Who do you consider your Matron Goddess/Patron God?
My Matron is the Morrighan, and has been through all my current pagan incarnations (that is, through my wiccan phase, my ecclectic and now in my Druidic phase). She appears to me in a way that a lot of others don't see. They see her as Carrion Queen, a fierce and merciless warrioress, whereas I have also seen her as a beautiful, protective Mother, a quiet, often reflective Sister, and always, a very attentive Friend.

Raevyn1972, I read your post and my head spun. Seriously, this is almost exactly what I would say about the same Goddess. I dreamed of her when I was only four years old, before my great-grandmother told me her name, and in my dreams I called her "Mother" which was something I didn't call my human mother. So I see her in a very different light than many others do, and you're the first other person I've heard say it.

I dont call any gods at the moment, im still establishing things but ive always (seen I was about 11) had an affinity with Morrighan, I could never place my finger on why that was but I don't see her as just a warrior but multi-faceted and representative of much more than that. So, I think if I were to start calling, she would be my matron.

I call the Goddess Azna and God Om. I view them as the ultimate Godhead. I don't exactly know how to put they way I see them into words other than that.

I don't really have any patron/matron gods. I'm really interested in Kuan Yin. She really appeals to me, but whether or not she's my Matron is another story really. God wise, I'm really not too attached to Gods nor the male aspect of deity period. I guess I practice a more feminist side of Wicca.

right now, I don't call on any gods. I am so new to all this, however, I have seen Anubis, and as of now I consider him my patron god. One time I was a security guard in some remote area,when I was doing my rounds I saw a coyote. I know Anubis is a Jackal, but is closely related to coyotes. Everywhere I go I would see coyotes, to make things more strange they are not very common in my region.
