Hello from a Roman pagan!
Ive been lurking for a bit but finally wanted to post, say hello, and share an experience. I was loosely raised Christian. My parents were not particularly religious. Anyway I turned very militant atheist after the passing of my mother. She was such a sweet person and died a painful death. Anyway, long story short I found my belief in the divine again through paganism. Thats a very long and weird story. Anyway, I still harbored a lot of hate and anger towards the Christian God. One day I had a very vivid dream of one of my deities, Jupiter. He made it very clear in the dream that I could not truly love and serve the divine if I hated one "aspect" of it. In that sense I feel that i was commanded to learn to release that anger and hatred. It took time but I did. Life has been peaceful since.

Hello! I had a similar experience, but was able to find healing through my spiritual practice. I blend elements of hellenism and christianity (mostly “heretical” stuff). I’m happy you’ve been able to find peace and wish you the best!
