Paganism is a broad term that encompasses various spiritual and religious beliefs, practices, and traditions that are not aligned with the major Abrahamic religions. One significant aspect of paganism is the veneration and worship of multiple gods and goddesses. In pagan belief systems, gods and goddesses are seen as powerful beings who embody certain aspects of the natural world, human experiences, and different aspects of life. These deities are often associated with specific domains such as fertility, war, love, wisdom, and more.

Some of these deities include Norse gods like Odin, Thor, and Freyja; Greek gods like Zeus, Aphrodite, and Apollo; Roman gods like Jupiter, Venus, and Mercury; Egyptian gods like Ra, Isis, and Anubis; and Celtic gods like Brigid, Lugh, and Morrigan, among others.
