A random collection of thoughts on a variety of topics
This week’s Pagan Blog Post is about Hurts. Not the kind of hurt you get when you fall down, but the kind of hurt that gets into a child’s mind and changes the way they view the world. You may wonder what this has to do with magic. In order to perform magic fully, you…
Over my years of studying, and not studying, witchcraft, I keep coming back to the idea of grounding. It’s a very basic thing, but is so incredibly useful! One might even say, essential. My fellow Pagan Blog Project blogger, Sharmonia talks about Grounding this week as well and I have to agree with her. Being…
This week for the first ‘G’ week on the Pagan Blog Project, I’d like to write about Good Will. Many people expect pagan elders to provide training or services for free, out of good will. While I agree that we should do what we can to better the experience and life of our fellow man,…
For today’s post for the Pagan Blog Project, I was going to write about Freyr to balance my post about Freya last week, but instead life hit me over the head and I have a new topic. Today’s post is about failure and frustration. I’ve had a rough week this week with multiple, unexpected…
A few months ago, the goddess Freya called to me at a ritual at Stone City last year. Since then I’ve worked with her a bit and done some research on her. Freya is one of the Vanir who went to Asgard as a diplomatic hostage in the war between the Vanir and Aseir. She…
For some reason E is giving me a hard time in the Pagan Blog Project .. with so many options, you’d have thought that it would be easy. I dread what happens when we reach Q! Today I would like to talk about what we do everyday. I don’t mean the whole sleep-eat-shower-sex (if we’re…
There are so many different ways to define the elements and most of it depends on what traditions you follow. Wiccans are often heavily involved with the elements, using them to define their working circles as well as invoking them in their work. Other traditional witches that I’ve known use the associations and energies of the elements in their working.
So I’m late with this week’s blog post for D, and I couldn’t decide what to write it on. There are a lot of different topics to choose from, but given my last few months I think that a “Duh” is in order. There are those times where you think you can do it, you…
As today’s Pagan Blog Project post I’d like to discuss our, well my, relationship with Deity. There are may different definitions of Deity. Some people believe in the single deity; or that all gods are different facets of one god; or that all the gods are individuals; or they’re not really divine and are really…
Today I’d like to talk about community. It seems to be a very appropriate subject for the Pagan Blog Project which is all about building the online pagan community. In the last year, I have been getting more involved with the local and online pagan communities. I’ve joined a local ADF grove, a local working…
