Definitions sacred - from Latin sacer (“set off, restricted”) As a pagan living in the United States, finding sacred sites can be difficult. Christian churches abound but there are very few spaces that qualify as full time standing temples dedicated to ancient divinities. Unlike Britain and other European countries, we have very few standing stone sites or holy wells to even reclaim from monotheistic traditions. We certainly don’t have the plethora of ancient temples dotting the landscape of Greece or the sands of Egypt.
