Coming Home To Paganism
Celebrating the Pagan Soul is a powerful tribute to the lives and experience of the millions who call themselves Wiccan, Druids, Neo-Pagans, and Witches. Earth religionists have reconstructed ancient paths to link themselves more closely to their ancestors, created vibrant communities on and off the Web, and influenced by modern environmentalism, connected deeply to Mother Earth. Their movement, based on individualism and equality, has generated the fastest growing religions in the world.
In this compilation of over sixty writings, Laura Wildman brings the hearts, minds, and souls of Pagans together to be joyously shared. Included in her collection are stories by Starhawk, Margot Adler, Francesca De Grandis, Judy Harrow, Trish Telesco, Lexa Rosean, M. Macha NightMare, Lady Rhea, Oberon Zall-Ravenheart, Ellen Evert Hopman and many more. Witness their struggles and understand the thoughts and insights on lives lived in magic, where:
- A walk in the darkness shows one woman her inner light
- Outsider and mainstream American meet on a street near Ground Zero and learn what it means to be part of a greater community
- Two faiths, Wicca and Quaker, meet and merge into a greater whole for one couple
- A crystal ball forever changes the way a young woman will lead her life
- A meeting with Gerald Gardner breaks expectations, and reveals the person beyond the legends
A spellbinding and enlightening journey into experience, hope, and dreams, Celebrating the Pagan Soul will show everyone the empowering possibilities of life and validate those already on the seeker’s path.
Laura Wildman is a Third Degree Gardnerian Witch trained in the Proteus tradition and co-founder of New Moon, a non-profit, interfaith Pagan networking organization. The author of What’s Your Wicca IQ? and Wiccan Meditations, Wildman lives in western Massachusetts, where she is High Priestess of the Apple and Oak coven.
