October 4, 2026 — Pagan Founder Oberon Zell

Gene and Geneva feature Oberon Zell, founder of the Church of All Worlds and a key figure in the modern pagan movement, in a wide-ranging discussion with Geneva and The. Oberon recounted how he transitioned from Tim to Otter and then to Oberon, and described his work with unicorns, the Eleusinian Mysteries, and the origins and growth of paganism as an identity. called “The Father of Modern Paganism,” in 1967 was the first to claim the identity of “Pagan,” incorporating the Church of All Worlds in 1968 and publishing Green Egg magazine for 57 years. An initiate in several different magickal Traditions, Oberon was instrumental in the coalescence of the Neo-Pagan movement, co-founding the earliest alliances. In 1970, he had a profound Vision of the Living Earth which he published as the earliest version of “The Gaea Thesis” — that our entire planetary biosphere comprises the body of a single vast super-organism universally identified as “Mother Earth.” Oberon has traveled throughout the world, conferred with indigenous shamans, celebrated solar eclipses at ancient stone circles, raised living Unicorns, and swam with Mermaids in the Coral Sea. He also designs jewelry, T-shirts, and altar figurines of Gods and Goddesses. His signature sculpture is Mother Earth as “The Millennial Gaia.” His website: https://oberonzell.com
