This is not something new I am doing, if you Google "FinShaggy" followed by the list of Gods, you will find old threads where I had been recognizing these Gods for a while, and had just found Pashupati, which linked Pan and Shiva in the Ancient world.
My Gods are:
Pan, Shiva, Atum, Ra & Mut
And since I have found out more about Christmas and Mexico, I have also begun to revere Mithra (The Solstice God) & Teonanácatl.
You can choose whatever Gods you want, but I am going to explain mine. You find your Gods by finding what you like to do. I have mentioned before that Planets are Gods, Seasons are Gods, the Sun is a God, Dung Beetles are a God, etc.
Pan: Pan is within every human as well as in the world at large. Pan is the God of the Wilderness, the Pasture and the Shepherds. I revere him because I personally find the idea of Arcadia to be amazing. If you Google Arcadia, it is basically what they based heaven on. You are "Pan" when you do something Wild and you are "Pan" when you do something out of your way that is nice. Pan is just a force that you can tap into in yourself, and we all do. Pan and Jesus both had their deaths announced around the same time. Except people thought Jesus died into their hearts, while Pan (the Wilderness in us) became harnessed by the church.
Shiva: Shiva is related to Dancing, Marijuana, Males and Fatherhood. Shiva's pre-form is Rudra, who is the God who plays with poisons and cures, roars, is red and has knotted hair. These are not "Magic Men", they are just representations. Vedic belief is cyclical, when you read the Rig Veda it says a human goes from 4 legs, to 2 legs, to 3 legs. Baby, to man, to old man with a cane. So when they talk about the Gods, they are talking about different things that Society can use. And it also allows you to recognize shifts. Like how the Egyptians saw Dung beetles go from egg to Larva to Beetle, which allowed them to see that things changed, so they knew that a roudy kid might end up doing something good if they pointed it in the right direction. The Hindu mythology allows you to see Rudra (someone who plays with poisons and cures and has knots in their hair) becomes Shiva.
Atum: The God who created himself, also sometimes in the form of AtumRa. Similar to the Hindu myth of Creation, Atum creates the universe through mirroring. In Hindu they say Gods created the universe by "Mimicking" each other. in Egypt they said the first God created the Earth by mixing with his own shadow, or Masturbating, and since he was both male and female it created the universe. And you can look into that and say that Egyptian mythology is ALL wrong, or you can say that that seems like a representation of "Ying and Yang" and slowly we are discovering that the world has matter and anti-matter, so it wasn't such a bad guess after all, and they figured it out by watching things glass melting and reflections being made and shadows being cast, etc.
Ra: Ra is the Sun. Ra gives everything energy and life on Earth. You can also use the sun to measure time, which has always been important.
Mut: The Mother, sometimes identified with Ma'at or Isis or Hathor, Mut is basically the Queen of the Gods and can be found as "Venus" and "Cybele" and various other Goddesses throughout the world.
Mithra: Has been explained in various parts of this thread as well as the video in the first post.
Teonanácatl: Is also known as "Magic Mushrooms" in the Western World.
