The Horned One

Lawls at crappy background.

So. I wanted to draw something
eastery' but not something filled with pink bunnies and bright colored eggs. So I drew the Pagan god , the Horned One :D since he's connected with the Spring Equinox.
As I'm hoping most of you know, Easter was a Pagan holiday before Christianity took over and made the religion 'evil'. The horned one is actually what early Christians called the devil, hence why today's devil has horns.
But he ain't evil at all, he's the creator of all living things in nature and his horns represent male fertility ;D

I love old religions, they're so much fun to learn about. I think next I'll draw Odin XD He kicks so much ass.

I officially love you for this, haha <3

Almost no one I've talked to knows that Easter was originally a Pagan holiday, except for the Pagans that I know x.x And then they argue with me about it when I try to explain that to them >.>

I'm glad someone realizes my religion isn't actually evil~
