Pagans Is Broke These Days: Introduction

For many, being a Pagan or Heathen can be an expensive path, what with the cost of tools (even the materials to make one’s own can get costly), books (especially some of the more esoteric volumes–and don’t even get me started on Llewellyn), trying to make it to the occasional gathering, and so on, funds […]

Finally did it

I killed my facebook account. I am finally free (or will be, once the request is processed in two weeks) of the tentacles of Mark what-his-name.

Friendship Redefined, Part 2–Or, Culling the Weak

There are two things that I require from my friends, and I don’t think they are unreasonable, especially since they go hand-in-hand: loyalty and honesty. There was a time when I wasn’t the most honest or loyal friend in the world, this I will admit freely. I was guilty of some very heinous actions back […]
