I haven't even gotten past the first paragraph but wanted to immediately go comment to say THANK YOU for bringing up Rhys and Frazer!! Their flawed research and theories have been so influential in modern thought that their ideas are now just accepted as canon, which is just so misleading.
The more I read the more I realised that things did not add up. That was when I started questioning. I have nothing against folk following a modern spiritual path. The issue lies with people in the pagan community who repeat these untruths as historical fact!
That's fantastic to hear and thank you too. I will be sharing two more articles for Hallowtide, one including traditional crafts so please keep a lookout for those!
