Hail and Merry Meet! We will wish you a “Happy Irish Day” here, but St. Patrick will not be uttered. We are proud Irish and we will gladly wish you all the blessings and happiest the day could hold for you. Since the Ladies are Witches and I am a Druid, we have no use for St. Patrick. The folklore has it, he ran out all the snakes in Ireland. The snakes that were referred to by St. Patrick and his Christian followers were the Druids. The Druids were almost completely wiped out. We had to do the same as the Witches in America, go underground for our religion and our practices just to survive. Most people outside the Pagan community do not know the story of St. Patrick and his snakes. They cannot understand why Druids and Witches do not wish others a “Happy St. Patrick’s Day.” He did nothing for us except to try to wipe us off the face of this planet.
Let us celebrate our Irish heritage today instead of a near extinction of an entire religion. On March 17th, everyone is Irish!
Happy Irish Heritage Day to You, Lads & Lassies of the WOTC!
