Monica Sjoo and Barbara Mor in the book “The Great Cosmic Mother -Rediscovering the Religion of the Earth” (via sacredwoman)
There’s a lot of nonsense right here, but let’s just pick out Joan of Arc. What the fuck, guys, her “witch coven associations” were allegations made by her enemies along with a slew of other slanders. Joan of Arc was really fucking Christian, and was passionate about her love for the Christian god, and claiming her as a pagan is about as tasteful as Mormons posthumously baptising people into their church.
Never trust anyone who treats ancient spirituality like a monolith, or who thinks they can generalise about ALL cultural heroes.
In fact you can probably simplify your life a lot if whenever anyone says “all cultures” you throw your drink into their face. If you don’t have a drink, get one, you’ll need it.
