Are the Wiccan, Pagan and Heathen gods and goddesses anthropomorphic?

0

The Pagan deities are both. Many pagans, such as the Celtic and Norse, and those who use the Roman or Greek gods/goddesses, see the deities as having human or human-like forms. Some are only spirits, concepts and aren’t really shown in artwork. You can’t make a picture or a statue of a concept very well. Almost all the Hindu gods and goddesses are shown as somewhat human, but they are all really ‘concept’ gods. The Celtic gods are often actually thought to be real beings who became ‘deified’ after enough time had past. The Norse gods were always assumed to be able to Take human form. I think is probably true of all the concepts of the pre-Christian and non-Abrahamic gods. They are said to inhabit another World/Dimension. When they are there, who is to say if they are corporeal or not? But when they interact with humans, they do so in human guise.
