deity

Traditionally, Wiccans worship pagan deities and celebrate seasonally based festivals or “Sabbats.”

Indeed deities were in all countries considered quite above the moral obligations of men.

He believed in demons, spirits, and dragons, and in nearly every house were idols in honour of the imaginary deities.

But more characteristic than the erection of altars is the connection of deities with special localities.

Organisation ensues, and the general conceptions of state-deities and state-ritual are made more definite and precise.

Religion follows the new ideas, and in two of the older deities of the fields develops the notions of justice and war.
