Witches Beneath A Full April Moon

Last updated on: April 29, 2010 at 5:59 pm   By Star Foster

How can I describe the feeling of being in a cast circle beneath a full moon to someone who has never stood beneath the stars, Witch to Witch? Each element is easily described but the whole experience is something else entirely. Of course, each person experiences it differently but I’d like to share what my experience is like. It begins with bathing. Before you go to circle your cleanse your body, not merely scrubbing dirt and sweat off, but releasing... Read more

Reweaving the Threads

Last updated on: April 29, 2010 at 11:38 am   By krasskova

Andvari transformed my luck; or rather He gave me the initial impetus and then taught me to govern that transformation. That is, in many respects, the secret of the luck Andvari brings: its development (or not) rests with the choices, behaviors and integrity of the individual him or herself. There’s no ‘quick fix’ with Andvari. There is only the slow, steady, honorable reworking and where possible restitution of and for past mistakes. This article explores Andvari and His lessons in luck, money, and personal responsibility. Read more

Inter-faith Coupling

Last updated on: April 29, 2010 at 5:47 am   By muninn

Having your own faith is good – beneficial, even.  But what to do, when your partner/spouse holds different beliefs? My partner, at this moment in time, is best described as agnostic.  He won’t say there isn’t some sort of higher power, but he would never admit to any higher power without copious evidence. I am part of a religion that, if examined topically, ascribes to a bunch of beliefs that don’t make “sense” when applied to an agnostic point of... Read more

The Power of Place

Last updated on: April 28, 2010 at 5:47 am   By krasskova

The land remembers. I know that within modern Paganism and, to a lesser degree, Heathenry, city life is often viewed as somehow less sacred, less connected to the natural rhythms and cycles of nature than rural life. And in some cases, that may be true, but I have found over the years that there is powerful magic inherent in cities – just as much as may be found in the most deserted of country dwellings. This article explores the power of the land and its place in Pagan practice. Read more

Beltane Twitter Contest!

Last updated on: April 27, 2010 at 9:47 am   By Star Foster

We’re just a few days from Beltane and with all this jazzy spring energy bouncing around we’re going to have a Twitter contest! For the majority of Pagans Beltane and Samhain are the major holidays. The ones you just don’t skip. Maybe you let Mabon slide by or had to work on Imbolc, but you make time for Beltane and Samhain. Beltane is a fire festival that stirs the blood and imagination. The body awakens with the trees and bears... Read more

Pagan Soup: MayDay,”Born Free” & MegaReligion=MegaTron?

May Day! Beltane! Walpurgis Night! Floralia! The fields and trees are joyously green. The world is lushly sensual and lavishly happy. The wind, rain and sun all wax strong and you find yourself itching to be outside as much as possible. Every year Spring rushes headlong into Summer full of heady intoxication and promise.
