Guest Post: Why I Believe It’s Time For ALL of Us To Start Working With Ancestors
Last updated on: May 16, 2012 at 4:31 pm By Crystal Blanton
By Luna Pantera Greetings. I have been working on this essay/blog for several months.I wanted to wait until the anger subsided, and if I waited for that I would never get this piece written! Once again I received not only inspiration, but also strength from Crystal Blanton, who I’ve only recently gotten to know from working with her on her anthology “Shades of Faith: Minority Voices in Paganism” where I contributed a poem. I was originally going to entitle... Read more

Magical Green Elephants: Pagan Finance
Last updated on: May 16, 2012 at 4:39 pm By Pythia Theocritos
It seems like pagans only talk about money when someone is attempting to raise funds and, quite frankly, that isn’t enough. Many pagans are on low incomes, one income, or no regular income, but still need to find ways to build assets, achieve some form of financial security, and, with time, create something they can pass on to their children. Please bear in mind, I am not a finance professional. I’m just a chick with a love of finance and... Read more

An American Love Story: In Black and White
Last updated on: May 7, 2012 at 7:36 pm By Pythia Theocritos
An American Love Story in Black and White We sat across from one another; peach to cinnamon, brown to green, brown to black and in our eyes were love and misunderstandings. We would never fully see things from the other’s point of view. Sure, we could listen and create the kind of dialogue not fit for polite company, but there would always be that barrier, the diverging narratives of paths we never got to choose. Like fate our...

Turn up the Megaphone; The Gods are Speaking
Last updated on: May 1, 2012 at 12:52 am By Crystal Blanton
I am angry. I am enraged at the world and all the problems within it. I am offended by the lack of justice and I am confused. I am not confused on my position in all the madness that I hear, feel, see and experience but I am confused at how to be the Wiccan High Priestess that I am and to feel the intense emotion that I feel without a balance or way of understanding it. How to balance... Read more

Respecting Diversity: What does this mean?
Last updated on: March 24, 2012 at 4:48 am By Crystal Blanton
After the past several years of discussions around diversity and what it means to respect diversity, I feel this has become almost a cliche stamp that is spoken as if it is a universal concept and yet it is not. We all know the last two years of conflict at Pantheacon regarding that of transgender inclusion within rituals. There are plenty other situations where the concept of diversity has been assessed to have different meanings. There seems to be a... Read more

Have You Seen Me?
Last updated on: February 24, 2012 at 6:53 pm By Pythia Theocritos
I remember the first time I picked up Faerie Magazine ™. “I like faeries!” I chirped, excitement bubbling through as I thumbed the glossy pages. My husband rolled his eyes and walked away, unwilling to share in, what I thought, was a great find. But as one page turned into another, I felt that sinking pit in my stomach. You would not find me there. Every picture, every drawing, every cultural nuance announced boldly This magazine is Eurocentric. I... Read more

To Celebrate or Separate in Hate; I Choose the First
Last updated on: February 23, 2012 at 2:16 am By Crystal Blanton
Discrimination is not a foreign concept. It is one that many different types of people have experienced and often times have led to great violence and pain within the world. It is not a concept that is likely to go away within human behavior and it is a quite complex concept that has become interwoven into the normal operation of society. It is not ok and yet it is something we all experience and have done to others. I am... Read more

Lessons from Releasing in Life
Last updated on: January 29, 2012 at 4:00 am By Crystal Blanton
She was a force, both of strength and love. She taught me to be who I am and yet it took a while to realize that. She was born on Samhain and so it is so natural to celebrate her on that day; both for her birthday and also because the veil is thin. She comes to me then. But in celebrating her life, I also recognize her death… and path to her rebirth. Two years have passed since she... Read more

The Open-Minded Fallacy
Last updated on: January 28, 2012 at 6:59 pm By Pythia Theocritos
This blog-post comes straight from my gut and is the subject of a recent discussion I got to have with the wonderful Brett Hillman during a, too brief, Skype conversation a few nights ago. It’s a subject near, and dear, to my heart only in that it makes me chuckle whenever I see someone proudly bandy the concept about. So here goes; No one should have to say how open-minded they are. I’m probably alone in this belief or... Read more
