Last updated on: November 5, 2011 at 3:24 am By Star Foster

[Teo Bishop is a Druid hailing from Denver, CO. You can find his blog at Bishop in the Grove.] As a long-time follower of the Wild Hunt, I’ve found it encouraging to read posts about the different ways Pagans across the country are gathering, celebrating, and organizing. The Pagan community, from my experience, is a charitable one. We have a real desire to take care of our own, but we’re also willing to reach out to others who may not... Read more

Tomorrow I’ll be on a flight to Maryland for the 2011 FaerieCon event, at which I’ll be conducting interviews, taking pictures, and moderating panel discussions (in addition to seeing Qntal in concert).

Steve Beshear sat cross legged on a white cushion for an hour in what may be the first bhoomi poojan ceremony held in Kentucky. He hopes it’s not the last, the governor... Read more

Halloween Hangover (Link Roundup)

Last updated on: November 1, 2011 at 2:47 pm By Jason Pitzl-Waters

Halloween just happened, and if you’re Pagan know what that means: a flood of “meet the Witches/Pagans” articles from a variety of media outlets. I would normally unleash the hounds, but they had a long night, so I’ll do my best to personally catch you up on the busiest media season for our family of faiths.
