hey there! Sybil here. this wiki aims to providing beginner pagans with a fair number of resources to start researching non-Abrahimic religions and beliefs - a pagan religion is any religion that did not originate from an Abrahimic one. it was first created for the pagans' cozy corner, but it is nonetheless at the disposal of all P&W .
I'd also like to add that the following list will be, from time to time, updated as me and the rest of the mods team run into even more resources and practices.
without further ado, I'll leave you to the resources!
