Description
Paganism is a magical religion, though views vary on the belief in and use of magic. It is mainly a Christian idea to view magic and religion as oppositional in distinguishing between “true” and “false” religion. The pagan turn toward “magic” is part of a re-enchantment of the world. It is not only about casting spells but is a view of reality and is found in the creation of life.
