It's Elemental, My Dear Wiccan: The Elements Turn 2600
by Marty Couch [477 reads]
  The Elements turn 2600.As we head deeper in to the dark (and cold) half of the year, it seems each day I am feeling more my age. But even feeling on the older side myself, it can boggle the mind how old the stuff we are made of (or were thought to be made of) is. So, when we talk of the elements, it seems fair to ask how these ideas came about. And when. Well, fasten your seat belts as we hit the way back machine (Wow, I am old!) ... [more]
Tell It Like It Is - And Make It Count
by Autumn Heartsong [782 reads]
 “I’m not a pussy-foot Pagan; I speak my mind I don’t care if everybody gets mad at me.”“I call it like I see it. If you’ve got a lousy attitude I’m going to tell you about it. That’s what makes me such a terrific high priestess.”“I hate that we’re not friends anymore. I was just trying to help and she got so angry.”Know any of these people? Maybe you’ve made one of those statements yourself.There’s no doubt ... [more]
Labeling Pagans and Other Impossible Tasks!
by Avren [580 reads]
 Elitist. Snob. Know-it-all… These are not names you would normally use to describe the Pagan community. This is the reason many of us filtered in to this diverse, and multi-faceted spiritual path. I felt much battered and bruised by my own self-imposed guilt when I turned from my previous path to God. Truth be told, I prayed to Him and Them the first transitional year. I was too terrified not to! Yet here I am today. I’ve worshiped and practiced ... [more]

- What Can We Do To Minimize "Witch Wars?" by Amy [659 reads]
 We are Druids, Celts, Wiccans, Witches, Heathens, Shamans, Solitaries, and many other names. We are all Pagans. Or, as I once heard it said, we are all denominations of the Pagan faiths.Our people have undergone centuries of persecution. They... [more]
- Thoughts on Paganism by Crick [304 reads]
 As I walk amongst the wild oak trees I ponder on the direction that paganism is now taking. I wonder why a path as ancient as paganism in general and witchcraft in particular is now in a transitional state in the minds of so many folks. In all realit... [more]
- Belief or Knowledge? by Deirdre Hebert [397 reads]
 I like people. It really doesn’t matter much, so long as they are decent people, what they believe. I just like people.So this week, right next to my office, there was a revival / miracle / healing service going on, that was being done by a P... [more]
- I Am A Witch. Now What? by Randy [653 reads]
 I am writing this in response to an increasing number of people young and old who have something in common. They are all new or inexperienced in the Ways of the Wise, Wicca, Shaman, Witch, etc. They all have a similar question, “ Ok I’m a witch. What... [more]
- Conflict II - The Development of Conflict by Samvara0 [128 reads]
 Once conflict has reared its woeful head, a more or less predictable pattern of subsequent developments emerges, depending somewhat on the specific circumstances present in given cases. The general patterns of conflict can be classified by the socio-... [more]
- Should We Mainstream Our Faiths? by Disciple of Oghma [329 reads]
 There are many voices of the day calling for a mainstreaming of the Wiccan and pagan faiths. I believe much of this is a reaction of recently ex Christians or those who, for their many reasons, wish to overthrow the Christian power base. The problem ... [more]
- Religion By Default - Is It Fair? by Luthien [339 reads]
 For a long time there has been a tendency for young people to be lulled into the local default religion without question; but in today’s society, with the Internet, more travel links and an ever-increasing cultural diversity in cities, physical isola... [more]
- Pondering It All... by FoxRain [236 reads]
 Being teased about what color your eyes are, or how you talk, can be incredibly hurtful, yes. But what about being teased about what you believe in?I, in my short years as a Wiccan, haven't been teased on it, mostly because I didn't find the ... [more]
- Like Mind/Group Mind by Julian [Wvox Sponsor] [199 reads]
 The only group mind phenomenon that I have actually experienced in ritual has been the type of group mind found within open circle rituals. There was also a 101 class mind set situation. I also have spoken to many good Witches on the benefits of the ... [more]
