Hi. Odd question; feeling insecure.
I'm returning to traditional British Paganism / Heathenism after being raised in the tradition but having not participated in it for a long time. I am a transgender man (female to male); lots of the focus is on womanhood and I'm finding a lot of practising feminists and women (not a bad thing at all!). The tradition I was raised in was also very women-centric, having very very few men in our lives and certainly no central ones.
I'm currently reading the Hedge Witch and Anne Moura's Grimoire for the Green Witch; two books I grew up with, and finding lots of references to the Divine Androgyne, etc. I know one of my childhood coven elders has now themselves gone on to medically transition from female to male and whereas they were someone I would normally turn to, I'm no longer in contact with any of my family or their associates.
My issues are difficult to define but I guess I feel almost 'guilty' returning to the space as I feel like I've abandoned something (my sex) which is held in such high regard through all the literature I'm in contact with. I don't know how to feel empowered reading and practising, I think. I'm struggling to find my place and where I fit into it. I feel insecure and unsure of myself for the first time in a long time.
I apologise if this is a topic that's been broached here before, and any input would be hugely appreciated.

Dionysus is beloved by many trans folk. He was raised as a girl to hide him from Hera, frequently crossdresses, and is frequently associated with both effeminacy and hypermasculinity. Genderbending was incorporated into his actual worship, too. A lot of neopagans interpret Dionysus as trans or nonbinary.
β3597931[Quote]
>>3597929I am nonbinary and am a devotee of Athena. In hymns that survive about her, authors use masculine and feminine adjectives to describe her, a fact that Thomas Taylor (18th century translator of the Orphic Hymns) rendered in poetry by calling her "male and female." The mythic context of her birth suggest that she was prophetically meant to be Zeus's son before Zeus swallowed her mother, Metis, to prevent her birth.
There are a lot of Greek and Roman gods that bent their gender. Others have mentioned Dionysus and Hermes, but also Apollo and Artemis did not conform to ancient gender norms.

>>3597931Ishtar is probably the biggest deity who is protective of transgender/nonbinary followers. Ancient cult practices involved gender inversion as a part of worship, and many ancient transgender people joined her cult for life. As her worship spread westward, she merged with other goddesses and brought her followers with her - including Aphrodite, Artemis, Agdistis, Atargatis, and especially Cybele/Magna Mater. The modern day hijras' practices have been linked back to ancient mesopotamian Ishtar cults as well (though their religion now is quite different and should be respected as such).
Additionally, Anubis is a rather genderfluid deity! Many deities of liminal spaces - psychopomps especially - have elements of gender fluidity. Sekhmet/Hathor, in my experience, also has this quality, though I am unsure if she was ever perceived as such in ancient times - though she has been depicted with an erect phallus as Sekhmet-Min.

>The Israeli government released a document in the 90s talking about how they fear a European Pagan revival and that they are going to try to suppress it. Look up "neo paganism in the public square and its relevance to judaism." Jews quite literally fear a return of European Paganism and are doing everything they can to try to stop it.
They are trying to slide this btw. Everyone look up "Neo Paganism in the Public Square and its Relevance to Judaism"

>Pagans were cruel indeed. To deflate the myth of pagan tolerance, one may quote a text from the ninth century Assyrian rule Assurnasirpal:>600 of their warriors I put to the sword; 3,000 captives I burned with fire; I did not leave a single one of them alive to serve as a hostage. …Hulai, their governor, I flayed, and his skin I spread upon the wall of the city; the city I destroyed, I devastated, I burned with fire…. From some I cut off their hands and fingers; and from others I cut off their noses, their ears. ..of many I put out their eyes. I made one pillar of the living and another of heads, and I bound their heads to tree-trunks round the city. 49 β3598053[Quote]
>>3598026>jewish paganismwasn't judaism originally a pagan religion?
I mean, in the context of pagan religions, "pagan" literally just means a follower of polytheistic religions and judaism was originally polytheistic as it borrowed influence from ancient semitic and mesopotamia religions

>>3598053kike paganism is stuff like the Babylonian cults they began to worship after the exile of the israelites or the mixage of the cults of moloch/baal from the caananites the israelites hadn't killed which created yahwism (which was a perversion of the original god yahweh (monotheistic biblical god), and intermixed with the caananite god el (polytheistic canaanite god) as the same god. which they weren't)
>judaism was originally polytheistic as it borrowed influence from ancient semitic and mesopotamia religionsjudaism takes heavily from Babylonian religions because that was the now mutted Babylonian-israelites moving back to israel after they were sent away to babel for generations- judaism is still very polytheistic.
the kikes article was complaining more about islamic paganism returning
