The Pagan community as a whole is built upon nature and what nature represents. Many of the gods worshipped have been seen to inhabit both masculine and feminine forms, most notably Loki —though it is unclear as to how Loki identifies in this example.
Much of the Pagan belief system is based around masculine and feminine figures and their heteronormative union. There is however a conscious effort to move the practice is to a more nonbinary inclusive space.[1] A Pagan named Sidney Eileen wrote in 2019 that, "When you entirely drop the concept of the binary, male and female are still included, but instead of placing them in conflict with each other, they become equal parts of a more diverse whole."[2]
