Holidays:
Jan. 22nd: Roe v. Wade Remembrance Observance
Feb. 15th: Lupercalia
Based on the Roman festival of the same name, Lupercalia falls on February 15. In keeping with the ancient tradition, February 13th and 14th are observed as feast days leading up to the actual holiday. What we are translating this to in TST is a "hail yourself" day. This idea offers a parallel to the "others-centered" traditions of Sol Invictus.
April 30th: Hexennacht
In Johann Wolfgang von Goethe's Faust: a Tragedy (1808), Mephisto and Faust attend the Walpurgisnacht revelry atop Mount Brocken. TST's Hexenacht is a solemn holiday to honor those who were victimized by superstition.
June 6th: Devil's Night Observance
666
July 25th: Unveiling Day
A centerpiece of our religious movement and icon of modern Satanism, the Baphomet with Children statue was commissioned by The Satanic Temple in 2014 and created by Mark Porter with "respect for diversity and religious minorities" in mind. On July 25, 2015, The Satanic Temple unveiled Baphomet to a large crowd of devotees in Detroit, signaling the beginning of the new Satanic era. We observe this milestone in Satanic history by celebrating Unveiling Day.
Sept. 30th: Blasphemy Day Observance
Oct. 31st: Halloween
Halloween is consistently described as evil, demonic, and satanic by those steeped in religious dogma. Costumes, candy, and facing fears are to be embraced.
Dec. 25th: Sol Invictus
The cult of Sol existed within Rome since its early days as a republic, and Invictus was an epithet used for Jupiter, Mars, and Apollo (among others). The festival celebrated these gods and may have also been used to celebrate the winter solstice, though this is debatable.

What are your thoughts on it? I think it's a great <!reinterpretation of the Lilith myth!> Highly recommended, try to watch it without spoilers.
Hi can anyone tell me what thia sigil is? Im seeing online its Lilith or Baphomet.
Hello! I've joined the temple finally after a couple of years of contemplating and i truly want to know more and commit to it completely! How can I and what should i learn or read to grow?
Already reported, here is the account: https://bsky.app/profile/ambersaid.bsky.social
Help get this person banned!
Hello all! First time speaking, long-time lurking, and standing member with the TST. Glad to meet you!
I'm located in the remote 49th state, and have been intrepid in my sobriety, on my 2nd serious attempt as of 12/24/24. Been to church. more years than I have toes and fingers, and the greatest thing I took from it was: "Be a good human, to other humans..." Golden Rule it. Took that with me. Then I left.
My preface to this conversation is: I involve myself with the XA (all anon) community, in my area, as heavily as I can. And I want to start having a group that is disconnected from the idea of God. Music therapy is one of my first ideas for it. [metal church?]
Farfetched? In backwoods America? I know... but I believe, wholeheartedly; in efforts of service work, and just generally volunteering my time anywhere I can [food bank, home healthcare, taxi service, etc.]. I strive to do that, daily, and can help others discover that for themselves.
BUTTTTTTT: I'd like to start something that doesn't fit a "norm" to evangelical-based, 12x12 studies. And I have people who have expressed interest, yet it's been hard to find a simple structure, in such a religious sphere. I show significance that I am a secular-humanist and express the tenets, to those who ask.. But to most who are astute Christians that I tend to have a tête-à-tête with: there's not a lot of budge. Understandable.
I find that a lot of my community's meetings, lack the want to accept/talk on, adversities that we face; especially beginning to embrace the change of sobriety, in a secular manner. Because: Holy Shit. There's a ton of us who aren't just "ready to turn their life over to God.." And I'd like to help people, in their journey, to give themself the time to realize that that is OK. I'm a very small army, at this point...
As my beliefs belie, I refuse the switchback to the modus operandi of Christian-based readings, on the subject, but I still keep common ground with that company. I see too many of us; walking off, relapsing, and carelessly walking into oblivion, to think that we can have different ideas about how to find serenity in our calamity, but never finding a "higher power" to do so with.
In short: I'm wanting to start a group of like-minded individuals to see that sobriety can exist with whatever you want to believe. Being a lonely island in such a massive landscape is unnerving. And I'm looking for ideas to help that.
I'm looking for ideas of how to approach it, and how to reach out, without offense. I've probably expressed more than I needed to, but I AM looking for that approach and reach, myself. Please let me know if I've asked anything, without purport, and what I can possibly do to help me start. Thank you for any and all input. I appreciate it.
Hail to you. Ave Satanas.

