Do Pagans Celebrate Christmas?
Do you have a friend or family member that is Pagan? Do you wonder if you should get him or her a gift for Christmas? Do pagans celebrate Christmas?
The answer is no, but we do celebrate Yule, or the Winter Solstice, which occurs a few days before Christmas. So giving a gift would be very appropriate and probably much appreciated. Here are some suggestions for gifts that might interest pagans and witches.

Contents at a Glance
Winter Solstice Feather Witch Ball
I am fascinated with witch balls and your pagan friend will be too. Legends say that witch balls, which are hollow, colored glass orbs, were hung in the window for protection against evil spells and negativity.
Kitras Art Glass Winter Solstice Feather Witch Ball - 6"
Amazon Price: $32.95 (as of 02/23/2012)![]()
Measures 6" in diamter.
Blown glass loop for hanging.
Lovely gift tag and gift boxed.
Divination Decks

The Well Worn Path and Hidden Path decks are our favorite divination cards. Written by Wiccan authors Raven Grimassi and Stephanie Taylor, and pagan artist Mickie Mueller, they are designed specifically for pagans and witches. Although each deck stands alone, we have found combining the two decks to be more insightful. An excellent gift choice for readers of tarot.
The third deck is Mickie Mueller's own divination oracle "Voice of the Trees."
Sample card is called MidWinter and is from the Hidden Path deck. Used with permission.
Pagans Love Jewelry
Most pagans I know love jewelry and stones. We enjoy the metaphysical properties of the stones themselves, plus they are pretty to look at. It is ironic that my parents had a rock shop when I was growing up and I hated rocks. Ah, if I only knew then what I know now.
This beautiful gold tiger eye pendant would make a wonderful gift. Tiger Eye is a stone of protection that is also very grounding. It enhances integrity, willpower, practicality and correct use of power. It is a stone that enhances good luck, and brings prosperity, often in the form of money.

Here There Be Dragons
Great for Men
Color Changing Dragon Figurine
Amazon Price: (as of 02/23/2012)![]()
Pagans are very attracted to mythical beings and creatures. Men in particular seem to love dragons. Here is a stunning dragon gazing into a glowing crystal ball. The coloring changing LED lights adds to the mystical allure. Combine LEDs with dragons and you have a winner!
Faries, Fairies, Everywhere
Gold Sheen Obsidian Sphere - Palantir
I confess that I have a thing for orbs and spheres made out of gemstones. I have one made out of gold sheen obsidian that looks like the palantir in the Lord of the Rings.
Mexican Gold Sheen Obsidian 3.5" Sphere with Cherry Wood Stand
Amazon Price: (as of 02/23/2012)![]()
Sphere is 3.5" diameter
Gold sheen obsidian from Guadalajara Mexico.

Give a Green Gift
Paganism is an earth-centered religion, so many pagans are very interested in "Going Green." They might not even put up a traditional tree but prefer decorate the trees outside with berries and treats for the birds. Here is a very unique. eco-friendly gift. TreeGivers will plant a young tree in any State or Province of your choice.
Calendars Make Great Gifts
Here It Is - the Wow Present
I don't know anyone who doesn't want a Kindle Fire. Most pagans I know are book-aholics. We love to read. I recently gave away almost all of my hard copy books that we had collected over many years. Amazingly, it was not hard to do that, for I had just bought a Kindle. Since we now live in an RV it is perfect for storing our ever growing library.
The Kindle Fire is that and so much more. You can watch movies, play music, play games, and read magazines and books. If you can't afford the Fire, one of the lower priced Kindles are wonderful as well. I am very happy with mine and just love shopping for books on-line.
Kindle Fire, Full Color 7" Multi-touch Display, Wi-Fi
Amazon Price: $199.00 (as of 02/23/2012)![]()
Most frequent words used to describe the Kindle Fire - Awesome and Amazing.
Still Stuck for Ideas?
When my husband and I decided to live full time in an RV, we gave away most of our possession. My children asked, "Now what can we give you for gifts?" Since I have a Kindle, the answer was simple.
I would love to get Amazon Gift Cards. That way I can pick which books I want to read and no one has to worry that I have read it already. Easy to buy and greatly appreciated, even if the person you are buying it for does not have a Kindle (if not then see the suggestion above).

Did You Find What You Were Looking For?
I hope you enjoyed our little shopping expedition. We even avoided the big crowds at the mall.
Did you find anything you think your pagan friend would like? Oh, you found something you wanted, eh? Well that's okay too. Feel free to leave a comment and tell us what you liked best.

- Great gift selection for Pagans, or anyone, for that matter! I believe giving is the spirit of the season, so it follows I believe it a loving thing to give gifts to everyone.

- Love this topic and am impressed by the diversity of great gift items you've collected here. The Tiger Eye pendant is my favorite item here; I have long been fascinated by that particular stone, and the one pictured is very lovely.
