Personal Gnosis: Judging the Spiritual Experience with Raven Kaldera
Most Pagans (and other polytheistic minority religions) would agree that personal experiences of Deit(ies) are fine when they’re kept to yourself … but what about when they’re not? How do we decide whose divine messages get incorporated into group practice, and whose don’t? How can we trust each other? How did the ancient world handle these issues?

Please come with intent to be courteous and respectful of others’ views; the moderator is a hardass and will not tolerate rudeness.
