A megalithic, astrotheistic pagan faith that existed in select areas of south Zemia.
A megalithic, astrotheistic pagan faith that existed in select areas of south Zemia. The faith doesn't have gods, but instead worships the stars and celestial events.
Holy Sites
Stone Circles: These are the primary places of worship. Each circle is dedicated to a specific celestial phenomenon or constellation, such as the wolder-s-path constellation (a Circle of the Morning Star), the sunrise on the summer solstice (a Solar Gate), or lunar phases and eclipses (a Shadow Ring).
There are also other structures that serve similar purposes in the faith, such as sacred pools that are kept still to reflect the night sky during ceremonies.
Tenets of Faith
- (TODO
- make this less D&D coded)
- The Cosmos is Sacred
- the celestial sky is a divine force of order and chaos. It is a manifestation of the universe's inherent beauty and danger.
- Harmony Through Observation
- Understanding the movements of celestial bodies allows mortals to align themselves with the universe's will.
- Cycles and Eternity
- Time is cyclical, governed by the movements of celestial bodies. Concepts like solstices, equinoxes, eclipses, and planetary alignments hold spiritual significance.
- Mortality and Stardust
- All life originates from the stars and returns to them upon death. Spending time under the sky is vital, else your connection will weaken and you may not be able to continue the cycle.
- Stone Circles and Cosmic Hubs
- Monuments serve as tools to map and harness celestial power. They are aligned with specific star constellations.
