Greek Pagans honor Zeus with a ceremony?

Willowlady @Willowlady (10658) • United States 27 Jan 07

My local paper carried this article which stated that a clutch of modern pagans honored Zeus at a 1800 year old temple in the heart of Athens. The first known ceremony of its kind held there since the ancient Greek religion was...

oceangirl I'm very happy to see that the Greek laws are being relaxed enough to allow those who wish to honor the Old Ways to do so openly! There are people who practice not just the Greek Old Ways, but also the Celtic ways, the Norse ways, and even the Egyptian...

Do you have powers like Alison in Medium?

thescribbler @thescribbler (386) • United States 20 Jan 07

When I was younger, some things happened to me that still puzzle me. My mother was sick so I stayed home from school to help out. I was in the kitchen doing something when I heard her call out to me. I distinctly heard her call my...

oceangirl The vision of knowing your professor had died of a heart attack is really freaky, indeed!! I am inclined to believe that there are some people like you who are capable of doing things like this, or who simply have experiences like this that they can't...

oceangirl Might it not also be because this category is titled "depression," and people who are depressed frequently think of suicide? Suicidal thoughts are a clear symptom, one of the most drastic, of depression. Obsessive suicidal thoughts would, I would imagine,...

oceangirl Maybe it's because, as Bob Newhart observed, it really is absurd to pick leaves from a plant, roll them up in a piece of paper, stick it in your mouth, and light it ON FIRE. But of course, that's JMHO. :)

What form of paganism do you practise?

Raevyn1972 @Raevyn1972 (275) • Canada 9 Jan 07

Just as there are a myriad of Christian denominations, so too are there of pagan practises. Which one do you adhere to? Wicca? Druidry? Asatru? Kemeticism (Egyptian)? A mixture? Personally I have been studying paganism as an...

oceangirl This may sound silly or childish, but I've found that "rocking" myself to sleep really helps a lot. I imagine the repetition of a particular word might do the same kind of thing, but I seem to benefit from the physical rocking motion. Might be one of the...

oceangirl I'd very much like to visit pre-Christian era sites like Newgrange. It's a sort of megalithic structure that's about 5,000 years old and was likely built before the Celts arrived. No one is certain what it was built for, but it is aligned with the rising...

oceangirl I like google, if that's the kind of thing you're asking. I like the way they index posts. My other half prefers yahoo. I don't like it as much.

How many myLot posts would be left?

if we eliminated every discussion about smoking, making money, addictions, and stupid posts? I'm guessing around 37. I suppose this one would have to go too!

Do you read to your children?

Ashida @Ashida (1370) • United States 6 Jan 07

And if so, what is their favorite story? We read to our kids every night at bed time. My son likes Curious George and my daughter likes Green Eggs and Ham.

oceangirl I don't have any children, so no one to read to. :/ My mother read to us all the time. I remember her reading us _The Wizard of Oz_ more than once. When I was really little, I remember reading things like Green Eggs & Ham and Curious George. We also read...

oceangirl No. I'm Pagan. We don't believe in the devil. That's a Christian entity. I don't believe in the devil any more than I believe in a Christian god. There is no "all-evil" being, any more than there is any *one and only* God. The idea of only one God...
