• Kronos, Gatekeeper to Eternity | Jul 06 2010

  As you probably know, Ouranos and Gaia begat Kronos (Romanized as Saturn) who castrated his father. Kronos and Rhea begat Zeus, who overthrew his father in the epic war of the Titanomachy. But there is much more to the story I would like to shed light on. Many have interpreted the stories of Ouranos-Kronos-Zeus as [...]

• On Abundance (or the lack thereof) | May 09 2010

  These times are tough for many people, and they are going to be a lot tougher for a while. We are in an economic storm that started in 2008 and is going to continue for at least the rest of the year. The “recovery” we saw was merely the eye of the hurricane. But does [...]

• Mountain Vision | Dec 31 2009

  I had a vision after our family Yule ritual and saw a great mountain rising up into the sky, beyond where I could see. The mountain was covered with many roads and paths, all meandering their way upward. It was the Mountain of Divinity, though it goes by various names in different religions, including Mount [...]

• Pagan vs Abrahamic Religions Part I: Soul Ownership | Jul 31 2009

  One of the main differences contrasting Pagan religions from Abrahamic religions is the question of soul ownership or will ownership. Abrahamic religions see the choice as being between God and Satan. Pagan religions view it in different terms.

• Storms of Balance: Part II | Mar 21 2008

  Yesterday was Ostara, the Vernal Equinox. It was a very strange and eventful day, reminding me of a previous article I wrote last year about the Equinox, “Storms of Balance“. It was a day of 7-9 inches of wet snowfall here in Aberdeen (after many days with the temperature in the 40s and 50s). The [...]

• 3 Legs of Enlightenment | Dec 30 2007

  There are three parts involved in the journey toward enlightenment, our mind, heart and spirit. All three must develop in order for us to advance. Enlightenment is a three-legged stool. One leg is the mind, the second is the heart and the third is the spirit or soul.

• Wheel Begins Anew | Dec 22 2007

  The newborn sun has arrived!

  Now is the time to stop introspecting and start putting energy and action toward your goals. In my previous article on the Dark Night of the Year, I mentioned using that time for looking within yourself and evaluating what you’ve done during the previous year. I also talked about developing your resolutions for the next year. Now is the time to make those resolutions final and start acting on them.

• Pagan Sin | Dec 01 2007

  I’ve noticed that many Pagans avoid the word “sin” and deny that it exists in a Pagan context. Many say that it is an Abrahamic term that only applies to followers of Christianity, Islam and Judaism. On the contrary, sin is a universal concept that applies to all religions, including the Pagan religions. Dictionary.com defines [...]

• Dark Night of the Year | Nov 24 2007

  This time of year, between Samhain and Yule, is a difficult time. It is a time when most plants (at least in the north) have died, animals are hunkering down for winter, and the universe looks inward. It is the dark night of the year.

• Do the Gods Know Everything? | Nov 11 2007

  Many believe that the Gods are omniscient and omnipotent. While I agree that together, the Gods know and control everything, each God as an individual does not. Instead, each God has a domain They control.
