I am officially a member of a Metaphysical church, not sure if that's Pagan. I have been very curious about Wicca and have practiced witchcraft. The whole pagan=satanism thing is so ignorant.

This is really fascinating. I have always loved the aesthetic of witches, as I love listening to metal and used to be into the gothic aesthetic, which sometimes overlaps with the Wicca one. I also...

I do think we're pagans. Pagan is such a broad umbrella term for many old and new age paths that attempt to reconstruct old ways of life. Yay for us pagans! As far as light reading goes, I'd suggest...
