Pagans are not Satanists. Witches are pagans. The word witch means wise one and they are not evil or scary, as society teaches us. Pagans live in harmony with nature and worship its seasons and all of its parts.

I am a Pagan. I am a witch. I am not a Satanist. In fact, my religion does not even believe in the existence of Satan.

I respect others’ choices of religions and spiritual paths. With this respect I do not profess to know anything about the beliefs and practices of other religions. I wish others would pay me, and the many other peaceful, open-minded Pagans in this community the same respect. I wish those who do not understand or practice Pagan beliefs would not give out false information that encourages the negative connotations Pagans have today. To fully understand the true meaning of Samhain there is more to know than why children wear costumes. I invite anyone who is interested to ask me. I’d be happy to tell you a story or two. Happy Samhain!
