Druidry, Wicca, and Feri are Neo-Pagan Traditions that derive a large part of their cosmology and concepts of deity from ancient Anglo-Saxon, Celtic, Gaelic, and other Northern European religions. Neo-Pagan Traditions vary in practice and their specific pantheons differ according to the cultures in which they ground their religious practice.

Who Are the Pagan and Neo-Pagan Deities?

Most Neo-Pagan Traditions are polytheistic, celebrating several gods and goddesses in their practice. Typically the god and goddess are portrayed as consorts to one another, and their story of courtship, love, conception, childbirth, death, and transition back to life are the focus of their mysteries in Neo-Pagan holiday celebrations. Below is a list of typical types of gods and goddesses found in many Neo-Pagan Traditions, including Druidry, Wicca, and the Feri Tradition.
