    My experience with Pan was positive! The most intriguing dream I ever had was one where I found a glass whistle, blew on it, and Pan appeared. He told me to blow on it anytime I needed him. Then we ran around playing before he ran off and disappeared. He seemed very kind! I hadn’t thought of Pan in a very long time and had to research him after having the dream. I interpreted the dream as advice to not take myself too seriously and have carefree fun from time to time.

    you must be a good person i am a bit jealous honestly greek deities are all about been virtues as a person they appear only to good persons and those appearance are signs about something usually although you can interpret them however you want. if you saw pan himself know his body is a metaphor for duality. His human part means the souls they are searching for a way to be free and ascend and the beast side is the material side so these could mean you may search a bit the spirituality but you are still bound by some material needs or whatever.

    My take on Pan was that he is "the god of the wild forest". He could induce panic or madness if you got lost in the woods, and he has this duality between night and day. During the day he was a cute fury fornicator, but at night he became a frightening predator. All this is probably a modern take that people put together, drawing inspiration from historical accounts. I like that your videos give a more accurate historical account. Its hard to find that in digestible form.

    I do not think there is duality just because he is half goat and half man i strongly disagree his goat legs were a metaphor for him having strong legs like a goat because goats can jump in the edges of cliffs and not real goat legs as for his horns back the ancient ways they used to wear animal skull masks thus the horns had were from that mask not sure why everyone image poor pan as half goat half man really. There is a deeper meaning behind pan other than what you described but you are unlucky i cannot find a post i found few years ago.

    Not exactly if pan comes from" panik"i mean that is what i am hearing but it could be from the word "παν" meaning everything and if you read the orphic hymns there is apart that says his human members are parts of nature he is nature deity and he was one of the first gods it shows that ancient people probably people before the time the cities existed during the time of small settlements in nature that is when they made pan. It stacks because it is in that time that priests or more likely the settlement shamans wore animal skulls in their heads so that is why he has horns on his legs or at least that is my interpretation

    Keep in mind that 'madness' in Greek times was not how we view it today. It was more similar to having an "episode" in our modern parlance than it was being mentally ill. Being drunk was a form of madness, being too obviously emotional could be labeled madness, panic was a form of madness, hence the name. Dionysus could and would inflict madness as well and he was part of the Pantheon. So don't think of inflicting madness as inflicting a permanent mental illness, it more meant "make them have an episode".

    My first thought is, "Pan is neither good nor evil. Like all gods (yes, even that one), Pan is powerful, arbitrary, and interested only in what Pan is interested in. The good goddess is good because that is her interest. Pan is interested in the wild. Even Loki - he's Loki because he likes to stir things up." Also - when you're delighted with something, the whole building lights up.

    This comment also brings up the modern issue with the words "Worship" and "Idolize". Because of Christianity and other Abrahamic Faiths, as well as some other similar morally-polarized faith, we view it as meaning "think is perfect" or "want to be like". However, worship used to be very transactional. You didn't worship and make offerings to a god because you believed they were 'good', you did it to obtain a fraction of their power. Likewise, idolization means to raise something to godhood, but godhood does not mean noble, just, or good intrinsically. It just means powerful. Even if a god like Pan was "evil", it wouldn't mean his worshippers were. That's a transplantation of Abrahamic outlook that any worship of any thing that is not their God is inherently evil.

    "El Gran dios Pan ha muerto" You made me remember (in my own language😅) reading that quote in a book that mention that story talking about the soon to come end of Paganism and the advent of Christianity as the new religion. For me is curious how Pan, being part man part animal, represented the union of man and nature, or the part of mankind that still resisted "civilization"/"reason", still in contact with that "darker"/"occult" part of our past devoted to a more harmonic relationship with our surroundings. And how that dichotomy comes and goes throughout out history. About the DNA test, I´m curious to take one, as an an average argentinian I know I have strong european/criollo heritage and a bit of indian, but I´d like to confirm how is my family tree. Greetings Cinzia! Great video as always.

    Per the idea that Pan is fathered by all of his suiters... this is likely just ancient retconning in attempt at etymology. Since Pan means "all" most myths relating to his origin somehow include the word as part of his story. In Homer's account, he is accept by "all" of the Gods. In the Orphic hymns, he is "the god of All"... the chaotic and ecstatic counterpoint to the concept of Physis... the Universe in flowing growth. It is also possible that it could be related to his status as a Rustic god... a god for the common people and the artisocracy alike... a god for all.

    Not trying to be nitpicky but hopefully helpful, your pop filter seem to be a bit too close to the microphone and so you still get bass heavy "puffs" coming through. Try moving it closer to your mouth, the distance between micophone and mesh should be no less than 10 cm.

    As a panromantic demi, I stan Pan. His pushiness is problematic in some stories, but I think that reflects the writers' psyches more than his true nature... which is Nature. "The Piper at the Gates of Dawn" chapter of The Wind in the Willows is one of my favorite things.

    Is, dear. Not was. Is everything evil? Granted, there is evil in the world, but when one is a pantheist and views the whole as divine, does it follow that moral consistency is inherent with a multiverse filled with an infinite variety of moral types? Besides, what is moral and what isn't? That's an entirely different issue.

    Pan is a Primal from old forest European animism. Male fertility, male lust. The Abrahamics are all about sexual repression. Of course they hated him. As a Primal, there is no good or evil to his existence, he just is and is necessary to the whole. He's also one of the musical gods, the divine artists.

    No, I don’t think All Abrahamics are sexually repressive, it’s just we tend to see certain sex’s acts are Bad, while others are fine. We also tend to think procreation is first before sexual pleasure for a man and a women. That’s why homosexuality is looked down apon is because it’s not procreative. Not because it can be loving. There is no Rules to sexual ethics but it’s we want to hold sexuality to such high standers because we don’t want to take the dignity of a human person. That includes - Masterbation -Anal Sex - Oral sex - even using sex toys. It’s because we believe the sexual act in marriage “Marriage/as only between man and Women” is suppose to be sacred. If we can change some rules and try to see why Something like Homosexuality shouldn’t be demonized, understand that being against wasn’t ever meant to be against certain things or people. That’s why it tends to be “sexuality repression” We don’t believe that sex only has to be physical. It’s spiritual. We also don’t believe In “look away” but look up to God and thank for the beauty of the person. It doesn’t sound too bad at times, especially if you are against Pornography and the harm it does.

Sex is spiritual, but I have not a single envy to invite God in a shared bed, there's clearly not the place, and I bet he is a snoring one in his sleep. Truth is, in my book God only existed to devote sincerely your soul to him, and then find a girl, the girl, who will make you betray him in a heartbeat if she asked.

    For me as a person who has studied religions at university it’s very very interesting to see once again how Christianity really tries to demonise every polytheism of the former times. For me it’s very important to see the Bible as a historic book and to know the history why things are written in the Bible and by Christian philosophers after that how they are.
