Paganism: I would LOVE to hear others' experiences with paganism

Ok, so I feel like I'm about to summon a whole lot of people by saying this (which is what I want) because I really want to connect with some other pagans. I'm a satanist (not the kind that literally worships the Christian devil) and I also worship deities. I also worship nature as a being itself, and I would LOVE to hear others' experiences with paganism, and meet fellow pagans. 😊⛦

I love being a pagan because being a witch teaches me how to be intentional and reminds me of my relationship with the world around me: the earth, the moon, the stars, and the unseen threads that connect all of us. It’s a practice that reminds me that nothing exists in isolation, that everything is part of a greater rhythm, and that I have a role within that. For me, paganism is something that’s woven through every part of my life. It shapes my spiritual practice, but it also informs my work, my creativity, and the way I move through the world.

My advice for connecting with other pagans is to stay open and curious by following what feels resonant, trusting your intuition, and seeking out spaces, both in person and online, where you can share, learn, and grow in community. If there isn't a local metaphysical shop where you are located (there wasn't for me when I was growing up!), don't be afraid to get creative! Witches are everywhere! Try a yoga studio, look for meet-up groups. And the internet can be a wonderful resource of connection, and communities can flourish virtually as well! Paganism is vast, so follow your interests and learn as much as you can through books and classes.

Why do you call yourself a satanist if you know people are going to get confused

Because there are several kinds, and people that are pagan will know that. Sharing your specific type can help others better understand. The only people I know that immediately think that satanism means devil worship is conservative Christians that are sometimes a little more small-minded. I definitely support the idea of the devil, and his worship, as he is a sign of rebellion, free spirit, and caring for yourself. I just don't have, like, an altar to him, or do sit-down worship to him. I'm glad you have curiosity towards this subject, and I would love to hear your experience. :)

Well I believe in the Lord. And Jesus. I am just wondering why you turned to celebrate a man who is going to give you extreme pain? Just because you follow the devil doesn't mean that he will give you a free bee to not experience the pain of not flowing to God? What caused you to follow him? Will there ever be a change to your beliefs? Following the devil in my opinion is like a toxic relationship. They end up hurting you very badly and then you try and one for the one who truly loves you (God) but Jesus might have already come back. :( Follow Jesus now or the one you think you can trust will turn one you. Please answer my questions I am very curious.

I don't know how many times I need to say I don't literally worship the Christian devil. Please do your research and educate yourself.

I’m not a pagan, but I hope it’s okay to share my experience from a different perspective. I used to search for meaning and connection in a lot of places, especially wanting something spiritual and personal. What I eventually found was that a relationship with Jesus gave me the peace and purpose I had been looking for. Christianity, for me, isn’t about fear or control but about knowing a God who loves us personally and created nature and all of us with intention. I genuinely wish you well in your spiritual journey, and I just wanted to share where I found hope and truth.

I mean I've seen signs. Like once I asked for a sign that a deity was there (and it was a deity of nature) and then suddenly in the middle of the road in front of me there was a big buck deer staring at me. We had never had any deer in that area.
