[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As we have a few pagans on this thread, and it’s settled that Halloween isn’t actually a Christian holiday, I wonder if someone could explain the role of the goat in pagan/Wicca belief? [/quote] In addition to the Wiccan goat, could somebody explain the ceremonial use of eggs and rabbits?[/quote] Sure! Easter comes from the Saxon word Eostre. We celebrate the spring equinox. It is celebrated the Sunday following the first full moon after the spring equinox. Very much pagan. The feast celebrates the end of the darkness and fertility. Bunnies and eggs represent new life and fertility. I guess the Christians kinda liked that part. The goat associated with Wicca is a way of honoring horned deities, of which there are many. All witches are not Wiccan. Most witches aren’t using goats in their practice. [/quote]
