"Let me begin by clarifying that we are not devil worshippers. It's a huge misconception. In fact, we worship Mother Nature, and our only motto is: 'Do as you will, but harm none,'" says Angel Serrao, a Wiccan High Priest and proprietor of The Wiccan Shop in Mahim. Tonight, the temple attached to the shop will be the venue for a Halloween abundance ritual that will be attended by practising Wiccans from across the city. Wicca is a neo-pagan religion that was born in England in the 20th century. "The founder of the religion took elements of several of the world's religions and incorporated them in witchcraft," explains Serrao. Today, the religion has followers across the world, most notably in the UK and US.
