Some Basic Definitions

Because Pagan and Wiccan spiritual traditions are unfamiliar to many people or misunderstood, I’m going to post here some basic definitions of some of the terms we use.

‘Pagan’ comes from a Latin root that means ‘land’ or ‘countryside’ and it referred to the people who held on to the local, earth-based teachings and traditions the longest, even after book-based religions came in.

Modern-day Pagans embrace the word proudly, and generally use it to mean those who follow earth-based nature traditions with roots in Europe and the Middle East—although other indigenous traditions can certainly be called Pagan as well.

Some people use NeoPagan to distinguish contemporary practitioners. For Pagans, the sacred is immanent, embodied in the natural world that we humans are part of, and expressed through the cycles of birth, growth, death and regeneration around us.

‘Wicca’ or ‘Witchcraft’ or ‘The Craft’ is one branch of contemporary Paganism. “Wic’ comes from an Anglo-Saxon root meaning ‘to bend or twist’, and Witches were the shamans, medicine people, healers, and diviners who could bend or twist your fate.

In ancient and medieval Europe, they functioned much like curanderas do in contemporary Latin America—holding parts of ancient teachings and knowledge and curing traditions sometimes mixed with overlays of Christianity.

The Witch persecutions conducted by both the Catholics and Protestants in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries have left a legacy of fear and misunderstanding about the word ‘Witch’—associating it with negative magic and devil worship. But Witches see Satan or the devil as a construct of Christian theology that has no place in our religion. We worship the Goddess under many names and aspects, including male Gods. Our Horned God—stag, goat or bull—is the personification of the life force energy in animals and the wild.
For Witches, nature is our sacred text and we practice our religion through ritual and ceremony, traditionally in small groups but today often in larger gatherings as well. Drums, dance, meditation, poetry, art, music, trance, storytelling, and focused energy characterize our rituals. Men as well as women can be Witches, and are called ‘Witches’.

‘Polytheism’ means the belief in many different names and approaches to the sacred. While most of us believe in a deep, spiritual unity at the heart of existence, we also believe in the value of many different names, faces, symbols, and paths to that heart. No one has a monopoly on truth, in our teachings, and every religion and spiritual tradition holds a perspective that has value and is uniquely suited to some individuals’ needs.

The Goddess is the great, creative life force, the living being whose body is the universe, the cycles of birth, growth, death and regeneration that animate all things. She is the oneness that underlies all, but different facets of her story and her power are revealed to us in the form of particular Goddesses and Gods from many different times and cultures. Each is like a gateway that leads us to a particular path of development and growth.

‘Magic’ was defined by occultist Dion Fortune as “the art of changing consciousness at will.” Magic is the ancient psychology of identifying and opening to the wide spectrum of states of awareness that we as humans are capable of. Some of these states allow us to listen more deeply to the communications of other beings around us—from the plants and animals in the natural world to spiritual forces. Some states allow us to affect change, but we are bound by strong ethical constraints when we work in those modes. “What you send out magically returns on you three times over,” we say—a kind of amplified Golden Rule.

‘Women’s spirituality’ or ‘feminist spirituality’ movements arose in the seventies and eighties as women challenged the male bias of many mainstream religions and began looking for alternatives. Many of the women in these movements identify as Pagans or Witches, but others do not want to be labeled and still others remain as strong voices within Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Buddhism, Hinduism and other traditions.

‘Reclaiming’ is both the name of the particular Pagan tradition I practice and the extended network of people I work with. We arose in the early eighties from a small group of people in the Bay Area who wanted to link our spiritual practice with our social justice activism. We now have Reclaiming identified groups all over the U.S., Canada, Europe, and Australia. See www.reclaiming.org for a listing of groups and projects.

I desperately hope that this comment, or question rather, makes it's way to you. While you hold Witchcraft as your chosen religion or spiritual practice, I am curious if you suggest it as a direct alternative to Christianity or simply, one of many? Please respond...I am most curious.

Lyryal, what you say isn't actually correct:

" ...you and I might stand side by side, experience the same moments from within inches of one another, and have utterly different perceptions."

Not utterly different. Or at any rate, not unless at least one of you is asleep, psychotic, intoxicated, etc.. Of course all our experiences are private to us, but there is overwhelming evidence that by and large, assuming fairly normal circumstances, we all do see and experience the world in more or less the same way. If we didn't, we wouldn't be able to communicate or work together; and when, sometimes, someone really does perceive the world seriously differently, we treat them as being ill, and seek to cure them.

Its easy to get carried away by subjectivity and forget that we are in fact all built more or less the same way and see, hear, feel and generally live in more or less the same ecological niche. But this isn't a problem, its something to celebrate: this is why we can read poetry that others write, and feel empathy for one another and respect one another's opinions and views, and even, probably, why we can love one another.

Thank you to Starhawk for the excellent article, and thank you to everyone else for the discussion.

I can only speak for myself, but in response to Ted's questions, I've found that many of my agnostic and atheist friends find it helpful to think of Pagan beliefs, rituals, and deities from a psychological perspective. The myths that we're drawing on in our spiritual practices articulate very powerful and transformative spiritual archetypes. These archetypes have their roots in our cultural memory, and perhaps at times in our genetic structure. By telling these tales, and by seeing ourselves as active participants in these tales, we are "reclaiming" important portions of our personal power and consciousness that have been lost or repressed by generations of cultural conditioning.

