It is for this reason that I have difficulty with the unqualified use of the term Wicca or Wiccan. I am sure you do not mean to imply that Witches and Witchcraft are a new thing. History traces us back to pre-Celtic times though mostly Indo_European in origin.

It is interesting how many Christians know nothing of the roots of their own religion. Please do a little research and you will discover the roots of the name, "Holy evening" coming from All Hallows Eve. Where the confusion comes from is that Christianity has taken over almost every pre-Christian holiday and given it some newer meaning. This includes Ash Wednesday and even Easter. Please do your research.

@Christ4Life316 t seems there is a lot of dissent amongst the followers of Jesus then, with more than a few trying to kill all non believers and at the very least associate non Christians with evil or sin. Wherever the confusion comes from, you all should work it our amongst yourselves first, before trying to make us believe one way of the other. Co-existing in peace would be a good first step, let us see if your Christians can do that for a while and we can talk later.

Its best to dress yourself with your desires on your birthday. Afterall, your birthday is your new year. Its kind of like dressing a so-called "Christmas" Tree. A Tree that never dies and lives on even during the coldest days... Halloween falls under Scorpio which the God of the Dead (Pluto) rules. You are right, it is a time to show those passed that they are still remembered and loved.

Ms. Cabot, I love you. Okay...I don't actually know you, so rather I should say: I love your words, and your outlook. I have been reading your books since the early 1990s. They do not get old and they remain true. It's funny you should mention costumes, as when I was a child I always dressed as something I'd like to aspire to. :) Great interpretation. Thank you so very much.

@crazypsychojenn Kind of a cute story: Every year, my mom used to ask me what I wanted to be for H'ween. One year I said, "A witch." She said, "Why? Witches are old and ugly!" Immediately I said, "I want to be a pretty witch." She laughed and said, "There's no such thing." Mind you, this was in the very early 1970s. It was considered VERY WEIRD to think things like that. But I just knew in my heart that there *were* pretty witches. Ms. Cabot proves it. :)

Very nice. I believe our gods and goddesses are humanity's ancestors, indeed. I paint my face white with black around my eyes and then dress in what I feel expresses the spirits of my ancestors for that year. I honor my deads and welcome them with a dumb supper also. May this Samhaintide cleanse away the old and usher in the new! Blessed Be!

I always have loved Halloween is a great holiday. I don't think there is any harm in a person dressing as a devil or whatever character, its just a costume, the thing that matters the most is the kind of person they are, that determines if they are good or bad. Halloween for me is a time to have fun, I will be dressing as my favorite Disney character Maleficent, the dark fairy from Sleeping Beauty, ( I am not an evil person, I just like her costume. :)

This is interesting to see another view of the holiday. Halloween for me is just a fun time to dress up and have fun in town. It's nothing religious for me. For kids it's also a fun time for hay rides and sweet treats.

As a fellow pagan and a former Christian, Ms. Cabot is correct when she said that Halloween is a Christian holiday. It is not commonly known as Halloween, but as All Saints Eve. Your point is invalid. As for druidism being the oldest religion I think you need to go back and read some more history. The oldest and wisest person in the village was referred to as a wicca or the wise one. This lady is a very important woman and should be respected, not made fun of. Thank you Ms Cabot. Blessed Be )0(

There is a Witches Ball coming around in Arizona in Oct.21. If I were to dress as the Green Man, would you find that offensive? I am a Druid and or Celtic Pagan, but I do support other groups like the witches.

The original Greek word daimon (Demon) does not carry the negative connotation. They were spirits. Christians made anything pagan ( Non Abrahamic beliefs) evil.

Why do people think today's Halloween is a Christian holiday. It has nothing to do with us. It was just society itself that made this one happen. Thanks for the video though. A way to make me think more carefully when it comes to costumes. Though I don't believe in that part so much. I just dress up because it's fun.

@Christ4Life316 I agree with mostly everything you've said but "Salvation is found only in Jesus by faith ALONE; simply believe that he shed his blood for you to pay for your sins; repent and receive him into your heart as your personal Saviour." It's not your place to tell people to repent. Your not Christ.

I think what upsets me most about this woman, is the face that she makes it sound like there is only one way of doing things, that "all witches" do things one way or the other and that if you don't do things like she does, then your not a witch. Please inform me if I'm wrong, its just what I think, but when I say inform me, you need to show me where she states otherwise. I also feel like she is in it for the money after watching her video on her shop, some of the things she sales I have found for not even half of what she is asking for.

The reason why terms are so important is so one understands what one is discussing. Witchcraft is a very specific term and even there you have great variety, nevertheless each tradition has a holistic practice designed to bring about empowerment and support for those like minded people. Witchcraft is a science as well as an art and religion, The science is easily demonstrable. We have simply found a way that works, you have no need to follow, I try to act like a coach to better my students nothing more, and a structure helps that process. As far as my products are concerned, there is very little markup, real essential oils cost a fortune, they are organic often imported from Europe or Asia and processed in the correct ways. The glass we use is cleansed, the labels are hand made, there is always cheaper, only the user can say if there is better.
