The ancient Greeks often merged their own gods and goddesses with foreign deities in a process of religious syncretism.

couldnt focus on my work last night so i started ranting about religious syncretism on discord to my friends and an hour passed by. dude 😭 i genuinely cannot shut up when it comes to history, culture, or religion, so good luck on getting me to shut up when all 3 are mentioned /silly

something about spanish colonization not erasing Filipino culture and beliefs because they found a way to integrate catholicism into their own practices really gets me. even in everyday life its there. not much talked about by Filipinos themselves and at the same time its either disregarded or only honored as a part of history. its a shame honestly

Trying to Find Stand in Statures for Deities is a Pain in the Ass

Sometimes trying to find a statue to represent a Deity is frustrating as Hell, especially when You know You aren't going to find a statue specifically made for said Deity. I'm currently looking for and am failing to find a decent enough statue to represent Damona, and it's driving Me up a wall!

I mean, I'm aware that there is evidence of a broken statue that was found for Damona that appears fairly similar to that of Sirona, but honestly I'm uncomfortable with going with the easiest option. I'm aware that Sirona is commonly syncrenized with Salus and/or Hygieia, based on Roman Interpretation. I know where I can buy a statue of of Hygieia, but once again, I'm uncomfortable about doing so, even if the fledgling side of My Galic Polytheist practice ends up delving into Gallo-Roman Polytheism for whatever reason.

Being too uncomfortable with the easiest option, I started looking for Fairy Girl statues that featured Cows, but I haven't found any so far. I have no idea if Damona has any connection with Fairies at all, I looked in that direction first because I have had a ton of luck so far when looking at Fairy statues to help fill in the gaps when I'm trying and failing to find a statue for a "Celtic" deity. Any attempt at finding a statue of a Woman that features a Cow keeps leading Me into interesting territory. For the most part, statues of Hindu Goddesses keep showing up, which is not what I'm looking for at all.

there’s a grief that comes with practicing a religion considered “dead”, if it’s even acknowledged as existing in the first place. we don’t even have evidence of what the religious day-to-day was like, just theories. greco-buddhism lives and breathes, she is not just a cultural exchange from long ago.

question for unorthodox religious/spiritual folks who don’t put full authority in one specific text or tradition: how do y’all make sure you’re not picking and choosing your beliefs based on what you want to be true
