Do I have to worship a Deity? I feel like I want to, but I haven’t been called to one. When I think about it, I get a little overwhelmed. It feels like it’s something that I need to do now. How did it work for you? The only one I think speaks to me is Gaia but even then, I’m not sure where to begin.

Definitely not required! If and when you feel called, then do it. Gaia is easy. You can just walk barefoot on the earth for a start, and feel the bond. I choose to work with spirit, rather than deities, as a personal choice. Do what feels right for you.

I will try that. Maybe she has called to me. I have walked barefoot outside before and always liked doing it, I have to remember to do it more often. Thank you.

If you don’t feel naturally drawn to a certain pantheon or deity, then you don’t need to force it. I will say that witchcraft didn’t make any sense to me until I became an animist, druid-in-training, and Norse pagan. But I felt a strong pull to my patron god. If you don’t have that, don’t stress. Just research what you’re interested in, and your path will be made clear to you in time.

Good morning, @underwaxingmoon - as you’re hearing, you absolutely don’t have to worship a deity, especially if you don’t feel drawn to any! As a Pagan myself my only true deity is Gaia, but I also feel a strong pull to the Sun and Moon, but not drawn to further deities at this time.
As @bethany says, just continue to research the things that are interesting to you, and follow along that path. Everything will fall into place for you and it will feel like the most natural thing in the world.

That’s kind of where I was leaning, so confused lol. I’m glad to see these replies though, it makes me feel a lot better about not being so sure. I will keep studying and just see what calls to me. thank you for your reply.

Good morning and thank you for your response!
I feel a pull to the Sun and Moon as well; I just thanked the Sun this morning as I opened my curtain and it was honestly the first time, I’ve ever done that, I just had a feeling to say thank you. I think I’ll make it part of my morning ritual. While I’m still not 100 percent sure, I thin Gaia is calling me, but I’m going to give it some time to see.
