Magic Monday

[ecosophia]

I'm going to be shocking and launch this week's Magic Monday a few minutes early, since I'm here on Dreamwidth,. (The picture is Thomas Taylor, the great Regency-era Platonist and worshiper of the Greek Gods, godfather of the modern Neopagan revival)

Ask me anything about occultism and I'll do my best to answer it. Any question received by midnight Monday Eastern time will get an answer, though it may be Tuesday sometime before I get to them all.

I've had several people ask about tipping me for answers here, and though I certainly don't require that I won't turn it down. You can use the button below to access my online tip jar. 

With that said, have at it!

Balenced pantheon of gods

[sea_spray]

Hi JMG

You’ve previously talked about how a pantheon of deities from a single tradition represents a balanced set but that deities are balanced by nature. You also said that it was common practice to pray to deities from multiple traditions.

Are there any risks to missing some from your personal pantheon. Is there are particular set of the welsh deities that you would recommend working with achieve a balanced set.
I’m working my way through the set you reference in the DMH for the SOP. Would this be a balanced set? Are there any particular practices to improve the clarity of responses to prayer?

Thanks

Yes, the set I give in the DMH is balanced; that's why I gave it. ;-) As for practices to improve the clarity of responses to prayer, sure -- pray a lot, and when you pray, do at least as much listening as talking.
