pagan practices

Old religion rituals

Pagan practices are rituals, customs, or spiritual observances associated with pre-Christian or non-Abrahamic religions—worship of nature, multiple deities, or ancestral spirits.

The term covers ancient traditions (Roman festivals, Celtic rites) and modern revivals (Wicca, Druidry).

In Christian contexts, pagan practices often carries disapproval, implying idol worship or superstition: The church condemned such pagan practices.
