First off, welcome to Pagan Devotionals.
This blog was created because there simply isn’t a lot of devotional material gathered in any one place for Pagans. Nor is there very much writing on devotional practices within the Pagan community, and what writing there is, is pretty scattered across the net and often confined to specific traditions, and sometimes difficult for people not familiar with a particular path or tradition to find.
I am hoping that I can have your help in creating a bank of prayers, hymns, myths, artwork, video clips, poems, stories, etc that speak from the soul about what it means to be Pagan–whether it be from a hard polytheist and/or reconstructionist standpoint or a pantheistic eclectic one (and everything in between). Feel free to email submissions–either items from the public domain, or ones that are applicable under fair use standards, or your own (full credit and links to personal sites will be given).
Also, I am hoping to create a good book list of print devotionals or prayer books (which will be its own page in the top bar), as well as a list of links of articles and posts concerning personal devotional practices. If you have any recommendations, please let me know!
While we may be on separate paths, with differing ways of experiencing divinity, there is no reason that we can’t learn from one another and grow together…even if it is in different directions.
Thanks,
Thalassa

Hi,
My name is Maya and I’m particularly interested in Pagan traditions. I also write poetry with related topics and would like to contribute to your site – only I cannot find an email for submissions. Thanks in advance for your help.

Sorry about that! I’ll take a look at what is going on there… You can send submissions (and your author info and links) to thalassa.musings@gmail.com. It generally takes me a day or so… If you want to be a regular contributor, I can add you thru wordpress and you can publish stuff whenever you like.

Hello, there is quite alot of devotional material on the Dun Brython website, which is dedicated to the Brythonic gods so might be of interest if you’d like to network between similar sites: http://www.dunbrython.org/

How do I search for devotionals to specific deity such as Fenrir?

I don’t think we have anything specifically for Fenrir, but there should be search bar.
Okay, never mind…when I changed themes, the search disappeared…
This is something I’ll get on fixing today! Sorry about that!

Hello Grady, as far as I can see there are two main publishers of devotionals to individual deities.
Neosalexandria covers Greek, Roman and Egyptian deities: http://neosalexandria.org/
Asphodel Press mainly covers Norse and Germanic deities, but also some from other cultures: http://www.asphodelpress.com/
So far I haven’t seen anything for Fenrir. Asphodel Press provides some excellent guidelines for writing devotionals. If you can’t find anything for Fenrir maybe think about writing / compiling one? 🙂
