What is paganism?
Modern Paganism refers to a collection of new religious movements, but drawing lines between what is and is not paganism is difficult. Often, paganism refers to reconstructed religions from pre-Christian Europe, forms of modern witchcraft, or modern interpretations of ancient religions and mythology. Typically, paganism is not an organized religion, without much dogma or orthodoxy, and many pagans are not part of a pagan community. Wicca, Asatru/Heathenry, Druidism, Rodnovery, Hellenism and many other traditions all fit under the label "modern paganism".

As you can probably assume, I am staunch follower of Wicca, which is typically duotheistic and of course Earth-based. I’ve chosen to work with deities from the Lusitanian and Celtic pantheons as they are relevant to my ancestral homeland of Portugal. My journey began not that long ago and I for one have much to learn.