Spread the word, let’s stand for civil rights for all! There are also personalized posters and templates on the 50501 sub
We have all seen the news in the us and it's grim. What can we (not just monetarily) do to help?
I've seen plenty of people bouncing ideas but I want to ask those effected what they feel they need as support.
Sometimes things line up perfectly.
I need advice because as far as a know, they can't do this if they are publicly funded. They allow other religion and practices as far as I know of. But not satanism, maybe becuase it's frowned upon.
Us is going to hell the rules are changing everything is going back Trump new rules is everything satanists were trying to fix And satanic temple did a lot of things but they can't Peacefully Sue the f president and expect to win will the temple be silence or will it go back to the old protest ways what is gonna happen i would like to hear about you guys opinions
Especially for the recent events i think satanists need to stand together and take is seriously Now they kik off different groups Next year they will tern to satanists
It wouldn't be just for suicide but be a place were anyone can come and talk about their struggles when they need a place to go. I don't want it to be a replacement for therapy but be a faceless place for those in need. Any thoughts?
I live in the Texas Panhandle and I need to find. Out of there is a local temple we can refer people to if they ask or need to reach one.
I'm with our local trans group and we're getting any resources we can, specially spiritual for our members.
Edit: Just to be clear, this is about using government taxpayer dollars to fund religious schools. I see this as an opportunity for us.
Every month my work puts a new “poll” on the white board. This is this month’s!
I need to find some support and I don’t know how to go about it because as far as I can tell the socal satanic temple branch is split and essentially doesn’t exist?? I want to get out there and fight for Medicare, snap, abortion and immigration. I mean I’m disabled. I’m a woman. I depend on Medicare for my very necessary medications and because I’m on disability and they want you to be below the poverty line for the privilege of being disabled in this country I depend on snap benefits too. Thank Satan I got a tubal ligation but I can still feel the fear in the air like poison. I live in riverside ca. if anyone has any ideas about a group in socal that would be a place to gather, support each other and fight please let me know. Hail Satan!
I live in the Bible Belt I am moving to Colorado. I have found out that the representatives there are republican and anti abortion among other things due to their religious beliefs. Personally I am pagan, but I don’t think religion serves as a justifiable reason to be in politics. Does anyone know a number to call to talk to a TST representative office? Thank you all and I apologize for any trouble or problems you may be going through.
We, the European congregations and candidate groups of The Satanic Temple, are deeply devastated by the recent developments in the United States. We see the acts of injustice, the suppression of rights, and the targeting of communities with fear and violence.
To our TST family in te U.S., know this:
+++ You are not alone! Our hearts are with you, and so is our unwavering support! +++
We will not stand by silently. We stand with you. We will fight alongside you - through action, solidarity, and resilience. From here in Europe, we will do everything in our power to strengthen your efforts, amplify your voices, and remind the world that we will not allow our lives or freedoms to be dictated by oppression. We see you. We hear you. We are with you.
Together, we will endure, resist, and rise above.
Hail solidarity! Hail Satan! Hail The Satanic Temple!
On Thursday Ryan Walters the Oklahoma superintendent of public schools will be at Carnegie elementary to lead the students in a prayer. He will be arriving at 9:30 and protestors are expected to arrive around 8:00-9:00. Recently in his kiss ass enforcement he has required students to prove citizenship, something that has never been required to be a student in Oklahoma. Now to put salt in the wound he is holding a prayer session at Carnegie Elementary. Parents have been given paperwork to exempt their children from the prayer but there is no such place for a public school superintendent to hold a prayer session for elementary school aged children especially one who has done nothing for children and is in charge the 48th worst ranked states in education and hasn’t made it better. Like I said if you want to join in the protest be there on the 30th of January, Carnegie elementary Tulsa, Ok. I’ll be in a LPOTL shirt, say what’s up if you see me!
Just found out about the EO that was put in place today https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/01/protecting-children-from-chemical-and-surgical-mutilation/ and as an 18 year old trans person on Medicaid, I kind of feel fucked here. I'm poor and would have no other way to pay for my Healthcare, especially my top surgery which is scheduled for June. And from my understanding, this EO takes effect before then. I live in michigan, and they have some LGBTQ+ protections but no laws stating gender affirming care is a right like other states do. Im nervous, and have my fingers crossed that it gets fought in the courts so I can get the care I need, especially since I'm 18 and legally an adult but according to the EO "children" is defined as anyone under 19. I'm kinda flipping my shit rn and TST is like one of the only organizations I see fighting for healthcare protections on a relatively large scale.
Thought this article would be of interest to TST.
