Are any of the Classical Pagan religions still active, like the Cult of Jupiter or Dionysus?

Answer 1

Many of them have been reborn, recreated. But I do not believe there is an unbroken line. In Greece it has been illegal under orthodox rule to even worship the old Gods at their temples. It's quite sad really. And I'm sure the vatican, which was once the seat of worship of Pagan Gods squashed the Roman Gods as effectively as the Greek Orthodox church squashed the Greek Gods. But yes, these religions do exist now.

Answer 2

In Iceland and some parts of Scandinavia, norse cults like Odinism and Asatru have been alive for centuries and centuries. Although these days there's a flood of neopagan copies of the religion, in some places the forms of worship are almost intact ever since the viking age.

Answer 3

::nods:: They tend to be a lot less common than the newer religions like Wicca, but there are a few rebuilt groups out there. Certain ones, like the Elusian Mysteries, are long lost, but there are things like the Flame Keepers of Brighid, etc.

Answer 4

Actually there are several, Christmas which is the worship of wiccan gods, and the winter and summer soloists. regarding any of the planets, it is the same with horoscopes which have it in common of course.

Answer 5
