	Sabbat (neopaganism) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In the Wiccan form of neopaganism, a Sabbat is one of the eight major seasonal festivals which make up the Wheel of the Year.
		The word derives from Old English "sabat", from Old French "sabbat", from Latin "sabbatum", from Greek "sabbaton" (or sa`baton), from Hebrew "shabbat" - to cease or rest - the same roots as "Sabbath (Christian)" or "Shabbat (Judaism)".
		It was used during the European witch trials for supposed gatherings of witches engaging in Devil worship; such gatherings were earlier referred to as "synagogues of Satan".

		Gli otto sabbat segnano otto tappe lungo il percorso dell'anno e simbolizzano altrettante tappe nella vita del Dio, che nasce dalla Dea, cresce fino a diventare adulto, si accoppia con lei, regna come re durante l'estate per poi indebolirsi e morire, dando inizio al nuovo anno.

	The SF Site Featured Review: Guide to the Sabbat
		Sabbat Primer 101 (heavily simplified): the Sabbat is a sect of vampires (no fussy "Kindred" for them -- they know what they are and don't shy from it) that rebelled against their elders, rejecting their games and actively declaring war on them.
		Yes, the vampires of Sabbat were the wild and bloody creatures they had always been portrayed as, but the Sabbat also had a deeply ritual side and a strong hierarchy that kept the anarchic sect from flying apart.
		The rituals are reduced to game stats and lose some of their mystery, which is unfortunate because the ritualism of the Sabbat was one of my favourite things about it and what really underscored the paradox of the sect in my mind.
