I mean, not probably anymore; it really is a Pagan Pride Day recap now. I’m just harkening (harking?) back to the Going Full Ravenclaw post I made a few days ago. So, ok. Short answer: I’ve had better days. I’ve had a lot of better days. Long answer: the day was a combination of good …

The Pagan Unity Campaign: why I joined, why I left, and why I’m tired of hearing how horrible all PUCers are
The Pagan Unity Campaign was a group I was part of for a few years during and immediately after high school. I was a state chair for them, and I avidly participated in the campaigns we ran. The PUC was a political campaign. The goal? To get elected officials to realize that they had pagan …
Entheogens
Yeah, so, I use entheogens. If you ask some people, this makes me a bad, bad person. Seriously. There are people who believe that anyone who ever does any alcohol or drugs or any sort of mind-altering substance at all is contributing to the downfall of our society; we are the moral decay at the …
Going Full Ravenclaw, part 3
I am obviously way behind on all of this, but I want to see if I can actually finish planning all the posts and perhaps writing some of them? Or, at the very least, planning them and then writing something completely different. I’ve already written a different D post from what I originally planned (Doors); …
Change to the blog-shrines
In the sidebar you might notice my list of dedication blogs, or blog shrines. For the longest time they were at Blogspot. I’ve moved them to WordPress.com, because so long as they’re at Blogspot I’ll never update them. I hardly go to Blogspot these days because the scripts it runs make my computer have a …
Calendars
I love calendars. About as much as I love figuring out relationships. I guess they’re sort of the same thing. When I was a kid I was obsessed with how people were related. I read all I could about our family tree, researching our genealogy as much as I could. I was also obsessed with …
Dealing with Disapproving Ancestors
When I first moved into this apartment — the apartment that belonged to my Oma for 20 years — I tried to keep a spiritual/religious/witchcraft life going. It wasn’t easy. It never felt right, and it seemed that no matter what I did spiritually or religiously, I never got centred. Not to mention, a ton …
Re-reading Evolutionary Witchcraft
Which I never really finished the first time I read it, anyway. I have this problem with practical books that are full of exercises to do. I don’t finish the book before I start doing the exercises, and then I stop doing the exercises, and forget about the book. I’ve decided I should read through …
I AN’T DEAD
This isn’t really a post, more of a quick note to let you all know I’m still alive and planning on blogging again. I’m in a class right now and I have to travel to the Island each week to attend, so it’s sapping most of my spoons. On top of that, I’m in the …
Hallowing: A (Short) Guide to Making Sacred
The idea of hallowing something, or making it sacred, is an interesting one to me. On the one hand, I believe that everything is already sacred — the sacred is in the profane, the mystic in the mundane. On the other hand, I definitely think it’s possible to make something sacred. And somehow these two …
