| When one defines oneself as a pagan, it means he or she follows an earth or nature religion, one that sees the devine manafest in all creation. The cycles of nature are our holy days, the earth is our temple, it's plants and creatures our partners and teachers. We worship a deity which is both male and female, a mother goddess and a father god, who together created all that is, was or will be. We respect life, cherish the free will of sentient beings, and accept the sacridness of all creation. ~Edain McCoy |

| Today the term Wicca refers to a religion that many (but not all) witches practise (this also works vice-vera as not all Wiccans are witches). Wicca is an earth based religion that honors both the God and Goddess. The word witch comes from the Old English word "wicce" which means "female witch" and wicca meaning "wizard". A witch is someone who uses magick in his or her every day life. The English word Paganis defined as a person who "observes a polytheistic religion"- a religion that has many gods. It is also defined as a person who has no religion. It used to mean anyone who was not Christian. This word comes from the Latin word that means "civilian", which in turn comes from the Latin word paganus, meaning "country dweller". So the word pagan shouldn't carry any negative connection at all. |
