Self Description

Clan Ogma is a small group of polytheists following the deities reverenced in these lands since at least the Iron Age, if not earlier. We work with our
Gods in rituals designed to appeal to both Their tastes and ours. Our rituals are not duplications of ancient festivities, though we draw
inspiration from what little is known of earlier times.

We formed in the winter of 1993, and meet in towns, villages, woodlands and sea-shores around the Suffolk-Essex borders in East Anglia, UK. Membership is open to men and women over the age of 18, regardless of race or (consensual) sexual preferences.

Through storytelling and ancient arts and crafts, we also aim to educate both a wider Pagan audience and the public generally in the achievements of
Iron Age British and Irish tribes. We find this to be something our Gods aprove of.

Our primary patron is Ogmios, a god much concerned with the written and spoken word, wit education, storytelling, poetry, song and wisdom generally.

We meet fortnightly for a mixture of study, ritual, arts and crafts, storytelling and general socialising.
