Goddess Monotheism

[Araceli Cianna]

I'm a Christian but I recently came across Filianism/Deanism which I'm hoping to blend with my current beliefs. It's a monotheistic Goddess religion but can be practiced side-by-side God-centered monotheistic religions too (for example I am already a Goddess Christian and believe the Holy Spirit is feminine, making the jump to Deanism wasn't that hard for me)

Shaktism
There is one formless divine feminine energy (Shakti) and all gods and goddesses are Her expression.

Two previous posters mentioned Filianism as a currently practiced form of Goddess Monotheism. This is true. I just want to add a bit to this. To many of its independent practitioners it is normally referred to as De'anism i.e. as the religion of Dea. There are multiple forms of this religion but most of its believers are also Filiani, worshippers of the Daughter / Filia. However, the specific form Deanism which I practice, which is more on the model of Judaism, is not Daughter centered.

Note some persons believe that Deanism / Filianism is a female only religion or is matriarchal as it is popularly understood as the rule of women over men. The religion in fact does have males as members and many members believe in an equality between the sexes.

There is a Godess Temple where I am presently living.
I don't think it is montheistic, more like a local Godess.
Here's the link for more info http://www.goddesstemple.co.uk/

(BTW we have many badgers here and have been on badger watch a couple of times)

Many Gnostic sects are dualistic monotheists that regard Barbelo, the divine mother, as God. These are collectively known sometimes as the Barbeliotae Gnostics.
