Hang around your local church long enough and eventually you'll hear the pastor refer to some free thinking non-conformist as a pagan in one of his fire and brimstone rants. So just what is a pagan and what are pagan love spells. Also, how alike are Pagans and Wiccans in general.

The truth is that they are (one in the same). There is “no separation” between Pagans and Wiccans, other then the choice of words themselves that are used. The word Pagan simply has an older heritage that reaches far back to ancient Rome.

Pagan is a Latin word that simply translates into “country person”. It came to be connected to the belief system that it is by the Romans who lived in the provinces outside cities in those earlier times. More urban Romans were more inclined to be Christians, as that new religion was introduced as a means of controlling the masses.

Pagan Love Spells are the Same as Wiccan Spells

The hill people who lived away from the cities, tended to adhere to their traditional and far more ancient beliefs, were looked down upon by social climbing city folk of the time period. Romans who tended to embrace Christianity as a means of achieving peer acceptance as well as wielding power and social influence.

Sound familiar? It should because pagans were the hill-billys of their day who also raised goats and thus the “goat connection” that's still often made to this very day. They just weren't anyone to be envied if you were an ancient Roman on his or her way up in society.

The Wiccan Pagan love spells connection was made some 2000 years ago when the Romans decided to invade what is now Britain and encountered the ancestors of the ancient Druids. Mountain folk who raised goats and also had their own set of beliefs that were anything but Christian.

So the word Pagan was a convenient one size fits all deal as far as the Romans were concerned. Once again more savvy ancient local British inhabitants accepted Christianity and went along with the game, while the goat herding “Pagan” country folk who eventually ran the Romans off were looked upon as social misfits and undesirables.
