Hello all. Im new here, been a lurker until now. I grew up catholic but renounced my for a multitude of reasons around the age of 16. I don't have a religion but I am spiritual/agnostic and in tune with the idea of there being multiple gods or deities. I have a friend who is Wiccan and invited me to they're for for they're birthday party. One of the people at the party I was talking to at the party after talking about life for a while suggested I do some research on Dionysus. After some surface level research and reading you all talk on here I do feel a draw to Dionysus. So my question is do I have to start down the path of one of the religions first before I continue my connection with Dionysus? For reference Im a bi poly male in my 30s and a bit of an anarchist.

Edit: Thank you all for your feedback. Hearing from all of you has honestly been enlightening. Im going to continue to do more research, starting with the links that have been provided. I love the vibe here. Until next time, peace be to all of you :)
