If you’re active in pagan communities online, it’s likely you’ve noticed a trend developing over the last several years—every other person I talk to is working with Loki. Or Lucifer and Lilith. Possibly also Hades. And the infernal divine, too.
That can’t be right, can it? Not everyone can work with the same entities, that’s just too convenient.
Or is it?
Actually, it’s not all that strange for entities, deities, and traditions to run in trends throughout the pagan community. It just defies some of our human sensibilities.
This week, Megan and I explore trends in paganism from the late 19th century to modern-day and discuss how and why particular practices, ideologies, and even deities rise and fall in relevance to the context of each decade.
Also, I have a cold and you can hear it in my voice. Please forgive the blurred and slurred wording from time to time.