Of course, I personally believe that our deities are more than impersonal archetypes! I have a personal relationship with them, and they arguably have a personal relationship with me. According to my beliefs in the fields of physics and metaphysics, these beings simply hold their energy in forms that contemporary Western science doesn't fully understand yet -- in the soil, in the trees, in the water, in the mountains, and in the spiritual world that lies somewhere beyond/beneath them. But for the atheists and agnostics who have different beliefs about physics than I do, these beliefs and practices can still be understood quite well as deeply personal methods of exploring personal empowerment and our connection with the living Earth.

Thanks again to everyone for the dialog... I'll try to remember to check back here again soon.

It's not so much a matter of "secret wisdoms" of Witches and Pagans as it is a fundamentally different view of where faith comes from: religions of the book find truth in scripture. The monotheisms that most influence our culture tend to be religions of the book.

Pagan traditions are profoundly more experiential. There are core traditions, but even those (when we're true to our best principles and not clinging to our own dogmas) are open to being tested, changed, altered and adapted. It's not the kind of testing that would stand up to scientific scrutiny, to be sure, but it comes down to this: subjectivity is good. My subjective experiences inform my faith tradition and my entire view of the world. I choose to trust them, knowing full well that they'll change as I change. I don't trust them blindly, and I'm (hopefully) open to change when it comes.

But I'm a pagan nonetheless, with all that that implies: a fundamental belief that the earth and its cycles are sacred, that the material world isn't the whole picture of things, magic works, etc. etc. etc.

To Lyryal:
Pleasant comment Lyral. We do all have both an inner life as well as an outer life. And out inner lives are even more important than our outer lives. The world inside is is a world in which we make decisions, take actions and face or run away from the truth. YES. The vocabulary about our inner world is sadly lacking and building it up has been badly hampered by unhelpful and divisive religious dogmas.

My perspective re: Ted's questions about houses of cards & constructs:
I will agree that any belief system that can't take questioning, growth, and change, which clings to a particular structure for its own sake, is a house of cards. I don't see a particular "secret wisdom hidden in the specutlations of witches and other pagans". I do recognize when we finally begin to listen to the synchronous harmonies (Tao/Grok/Gnossis) from without and within that it is truly Magick. What you consider imaginary constructs... perhaps we simply do not have the right words or means of communicating our experiences.
For all that English is an incredibly versatile language, sometimes words "are not". Some things are, simply, experiential.
Interestingly, you and I might stand side by side, experience the same moments from within inches of one another, and have utterly different perceptions. And that's OK. It's the nature of life and living.
Thanks to all who have posted. I've appreciated reading the thoughts posted here.

As a Reclaiming Witch, I only speak for myself, but I have a personal understanding of how this magick works for me. I believe humans have reserves of untapped potential. If our self-image is too narrow to accept ourselves as powerful beings, we defeat our own potential. So much of magick is simply persuading ourselves to have the confidence to actually use our inherent power.

This is just the insight that I've gotten from working with it to meet my own needs, and I bet other Witches would express different facets of it as they experience them. Many of us Witches like to play with aesthetics, art, music, dance, storytelling, theater, crafting, trancework, and weave these in when raising the magick-- if that helps to answer the question of why do magick; it's because we bring these talents and our religion encourages us to use them freely.

I like Starhawk's explanation of Younger Self--a side of ourselves who isn't much impressed by dry arguments but is engaged by play and myth. Working with this side of ourselves, which is usually ignored in the culture we were raised in, allows us access to a lot of our undeveloped potential.

Let me start by saying that I greatly admire Starhawk and I am glad that this forum has had the wisdom to ask practitioners of non main stream religions to participate in it. As someone that has followed a Pagan spiritual path for over 20 years I have experienced first hand animosity and enmity from those that feel that my religion is "of the devil" to borrow from someone that once criticized my religious proclivities. I look forward to the possibilities for greater understanding of all faiths that this forum has potential to foster.

Blessed Be

In response to Ted's comment, my boyfriend is also agnostic and I am Pagan. We have some excellent debates on the 'imaginary constructs' you talk about. Basically Pagans believe in the 'supernatural' which is basically what most people refer to when attempting to explain that which has no scienfic term per se. Although we come closer and closer to defining these things they still remain a mystery to most. Somehow over the years we lost touch with some of humanity's innate knowledge. The human brain has capacities which far surpass our current understanding so in a way these 'secret wisdoms' are not so secret or imaginary even if they are perhaps unprovable. Hope that helps a little!

All I can say, as an agnostic, is that I find your Wiccan/Pagan ideas more attractive than the dogmas of the major religions. But I also find myself wondering where the addiction to your own house of cards comes from. Why is it that you feel there is some secret wisdom hidden in the specutlations of witches and other pagans? What is it that is supposed to be the source of this wisdom.
Feeling a kinship with nature I can understand -- since we humans are an integral part of nature when we allow ourselves to be such. But I find the imginary constructs that pagan build around this notion as ideas plucked out of thin air.
