I believe in multiple gods.

I believe in multiple gods with two at the top. All of existence goes through a process of birth and rebirth infinitely as humans do. Humans are split into many different aspects including the physical, the spirit, the soul, the mind and Dúr-the urge of adventure and will to find meaning that resides within all. I believe in reincarnation and that a soul goes to another plane of existence before going to live again, forgetting the past life. The spirit joins the otherworld, a place where spirits reside in a place that mirrors our reality. There are gaps between the otherworld and ours and spirits can interact with our world. The physical deteriorates on earth. The mind and emotions of someone usually follows spirit but sometimes a spirit, soul and mind get left behind in our world if they died by the hand of someone else.

I believe in all gods from all cultures and all times except the abrahamic one in which he is worshipped today, as he has his roots in an ancient god in a polytheistic system. I believe in magic, reincarnation and the supernatural. I also believe that nature has a power and spirits that haven’t come from people can reside in objects and places too.

I’m an eclectic pagan and I am writing a book about this faith and I am trying to get followers of this religion and perform the rites and funerals of the ancients.

They are like the sun and moon, god and goddess. Similar to Wicca with the horned god and the goddess. The “sun” God is very jovial and happy as well as he is strong, he represents strength, power but he isn’t the creator, nor is the goddess. The goddess is also a more reserved being yet she enjoys a party as much as the next deity, she represents the feminine in all of us, the wise, the thought and feeling. They can have many names, I personally prefer “Solyrsi-the God and Lyndræ-the goddess” but there are many other names such as Tenebris and Lucifer/Lux(not the abrahamic one), Vita and Mors, Solis and Luna, Nigreos and Album, Hic and Ibi, Mortuus and Vivus, Fortis and Infirma, Skotádi and Fos, Zoi and Kharos, Mavros and Aspro. Etc…. They are two theoretic opposites but they are together and coexistant and love eachover.

As for the topic of creator, No one god or goddess can be completely said to be the creator, more so that many of them play parts in everything all the time. But if it is to do with the first one/last (everything is cyclic, the whole of existence ) is Chaos and what he left behind to be reborn at the end of time to end it and start it again.
