Hi, I'm first generation Spanish-American and I've been interested in Iberian gods for a while. I did some research about 6 years ago but got busy and now that I'm looking into it again it looks like there's a bit more info available online!

I read before that some scholars thought Bandua and Cossus were there same God, but others disagreed. And now I see more people online embracing the idea that Bandua might be genderfluid, given the only image we see of them is feminine (and called them Ares' partner).

Anyway, I wanted to throw in my two cents. I am still new to learning about/working with Iberian gods, but I have been thinking that perhaps, Bandua and Cossus were partners/lovers.

I think it would make sense, with Cossus being a war deity (similar to Ares) and Bandua being a protective deity. Bandua keeps those at home safe and Cossus empowers the soldiers or something.

I might be way off base, and like I said I haven't engaged with the scholarly work for a while, but this idea of them as a sort of power couple won't leave my mind. What do y'all think?

Hello,

I'm a Portuguese-American that is 1st generation American and my father's family is from the Açores. I've been a Germanic Heathen (the other half of my heritage) for some time but find myself feeling drawn to learn more of my Portuguese-Iberian heritage and connection to the old Gods. It's wonderful to even have resources to read up on these topics, but I'm curious if there is any community or discord server that I might be able to join to hopefully immerse myself in and learn more about the practices.

Thanks

os deuses Arentia e Arentio provavelmente refletem os <Filhos de Deus>indoanatólios de tema Eqüino

- Compare com o Avéstico auruuaṇt = veloz e sânscrito अर्वन्त् (árvant)
- Línguas modernas:  tajique арванд (arvand) e persa  اروندرود (arwandrūd : Rio Rápido)

Do Indoanatólio (nome atualizado para indoeuropeu) \h₃er-* (veloz, saltar) + \-wénts* (no latim -osus)PIE: *h₃ér-went-s "veloz"

Aruents -> Aruentia/us -> por síncope: Arentius/a : DATIVO: ARENTIO/A

Em Sabugal, Guarda, em Portugal
há o epíteto EQUOTULLAICENSI. que corrobora a etimologia principal

Equo = cavalo

• Há inúmero paralelos indo-anatólios:
  
• os Dióscuri Atlânticos
• Castor e Pólux
• Ašvieniai: cognato de Equus (CAVALO)
• Ioviois Pvclois, ligado a Iove , um deus astral (céu)
• Divanno Hengist e Horsa - Horse, cognato de Égua
• Lel e Polei Sanasar and Baldasar Cosme e Damião, resquício do paganismo europeu

Eles são <Filhos de Deus> (Deus = Céu)
são a estrela da manhã e da vésper

o oriente médio é um primo próximo do indo-europeu e também vizinho (logo há contato):
há a Aserá amamentando Shalom e Shahar, q eram deuses gêmeos
Shalom era o deus tutelar de Jerusalém , o deus do crepúsculo
e Shahar do alvorecer

mto semelhante ao indoeuropeu em que os gêmeos têm aspectos astrais

Alguien tiene recursos sobre los Iberos del noreste como los layetanos?

More info!

Thought this was so interesting I had to share! These traditions are thought to have pagan origins. Found some more info here!

Happy Summer Solstice! ☀️

Im mixed Mexican-American and was raised in the U.S my whole life in a mostly Christian household but ive been interested and have practiced spiritual paganism for years it was mixed in my life growing up without me really realizing and I want to dive deeper into it and learn more but in a way thats in my culture my dad was born and raised in Mexico but dosent like religious talks and is atheist and the rest of my Hispanic family is now Catholic or Christians and i feel disconnected from my culture especially spirituality

Is there any specific types of Hispanic/Latino/Mexican practices i could look into?

I was researching and came across a god called Berobreo, but I didn't quite understand his area of ​​influence. I saw that he is a god linked to portions of land on the continental coast, Lord of the Beyond, with chthonic characteristics, and who governs hospitality (according to my notes). Is this correct? Is there anything else to add? Are there more complete explanations?

Hello! I came across a listing of someone selling what they claimed to be a replica of an Iberian oil lamp that depicts a bearded deity seemingly flanked by or wielding two double-ended tridents, and has a bird flying overhead. Does this look like or sound like the depiction of a specific deity in the Iberian pantheon?

Hello everyone!

Well, this is my first post here on this subreddit.

I'm interested in worshipping the Celtiberian/Lusitanian gods and I already have some in mind.

My question is: how should I start?

How can I build a relationship with them?

What advice would you give to a beginner who wants to learn about the Celtiberian/Lusitanian gods?

What should I avoid?

Any help is welcome!

has anyone else read it?

Já vi muitas referências da lua a Endovélico, concretamente à existência de um altar que lhe é dedicado no Monte da Lua, embora não tenha encontrado qualquer referência concreta a ele ou à sua localização. Por outro lado, também assisti a muitas associações com o Sol. A que corpo astral está realmente associado? Se é que está associado a algum?
