Hello
okay so I did a post today talking about deities of the land and how I couldn't relate to deities from other cultures, but then I thought why does it matter what culture it is from? So I decided to be open to all deities from all cultures... I had this idea that I would find it easier to connect with deities of my country, but what I really found out was is that I was interested in the country in my land, not that I couldn't relate to other deity cultures.
My question is how do/did you find a pantheon. I find it intersting on others stories on how they found there deities and pantheon? I have found that within my practice the deities that come to me are usually from egptian background or greek!!! And when you found your pantheon how did you go about researching that culture? Did you go to the library? the reason I'm asking is, I find it interesting on others stories like said above xD
The deities that I am intersted in in the past and present are, Hecate, Athena, Bast, Thoth, Aphrodite, and one not from Greek or egptian, The Green Man... and also ganesh LOL omfg...
So basically my question is how did you choose a pantheon? and when you choose your pantheon how did you choose your deity? (maybe by a ritual etc)
