WHAT DOES PAGANISM MEAN TO ME?

To study transcendence, the monomyth, (=1) the possible plots within the monomyth (<30), the possible archetypes (~12), the virtues ( depends, but < 20), the emotions ( depends but < 30), as a means of ‘acquisition’, using the world’s collection of myths. HOWEVER: also dividing those myths into the good (pagan) and evil (abrahamic).

In other words, to learn through wisdom.

To restore our celebration of existing nature and the commons rather than the fantasies of heaven and hell, or the fantasy of marxist utopia on earth..

To restore our holidays of the seasons of the solar cycle, and the harvest.

To preserve those ‘appropriated’ holidays (easter, christmas) that preserve the few good things in christianity.

To reduce christianity to the five tenets of jesus’s extension of kinship love, and reduce him to a saint (feminine hero) rather than a prophet.

To change the oath (apostle’s creed) to a worthy oath to one another.

That is what paganism means to me.
