I have finished my year-long project of making a faire-isle altar cloth for all of the classic neopagan holidays. Each one is dedicated to one of the gods that I worship who I feel most strongly that season. More details of each deity and their associated symbols in the alt text. #Knitting #FiberArt #Pagan #polytheism #Witch

Comparative mythology has simultaniosly saved and completely ruined polytheism. Like, it's cool that people can reach cross time and history to see all of the similarities in the human experience. This builds a great foundation for what life and ritual mean, and brings us all closer, even though we're not worshipping the same gods. But also, trying to squish the gods into neat boxes and only focusing on the similarities between them makes one lose all of the unique and diverse traits among them. Sure, us humans might fall into large groups of stereotypes, but we are each so much more than a general classification. If we regard ourselves as completely unique individuals, then the gods deserve the same courtesy. It's tempting to think that there's some super ancient 'one mythos to rule them all,' but let's be real, that's just the monotheism talking. Humans are messy and diverse creatures, and we always have been. #polytheism
