Bessus is the heart of our way — the living custom that shapes how we think, act, and relate to the world. It holds our spiritual practices, our shared values, and the deep patterns that weave throughout our bessus. In this section, you’ll find a reflection of all these: our beliefs, our mores, and the vision that guides how we walk as Galatîs.
Tegobessus (House Custom)
Your home is a sacred place — and Tegobessus is how you bring the Bessus into it. This guide offers ways to begin: creating sacred space, making offerings, honoring ancestors, speaking invocations, and shaping a household rhythm rooted in devotion.
- Tricaddontoi (Three Sacred Ways)
The foundation of our Bessus, expressing the three core paths we walk: Dêuontos (Way of the Dêuoi) Anationtos (Way of Souls) and Biuontos (Way of Living) - Îanoi (Virtues)
The ethical principles we strive to embody — ways of being that root us in what is right, just, and balanced (îanos). These virtues shape our character and guide our path. The one who walks this path is called an Ambactos Rotî — an ambassador of the wheel — turning virtue into action and embodying the living heart of the Bessus. - Adaððus aidoniâs (Hearth Rite)
A sacred rite performed at the hearth — the spiritual heart of the home — connecting our lives to the fire of tradition. - Daily Rites
A core practice of the Toution. These rites honor our core Toutâdêuoi (Tribal Gods) and keep us in step with the sacred calendar. Through daily offerings, gestures, and prayers, we maintain our connection to the Dêuoi and walk in harmony with the flow of Samos and Giamos. - Iuoi etic Litoues (Holidays and Festivals)
Sacred times of celebration and reflection, where we honor key events, turnings, and causes that shape our year. - Adaððoues (Rites)
Ceremonies and sacred acts that serve spiritual, cultural, or communal purpose — from small offerings to great gatherings. - Toutâdêuoi and Toutâregentiâ (Tribal Gods and Tribal Ancestors)
The honored Dêuoi and Ancestral ones of our Toutâ — those who walk with us and guide our path.- Cintuxtoi — The First Ones
These are the First Ones — the Dêuoi who shaped the world and continue to hold it in balance. Before temples, before hearths, before even the names of tribes, there were sky, earth, sun, and moon — and these we still honor.
- Cintuxtoi — The First Ones
- Uēdiās (Prayers)
Words of devotion for every part of life: morning and evening, joy and grief, solitude and celebration. - Molātocridiū (Praise with the heart)
A gesture of heartfelt adoration inspired by ancient accounts — connecting body and spirit in reverence. - Anationtos (Soul Path “Animism”)
The sacred awareness that all beings hold spirit — and that we are part of a great, interconnected flow of life.- Biuiti (Being, Creatures, Entity)
The world is alive with spirit. Biuiti are the many beings — great and small — that dwell alongside us and the Dêuoi. Some are honored, some exchanged with, and others simply acknowledged with care. They may bless, test, guide, or be best left undisturbed. These spirits are part of the living fabric of Bitus, and our relationship with them is shaped by respect, reciprocity, and awareness. - Animals
The Senogalatis (Ancient Gauls) held deep respect for the animals around them — many were honored through ritual, art, and myth. In our Bessus, animals are seen as sacred companions, omens, teachers, and sometimes as manifestations of the divine. They walk beside us in this world, and their presence is never without meaning. - Prennoi (Trees)
To the Senogalatis, many trees were held as sacred — and they remain so in our time. Each tree carries its own gifts: for healing, for ritual, for building, for burning. They are not merely resources but wise green guides, rooted in the land and reaching toward the sky. To walk among them is to walk among the elders of the living world, and each can be honored with devotion and care.
- Biuiti (Being, Creatures, Entity)
- Sernis Bituion (Cosmology)
Our understanding of the order of the universe, of Samos and Giamos, and the flow of all things in harmony. - Bessus Nouiogalation Mythology
Our sacred stories — myths that root our identity, reveal our values, and echo the memory of the Dêuoi and ancestors. - Caddoi Senuî (Sacred Symbols)
Symbols are more than marks — they are containers of memory, meaning, and spiritual power in our tradition. - Slougoi (Orders/Groups)
These are rooted in the Bessus (Custom) and serve as paths of deeper devotion and focused practice. Each Slougos reflects a unique expression of bessus, providing structure and identity for those who feel called to specific sacred duties.
Bessus Nouiogalation Molâtus (Praise Hymn)
A hymn of praise and devotion sung or spoken in honor of the Dêuoi — expressing how we see, feel, and walk with them.
