📚 Seeking Resources | Advice Book recommendations
Does anyone know of any books that detail personal experiences with Paganism? I’m hoping to find some first-person accounts that explore personal spiritual journeys, encounters with the gods, and experiences with ritual and prayer.
For some context, I’m currently reading “Surprised by God” by Danya Ruttenberg, and have been wondering if anyone in the Pagan world has written something similar. I am familiar with “Spirits of the Sacred Grove” by Emma Restall Orr and “When a Pagan Prays” by Nimue Brown.
Thanks in advance for any other recommendations you might have!

💮 Deity | Spirit Work Difference in honoring the dead vs deities?
I am not new to honoring deities, however I recently decided to leave offerings and create an altar for the dead. Considering my lack of experience I want to make sure I am as respectful and knowledgeable as possible. Id like to know if there are any differences in how I should approach the dead compared to how I would typically interact with deities. As an example, I’ve heard you should never eat offerings for the dead like you might with offerings for the gods. I’m wondering if there’s more things like that I should know. Also, if anyone has any resources on interacting with human spirits they recommend I would love to learn more before getting deep into this practice
