Happy Beaster 2024 from The Black House!

Happy Beaster!

While Christians celebrate their myth of a savior risen from the dead, Satanists note that aspects of today’s traditions stem from ancient seasonal celebrations which often include symbolism derived from the rising of dormant vegetation, and thus “rebirth” and “resurrection.” Maga Nadramia has strategically placed tulips to enhance our garden here at The Black House.

It is always delightful to […]

Daffodils in The Black House garden.

Eggscellent Day!

Today, Christians celebrate their myth of a savior risen from the dead. Some neo-pagans esteem the relatively obscure female deity, Ēostre. Satanists note that traditions for this day stem from ancient seasonal celebrations which tend to include symbolism of the Spring rising of dormant vegetation, and thus “rebirth” and “resurrection.” There is certainly much beauty in the early flowers emerging here in the Haunted Hudson Valley, witness the daffodils from our garden here at The Black House. Since we are free of any holiday obligations, we might choose to ignore this date altogether. Yet, we diabolists may also enjoy whatever […]

Ostara, Dawn Goddess, also known as Ēostre

TO EACH HIS OWN

Today, Christians celebrate their well-worn myth, lifted from earlier pagan religions, of a savior risen from the dead. Some neo-pagans will esteem the relatively obscure female deity, Ēostre. We’re often asked what Satanists might be doing while others honor the “walking dead” Nazarene or a goddess of the dawn? Since we are free of any holiday obligations, we might ignore this date altogether. However, enjoying whatever one finds pleasing from festivities associated with this time of year would also be a proper pursuit for we diabolists. While candy is often a part of this day—and these days there are some yummy […]
