Day the Third: Symbols and icons of this deity. Hunting. He always knew where they would be. He knew the forest like the back of his hand, he knew their tracks. He would read his surroundings – the moved earth, the broken branch, the echo of sound. He never came…

Day the Second: How did you become first aware of this deity? I grew up in the suburb of Herne Hill in Victoria. One day at TAFE, which would be about 11 years ago now, I got bored. Google wasn’t around, so I typed “herne hill” into the best search…

Continue reading →: I’m the only Pagan in the…err…relationship
I couldn’t very well say, “I’m the only Pagan in the Village” because as I’ve mentioned previously, Sydney has a wonderful Pagan community! Although I’m probably the only Pagan in my suburb…does that count? Trends come and go, but one I’ve been noticing on forums and Facebook groups is the,…

Day the First: A basic introduction of the deity. Herne the Hunter is an old British Deity, often associate with Cernunnos and Pan, mainly due to the antlers. They are all very different individuals. He was once a Hunter of King Richard II’s court. He was beloved by the King…

I first stumbled across this idea two months ago. I can’t remember the blog I first saw it on, but when I find it I will post a link to it here (Serpents Labyrinth) This morning at 4.04am Sydney Eastern Standard Time (or thereabouts) it was the official August Full…

I cannot organise a house warming party, let alone a major event. Organising my handfasting was stressful enough. I really just wanted to use this post to thank the Pagan Awareness Network (PAN Inc), in particular the wonderful Pete, for organising such a wonderful evening on Saturday night. It was…

I am (somewhat) out of the broom closet at work! Yay! I had forgotten what it was like to come out of the broom closet. I’ve never really been in it – being Pagan is not something I’ve ever really tried to hide. Alas, starting a new job with new…

Last week I mentioned working on a novel. The 26,000 words (so far) have been printed, and I’ve since re-read through the story for the first time since 2012. I would love some completely fresh eyes to read over this. I have asked in the past, people raise their hand,…

I’m sure I’ve said this before, but I don’t believe I “suffer” from depression any longer. I have days where I go back into that world thanks largely to PMDD (premenstrual dysphoric disorder) which is PMS on crack, but I don’t “suffer” from it anymore. I’m not on medication, and…

If you’ve never heard of Morning Glory Zell-Ravenheart you either haven’t been practicing all that long, you’re not American (I’m not!) or you’ve never really looked outside of your Tradition. She was a pioneer of modern witchcraft who sadly crossed over to the Summerlands on May 13, 2014. She is…
