Deities

Post # 1
Merry Meet all.
I have been to many websites in my search for all the Pagan Gods and Goddesses. I seem to have found quite a bit but I am not sure if they are the true deities from Paganism. If anybody can, please name all of the Pagan deities.
Thank you and Blessed Be

There are so many different pantheons full of deities that I don't think it'd be an easy task for anyone to name all of them in one sitting. Do you have any particular pantheons in mind?

I do not. I'm just trying to finish my long search for the Gods and Goddesses.

I'm afraid the list is far too exhaustive to go through in its entirety, I'd be surprised if there is any one person that could list all the gods of the many pagan faiths. Particularly of the more "forgotten" faiths there a number of deities that we are still unsure of if they were originally the same entity or not, take Brighid for example, she has been described as a triple goddess with three aspects and as three sister goddesses simply bearing the same name. Many of the different faiths also bear a number of different pantheons and types of deity which could questionably be called a deity, to draw from Celtic lore once again the Cailleach is an important figure but there is a degree of disagreement to whether she is a goddess or not, she also features in many different tales with greatly varying roles.

I understand. I suppose it would be easier to start off with one pantheon at a time. I will start off that. Thanks for the help :)

First, there are Pagan gods from pagan religions. They are not gods from Paganism (it's more of an umbrella)
Second, there are many, although I wouldn't trust the Internet they do put a lot of 'fake' gods(esses) up.. Your best choice is to look at folklore and myths :)
