THE OPHIDIAN SYNODUS
The sacred tradition of the Serpent.
A contemporary monotheistic tradition dedicated to the study, preservation, and transmission of the Ophidian heritage.
THE OPHIDIAN TRADITION
Ophidism is a contemporary monotheistic tradition centred on the symbolism of the Serpent.
Founded upon historical sources, comparative theology and philosophical inquiry, Ophidism seeks to articulate a coherent spiritual path for the modern world.
Our tradition brings together doctrine, liturgy and ethics within a unique and unified religious framework, affirming that genuine transformation begins through knowledge, a disciplined practice and a deep and true research of the Divine.
Liturgy
The liturgical year gives rhythm to the life of the Synodus through daily, weekly and seasonal celebrations, individual practices and communal worship.
The public liturgical calendar provides a space for people to join our celebrations and practices, reflecting the spiritual rhythm that unites all Ophidians throughout the year.
The Synodus
The Ophidian Synodus is an independent monotheistic religious institution devoted to preserving and transmitting the sacred tradition of Ophidism.
Through scholarship, liturgy and community life, it seeks to cultivate a living and modern religious tradition suited for the XXI century.
The Synodus aims at providing an institutional home for those who wish to study, practice and contribute to the continued development of the Ophidian tradition.
PUBLICATIONS
Research, papers, essays, and official publications constitute an essential part of the intellectual life of the Synodus. They present theological, philosophical and historical foundations of the Ophidian tradition while contributing to broader conversation in the study of religion.
THE DIDASKÀLIA
The Ophidian Synodus offers a complete free education to its members. From the courses in Latin Grammar and Philosophy to the practice and apprenticeship in Ophidian Liturgy and Doctrine, our members are educated to become active and independent voices in the contemporary religious framework.
The Ophidian Didaskàlia is structured as a full educational process, involving academic inquiry, philosophical reasoning and spiritual research, forming a holistic and modern view of a religious life.
The Synodus regularly publishes recorded lectures and educational addresses exploring theology, philosophy, symbolism and the living tradition of Ophidism.
