Hello

Hello everyone,
I am very happy I found this site and look forward to interesting discussions in the forums. My name is Steven and I am an independent spiritual satanist. I am very interested in the natural and earthly aspects of satanism. I experience Satan as a force of nature, intellectualism, enlightenment and love thinking about and meditating on the image of Satan as god of this world and in the forms of Baphomet, Lucifer and Pan. Well that is just a short description about myself, but I guess it will do for an introduction.

Welcome to the forums. I'm sure that you'll find many things of interest here.

I am curious though, I've never heard of a relation between Satan and Pan(outside of the satyr's goat image that is). The common perception of these two name/images are disproportionate to name/images which are more readily identified as the same entity in other cultures.

Welcome to the forums I am also an independent spiritual satanist.

Thank you Sarune and GhostJGhost.

@GhostJGhost: The way I see the archetype of Satan represents god of the earth, independent thought, and natural human behaviors. Pan is the god of nature, so I relate to nature and the earth as Satan and/or Pan. Lucifer is the archetype for enlightenment and intellectualism which I am also very fond of.

I see, thanks for clearing that up.

No problem.
