Paganism refers to modern revival of ancient (mostly polytheist) faith from Europe, Middle East and North Africa, and the movements surrounding it. The purpose of this community is to provide a space for discussion and sharing of experiences, art and advice among pagans. Thanks to AnonMoos on Wikimedia Commons for the images I used for the icon! https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Pagan_religions_symbols.svg

Where would you place yourself on the reconstructionist - revivalist spectrum? (kbin.social)

By "recon" I mean keeping as close to the original practice and by reviv I mean adapting the practice to the modern age

Anyone remember A Witches' Thicket? (literature.cafe)

Pretty much the title. The Thicket was a community at Delphi many years ago. Just wondering where they are now. :)

Y'all go to "church" or is y'all's practice personal and private? (kbin.social)

Do y'all have religious leaders or do you pretty much lead yourself?

Are you the only member of your practice/faith or do you have congregants/community?

I have been to events I consider "church" in my faith but not everyone around me participating did.

I have a person I consider a faith leader but they may not consider themselves as such.

I am simultaneously always and never engaged in my faith.

As you might've noticed, I've changed up the sidebar. Our community now has an icon, a description (so people know this is the right community) and expanded upon rules. Hopefully this draws in more people as well!

How do you personally negotiate with Deities? (kbin.social)

I think Artemis is interested in me, and I will probably need some negotiating, so I want to hear how you negotiate personally. By negotiation I mean setting up some limits with Them.

Hello Pagans! Who do you follow? (kbin.social)

Just having fun getting things rolling on here.

I'm a follower of the horned god and the earth mother, but I also worship Hecate.

What about anyone else? What's your paganism look like?
