Welcoming the May-O - Sunday, May 3rd 2009 11:50 PM

The First Decade (and a half) Of Many - Sunday, April 26th 2009 11:55 PM
As with any High Day, the week before is a flurry of activity for me, Beltaine perhaps moreso since there's so much more involved. Besides the ritual planning on Tuesday night,...

On Paganism and Amorphous Blobs - Sunday, March 1st 2009 11:10 PM
I wouldn’t exactly be the first person to wonder what defines “the Pagan community”. Or the hundredth. Or even the hundred thousandth. It seems to be the nature of our...
Have You Hugged Your River Lately? - Sunday, February 22nd 2009 10:50 PM
Alas, I know I promised an article about the nature of the "Pagan community" and my (and our Grove’s) role in it, but I'm not feeling up to it right now. Maybe I went and...
I've Brought You Some Roses Mistaken For Lilies - Sunday, February 15th 2009 11:20 PM

Gods, Odds and Sods? - Monday, January 12th 2009 1:05 AM

Working With Winter, Planning For Spring - Sunday, January 4th 2009 11:40 PM
So now the winter is hard upon us. Well, not too hard, it definitely felt like it was above freezing when I went outside this afternoon, but it's definitely not autumn any...
The Meta-Article, or, Blog on Blog - Sunday, December 28th 2008 3:30 PM
