Samhain and Remembrance

Last updated on: November 4, 2014 at 5:55 am   By Yvonne Aburrow

The Pagan festivals are less about a single day when we reflect on or celebrate a particular aspect of the cycle of life, death, and rebirth, and more about the the high watermark of the ebb and flow of a tide of energy. But the season of remembrance is not at an end. The tide of Samhain ebbs until it rises again as the tide of rebirth at Yule. And on the way to the turning of the tide, there is Remembrance Day on 11th November. I don’t know how many Pagans actually do ritual for 11th November, but I am sure many of us will be wearing poppies - red, white, or mauve, or all three. Read more

Ancestor Work: It’s Not Always About “Honoring”

Last updated on: October 31, 2014 at 2:09 pm   By Christine Kraemer

Ancestor work is not always about remembering the positive. Sometimes, it can be about demanding justice, making reparations, or healing wounds. Read more

Beloved dead

Last updated on: December 26, 2014 at 9:59 am   By Yvonne Aburrow

Why so few memories of my grandpa? Because my parents grew up in the Exclusive Brethren, and left that group in 1976. This meant that my grandparents were forbidden to have any contact with us after we had left. I only found out by accident in 1996 that my grandpa had died. I wonder what he would have thought of this blogpost. Read more

Ancestors

There are different types of ancestors - family members, ancestors of spirit, ancestors of place, the Beloved Dead, members of your tradition who have passed on. We honour them because they shaped us and our world, and without them it would be very different. Read more

When Storymaking Fails: Towards a Non-Narrative Theology

Last updated on: February 19, 2015 at 4:06 pm   By Sarah Sadie

I distrust any religion that hands its followers too many answers. Answers close down the conversation, they take us from the journey to the idea of arrival, of finish line. Read more
