sure what the general consensus is, but me personally, I want an old burial ceremony. You know where they burn your body in a bonfire, or like the Vikings did and be pushed out to see in a burning boat. Of course I want to be already deceased from natural causes, before they do that. :D

Oops my bad I misinterpreted what you were asking... darn Mercury. :(

*psst* if there's such a thing as Wiccanism, i haven't heard of it til now.

I'm not to sure about pagan burial ceremonies. I suppose that it depends on which tradtion you are from, or if your eclectic, what you want it to be like.

Starhawk and the Reclaiming collective wrote a book, The Pagan Book of LIving and Dying. Maybe there's something in that to answer your questions?

Pagan burial ceremonies generally celebrate and recognize the passing of life in the same sort of way Christian ceremonies do.
