Fuck off

>>7217

What's the Thor equivalent in Frenchie Paganism?

>>7220

dunno tbh. i'm barely getting started myself and havent really had much time for research

>>7223

that's a nice website tbh. thanks for showing it to me

on your wicca note, some elements of celtic religion were incorporated into it, but it's basically a multicultural pie of a religion, incoroprating real indian, american indian, voodoo, and all kinds of religion. it's basically just multicultural pseudo-occultism tbh

>>7224

I'm assuming that your of Gaulic ancestry? Where do you hail from?

>>7225

i'm irish (gaelic, don't confuse it with gaulish/gallic, that's mainland pre-roman french)

interesting, will monitor this thread

>redpilled

please, stop with this /pol/ maymay. it's nauseating after 3 years

So what are the main differences between celtic paganism and, I guess, northen paganism? My ancestors are predominantly irish, so that's why I want to know. Are there any modern groups that practice celtic paganism?

>>7220

One of the problems of Celtic paganism is that it has a lot of subgroups based on geography, and few sources of studies and most of these sources are foreign being primarly ROman or Greek, so its hard to make an unique selection of Gods.

The most common practice to fill the gaps of the different denominations is to use the Irish or Breton sources, depending on what type of celt your ancestors. The linguistical branches are, Goidellic (Eire - Ireland, Man and Alba - Scotland) or Brettonic (Breizh - Brittany, Kernow - Cornwall and Cymru - Wales).

For example, im Galizian, and my ancestors were celts; but our sources fro the local deities (names, powers, functions…) are really contaminated with Roman gods, and our holy places with Christian hermits and chapels. Since we dont know our liguistical branch; maybe we were even from one that has dissapeared, we look for clues in the legends and the History. From this point of view, our biggest and most known connection is Ireland.The book of Lebor Gabála Éren (The Book of the Taking of Ireland) narrates how the world was created and how the celts originated, how they settled on the lands of Northwest Iberian Peninsula (Galiza), and then conquered Ireland in different waves of colonization. This myth has a huge impact today in the conformation of both our nations, Ireland and Galiza, and creates a deep connection, and therefore with the rest of the Celtic nations.

Also, we have to take in account actual documented history, and in this side we have a well known colonization of Breton people of the northwesternmost part of our coast, a region called "Costa da Morte", which translate to "Death Coast" (Metal as fuck, I know). This puts in a really evident way the deep maritimal connections that region had.

TL; DR Its a tricky question that needs to be responded specifically, although most of the times the main gods only differ in the name.

Also, some links. Wikipedia has a farily good amount of inof on the celts.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Celtic_mythology If you speak spanish, i would reccomend to read this article in Spanish, its better.

the best preserved celtic pagan religion is the irish one. they were extensively written down, and even when they weren't, they mostly survived almost unchanged to this day.

>>7579

what are the chances on this slow board?

let me contribute a bit quick

http://www.sacred-texts.com/neu/celt/#ireland

i highlighted ireland specifically because, like i said, irish religion is the best preserved out of the celts. ireland is to celts as iceland is to germanics tbh

Also, is anyone else here interested in proto-celtic (aka common celtic)?

For those who don't know, proto-celtic is the reconstructed ancestor language of all the known Celtic languages.

vid embed is a spoken example of proto-celtic

>>7581

Proto Celtic won't teach you anything useful. No one has ever written anything in it, and no one speaks it anymore. Only useful for linguistic autism.

>>7220

Cernunnos. All the PIE dieties have equivalents all over europe.

rip this thread

>celto-germanic.blogspot.com

This is a good blog imo tbh

REMINDER TO FELLOW GAELS (and assorted brythons) TO LEARN YOUR OWN FUCKING LANGUAGE ASAP

WE ARE NOT ENGLISH, SO STOP SPEAKING IT

>>7824

didnt see anything about celts tbh, title looks like bullshit

>>7837

>implying disagreeing with nazism is opposing views

im anti-immigration, anti-feminism and pro-european in general. however, i believe that primitive society is the best for mankind, not natsoc society. i'm also a gaelic pagan. is that a problem with you?

How legit is ADF? Their wikipedia page mentions pretty clearly that they were formed as a reaction to wiccatru faggotry, but I think the broad PIE scope might be negative. "open to the public" doesn't sound good either.

These guys: https://www.adf.org

>>7853

generally what calls itself druidism=wicca tier shit. I could be wrong about these guys though.

>>7864

they seen okay from what I've read but agreed, druidism is usually referring to 17th century Celtic revival shit thats mostly based on hoax nonsense, or modern day Wicca shit which is even worse.

the druids are long dead and their knowledge lost, sad to say but the druids won't return most likely in full form

>>7867

we should just have priests/preachers, not druids tbh. calling yourself a druid is deluded.

anyway, it's mostly the english who do the druidism thing, even though their culture has been mostly germanic since around the year 800. They have no place in it anyway.

Galician here, you should reconstruct using Irish sources. They have the best written and extensive sagas.

In the case of Galiza is great and its really useful, because our foundational myths are related. Basically, the celts from Galiza saw Eire on the distance and decided to colonize it. Itts a beautiful myth.
