D is for Deipnon (again!)

Posted on February 15, 2013 by

This was last years D topic too, but it was Hekate’s Deipnon a few days ago and so I saved this brief little post for today! I did my usual ritual in which I cleaned my shrines and cleansed my living … Continue reading →

Posted on February 8, 2013 by

Theogamia began at sundown on Thursday.  It is the ancient Athenian festival in celebration of the marriage of Zeus and Hera. Since Hera has become pretty damn important to me this year, I decided to  make this a big event in my calendar! … Continue reading →

Evil Eye

Posted on May 2, 2012 by

A different worldview

Posted on April 8, 2012 by

I just received a text from my boyfriend. He is your classic agnostic, nominally Christian British male, but his family are very devout Methodists. He is sitting in church as I type this (texting in a holy place during an Easter Sunday is not something I agree … Continue reading →

D is for Deipnon

Posted on February 24, 2012 by

I didn’t do a pagan blog project post last week as I just didn’t have the time. I technically still don’t have time, and so this post does not go into half as much detail as I would have liked … Continue reading →

A call for books!

Posted on February 8, 2012 by

Does anybody know of any good books that deal with things like the ancient greek views of the afterlife, treatment and worship of the dead and so forth? Academic texts if possible. It is becoming apparent that this is something … Continue reading →
