About the Book
From the early pagan revival of the Roman Emperor Julian to the nature religion of the Romantics, ancient Greek religion has held an enduring place in the Western imagination. Now, after centuries of dormancy, Hellenic polytheism is once again taking its place among the living religions of the world.
Old Stones, New Temples is the first comprehensive introduction to Hellenic Reconstructionist Paganism, a historically based revival of the ancient religion. Carefully researched and documented, this book provides everything a modern person needs to practice Hellenic Paganism:
- more than 20 festivals, with scripts for modern use
- birth, coming-of-age, marriage, funerary rites
- detailed information about the gods, nature divinities, and more
- the Eleusinian Mysteries, Orphism, and Pythagoreanism
- daily devotions to bring the gods into your life
- divination and oracles
- living Hellenic ethics today
- feast menus, incense formulary, and more
- extensive bibliography
For anyone seeking an authentic connection with the religion of ancient Greece, Old Stones, New Temples is an inspiring guide to Hellenic practice.
