So many these days want to reshape the gods to fit their own personal beliefs and views. This goes into the non-dogmatic nature of paganism topic. I have mentioned it before. It’s impossible to summarise. I think old paganism was not 100% void of dogma, if dogma is even a correct word to describe it. Paganism was and is very different from Abrahamic dogma, but our ancestors did have shared beliefs that they all agreed on. There were two sides to each God and Goddess of the Pantheon. There was the side shared by all tribe members, like all of the basic attributes and meanings of gods & goddesses. And then there was room for individualism as well. There was room for an individual person or an individual family to add additional attributes to any God or goddess. However, this individual part where you can add extra attributes or meanings to any God or goddess, this part remains personal, and not shared among all tribes members. Some individual families have chosen a main God or goddess to represent that family. Logically we cannot say that old paganism was not dogmatic at all, because if that was the case, then we wouldn’t even have any pantheon of gods or any kind of spiritual beliefs because there would be no shared belief among the tribe members, no shared pantheon of gods. So yes there was some dogma. I don’t even know if it’s the right word to describe it.. LGBTQ members don’t even acknowledge the ancestry part of paganism, and that’s already off to a bad start. They believe that you can follow the gods of other people’s ancestors, and avoid the gods of your own ancestors. How can you even go any further from this rotten foundation? If you remove the ancestry part of it, then you can forget about authentic paganism. That’s number one issue I have with them, and then on top of that they are trying to force their personal attributes that they are placing on specific God and goddesses on all the rest of the people who follow that pantheon of gods. As I have explained your personal view of any specific God or goddess must remain personal, individual
Loki is a god of chaos, he brings some movement when there is to much structure. I think he brings balans by disturbing a force when this force became to strong. For me he is the ultimate shapeshifter. It's silly that the LBQTsomething hijacked him as a god for the bi-seksual community to push their agenda. The force of Loki is much more complex and intelligent then that. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a060o8QThs0&t=60s

Our wyrd
and soul entwined
'round Frig's distaff
may we find -
Our Life-thread
Yet pre-defined.

Every babe
and yet-unborn,
Receive Frig's love
for she has sworn -
A maternal heart
and child's adorn.

Sisters Three
Now have begun,
from the thread
that Frig had spun
Weave a fate
All said and done.

It has been recently discovered that a Bronze Age slab hidden away for decades might just be one of the world's oldest 3D maps.

The carved Saint-Bélec slab found in the Leuhan parish (Brittany, France) was found within an early Bronze Age barrow in 1900. A recent re-examination of the Saint-Bélec slab suggests that it is likely a map, given certain elements that were repeated and joined by lines.

It shows what looks to be an 18-mile-long area following the course of the River Odet. Geo-location determined an 80 percent match between the current geography and that depicted on the slab. Such a creation would have been within the purview of a local political or military leader.
