Europeans are returning to paganism: Our true religions and ancient traditions. As heathens or pagans we are closely connected to nature and guided by our ancestors' belief systems.

When I was five years old my mother took me to see The Vikings at the theatre. It deeply affected me. At around 17 years -old I began to lean strongly toward Paganism and have been a Pagan my entire life. I will soon be 69 years-old. When my mother was 90 she mentioned her mother's family did not care for her father who was born in Kiev. She said they called him a "Rus." She had no idea what that meant. After she passed I was in a bookstore and bought a huge book on Viking history. I was sitting in my mountain cabin having a Martini and literally spit it across the room when I got to the section on the Kievan Rus. Then I realized my paternal Grandfather also had Viking blood, having come from Riga. What "silent knowledge" in my blood awakened a five year-old boy cannot be ignored.

If you have a rainbow of different paints, and you throw them all in a bucket and mix them together, they all disappear into one boring, mucky brown. True diversity, beautiful diversity, is born of division and isolation. I want the world to once again be filled with divided, isolated, nationalistic countries.

I live in Kyoto, Japan, and I see millions of tourists from everywhere visiting are fascinated to visit Shinto shrines which are pagan. Japan was one of the few countries which could avoid Christianity by closing the country off from all foreigners for a couple of hundred years. Paganism is making a general return to the earth. For example, Japanese anime contain worlds (sometimes disguised) of pagan, animistic and magical beliefs based on nature goddesses and gods. The return of paganism in Europe fits in with this global trend. I do research on paganism in popular culture and I found that the movie Star Wars in 1977 signals the return of the Divine Feminine. I think nature spirituality is important. I found that Shakespeare was a pagan too. And in his work he predicts the return of paganism and witchcraft. (Witchcraft means paganism but no clerics, no large scale organized religion. Large-scale organized religion with clerics, no matter pagan or not, could be a problem because clerics make connections to politicians). I am much more comfortable without groups and clerics.

[@PhantomKodiak]

I grew up in a Christian family yet I remember never really feeling as though I fit in or felt a connection with the faith. I'd spent most of my time outdoors playing, exploring, or just listening to the different sounds around me and it always felt like something was calling me. Of course as I reached my teens I started analyzing Christianity in a more literal sense and noticing just the peculiarity of the stories within the bible.. people turned into pillars, a great flood, the sea splitting.. I drifted away from it even more and basically cut all ties with it once I brought my questions to the various Christians I attended school with as well as my family.. and was met with both ridicule and blind faith. So I turned to Atheism which I felt some comfort in for a time, being free of religious ties and focusing on the world we live in set my mind and heart at ease, until about five or so years ago anyway when I began feeling lost again. To my surprise my dad had got a gift in the form of one of the family tree trackers I can't remember which one at the moment and while we knew his family had members from Wales, Scotland, Ireland, and Germany.. the tests concluded that my dad's family tree leads back to the Scandinavian countries and spread from there. Hearing this I began doing my own research into the cultures of Norway, Sweden, and Denmark. Happy to say it lead me here to this KZbin channel and to Norse Paganism.. it's almost like my appreciation of nature and those that have come and gone before us has increased drastically. I guess this is just some long convoluted way for me to say that I'm finally happy and feel like I belong somewhere.. that I'm part of something worth being a part of and that your words reinforce this feeling.

I respect your view, but in my case, as a Portuguese, I just can't really find positivity in my ancestor's (the Callaeci mainly but it also includes other Iberic people, Berbers, Romans and Suebis) pagan practices, wich included human sacrifice and divination in animal entrails. I like the aesthetics of it (the stone circles like the Cromeleque dos Almendres, the dolmens like the Anta do Mezio, and the amazing Celtic Carnivals in Lazarim, Podence, or Mogadouro) but I just don't believe what they believed in, and I don't like their practices. Christianity is clearly declining, but I think the two big players taking its place are atheism and Islam, not paganism, and the paganism we see is very superficial, it only consists of tattoos, jewels, or merchandises. That's not paganism, that's just fantasy influenced by video games and Hollywood.

Completely agree. I'm sure when the vikings raided Paris they sacrificed a couple of hundred french soldiers to Odin... These gods were worshipped in a time when the world was very different but this is what they demanded; sacrifice in blood. I've seen no neopagans even sacrifice a living animal to "the gods" (although some may do). I agree that the reverence of nature is paramount, no matter what your faith is (as Bjorn is alluding to) but most modern pagans are in it for the fashion and the image, essentially role playing.

Never truer words said. Neopaganism is so romanticised, if any of them could travel back in time and saw how pagans lived and worshipped they’d probably have a coronary.

I wish more Europeans would appreciate our ancestors like other cultures but with all of the propaganda against our people it seems hopeless. Although my sons are aware of our past.

You are sooo spot on! There is nothing quite as beautiful as making the connection to nature and feeling it's ancient spirit run through you. When you truly reach out to it, it will reach back! It is awesome!!!
