Way Of The Wyrd? Heard of it.... never read it. There are still a lot of books I've not gotten around to previewing. Too little money to ever invest in getting everything that catches your eye, unfortunately.


Scott Cunningham I always saw as the older brother type by his style of writing. Silver Ravenwolf.....


I don't like labeling people, or saying nasty things about them behind their backs. I'd rather not resort to that if i can help avoid it. Ms Ravenwolf is.... Ms Ravenwolf, and let's just leave it at that, okay?


One of my favorite authors, aside from Mr Cunningham, is D. J. Conway. I have a bunch of her books too, including Animal Magick. I even sent her a letter.... and got a reply back! There are authors who don't even do that. This was a good number of years ago, and the letter is buried among my books boxed up in the basement. Not going to dig it up now.


Way of The Wyrd...... might have to google that one for a review.

Have we any ideas for rankings here yet? As in you're an Alchemist, what would the other rankings be?

[Miroku]

I think beginners should be called Dabblers, but that's not my call to make .

[Golden Nightmare]

I was think for rankings that you guys just put up what you are interested in..I put Alchemist because that is what I'm labeling myself...

I've got a little assignment for you guys..well just fun things I guess (I had fun answering them) I have a book that has questions and stuff for you to answer and I'm going to post up the first two. ^^

1.) Which season of the year is your favorite? What do you remember from your childhood about this season that has special meaning for you? How do you celebrate this season now?

2.) Have you ever been to a Pagan holiday ritual? If so, what did you think? Describe what occurred in the ritual and what you liked about it.

you can answer 'em here or in your blog up to you guys..but my stuff is going to be in both...here are my answers..


1.) My favorite season would have to be fall, it’s not too hot or cold where I am now and I can enjoy the outdoors without suffocating from excruciating heat. I don’t remember much about this season for it to have special meaning to me. I like it because I do, not to mention Halloween is in fall. That’s the only real way I used to celebrate it was by dressing up and scaring the crud out of little kids. (I’m terrible I know. . . . ) but now, as often as I can and maybe I can hold one of my own (Maybe) is by going to a Pagan Drum Circle for Samhain.

2.) As I said in the question above, I have been to a ritual. It was the Pagan Drum Circle and I loved every moment of it! First they explained to everyone what the ritual was for and why they were holding it and the meaning of Samhain, and then they called the quarters. They didn’t make anyone participate that didn’t want to, which was good in my case because my Aunt was with me. (She’s Catholic) Then they let people borrow drums or use their own and they started drumming and people got up and danced around the altar.
(Which I forgot to mention they cleansed first…..don’t forget that!) There was even a group of tourists that were sightseeing and they got involved and started to dance around. It was awkward for me at first but yet, it felt like I actually belonged.

1.) Mines got to be Winter, one of my earliest memories is walking through a forest, all the ground and parts of the trees iced with snow and the wonderful pure silence, just the crunch of my boots in the snow and misted breath escaping my mouth... Sounds a bit lyrical, but theres no way i can tell you how amazing it was and how much its impacted my sense of the world and the forces in it.

2.) Ive been to the Beltane Fire Festival in Edinburgh ontop of Carlton Hill, it was fantastic, bonfires, the occasional person dressed up as a druid and lots of celebration the night was so cold, the fires so hot and gaia somewhere inbetween
